Farewell Adam Morrison. You may not have seen the court much during the preseason, but your brief time with the Blazers will be remembered by basketball fans in the Northwest. You had a large group...

Podcast of Schonely's call
1Apparently you can download the entire second half with Schonely's call at Blazers.com. You can also stream it at http://blog.oregonlive.com/blazers/2009/10/audio_bill_schonely_calls_the.html Maybe someone can edit together a mix of Schonely's best calls from last night?

Just be glad the Blazers didn't do this again

Covering the tourney at the Rose Garden
This weekend I experienced probably the biggest thrill in my short career as a college journalist: I got to cover the Gonzaga Bulldogs at the Rose Garden for the first two rounds of the tournament. ...
No love for the ladies?
Come on, Courtney Vandersloot wins WCC player of the year, and her, Heather Bowman, and Vivian Frieson were named First-Team All-WCC! Hell, even Kelly Bowen was named to the all-freshman team! J...

Wikipedia cracks me up
4I love wikipedia, because anyone can go on and edit whatever they want. Often you're going to find how someone really feels about the subject, including Sacramento King Spencer Hawes. "Hawes played center at Seattle Prep, where his questionable leadership skills caused the team to miss the state tournament entirely in 2005 (despite playing alongside fellow future NBA top-ten draft pick Martell Webster)." And then later... "Hawes is an ignorant, conservative Republican and critic of Al Gore's documentary An Inconvenient Truth." Anyone seen other random Wikipedia entries for NBA players, possibly Blazers?

Saw Petteri Koponen play tonight
The Gonzaga Bulldogs were playing an intersquad scrimmage tonight in front of the fans, and I happened to go just to check out next year's team. As I watched the first game, I noticed a player out...
Save Our Sonics
