Born Oregonian here.

I became a fan of the NBA, and more importantly the Portland Trailblazers, back in the Drexler/Porter/Kersey/Buck/Uncle Cliffy/Duckworth era. We've experienced a lot of hope and disappointment since then. I really like where Portland's positioned themselves this offseason, and look forward to a young and up-and-coming team that's bound to struggle, show signs of greatness, but most importantly, grow together by creating chemistry!

I have two adorable children, a beautiful wife, I love music (blues, soul, rock, punk, metal, jazz) and the instruments that create it, bicycling (two-wheeled commuter here), the Blazers, and expanding my mind with knowledge.

Worked for Lefty's Pizzeria & Blues Club, from 2004 to 2006. Attended Roberto-Venn School of Luthiery in 2006, and graduated with honors. Worked for Collings Guitars (Electric Neck Dept.) from 2006-2009. Currently attending Portland Community College, for a career modification, in Machine Manufacturing Technology. If anyone knows of work opportunities in the music business or manufacturing field, hit me up. I work hard, fast, and with a purpose!

SHORT-TERM GOAL: get a better paying job to support my family and watch the Trailblazers build a competitive brand.

LONG-TERM GOAL: start a musical instrument production company and watch the Portland Trailblazers win multiple titles!

STEP 1 - Are we getting enough in return?, Step 2 - Probably not enough for PHX, Step 3A - Maybe, Step 3B - No

And Dwight (off the record), if you have any animosity towards the Lakers and are unaware, Portland fans are big-time Laker haters.
