Homecoming Game
Oy. The worst road trip of the year is over. The Blazers are on a plane headed for PDX. Seven games. Two sets of back to backs. Memphis/Miami and then the brutal Philly/Washington duo. Sebastian Telfair probably learned more than he ever wanted to know about his defensive liabilities trying to keep up with Allen Iverson on Tuesday and Gilbert Arenas today. Not to mention the drama of competing against his cousin Stephon Marbury one night and the guy who's job he stole, Damon Stoudamire, the next. On their turf. After long plane rides. Shockingly, the Trailblazers actually won two of the seven games and came close in a few more. The shellackings were there too of course including an unwatchable rout in Philiadelphia that I'd rather not talk about thank you very much. This Friday, two whole weeks since they were last seen at the Rose Garden, the Blazers are coming home.
And I'm sorry Tim, but I'm taking my girl.
"ahem...whipped!"
It'd be nice if they could play a team like the Raptors to work out the kinks on. Unfortunately they'll have to deal with Jermaine O'Neal and the Indiana Pacers. Looking at my handy dandy Taco Bell Blazers pocket schedule, I see that December looks like a great month for Blazer fanatacism. And Seeing as how I'm a devout progressive secularist intent on destroying American Christianity it seems like the perfect way for me to desecrate the sacred holiday of Christmas is to remove all mentions of "Christ" or "Santa Claus" from my vocabulary and replace it with worship of Joel "Tha Vanilla Gorilla" Przybilla. I'm down to go to any of the home games and I will be turning my TV room into the Temple-of-Blazerdom for the away games, all but one of which will be on broadcast TV. All Flossblog readers are more than welcome to join me at the Garden or drop by the house come game time. I do have dope tickets for 3 games this month for one flossblogger to accompany me to see Minnesota, Seattle, and Philadelphia. Tim currently has dibs on the Minnesota game.
"ahem...jealous?"
But Ray "Jesus Shuttlesworth" Allen, and the two A.I.'s (Allen Iverson and Andre Ingoudala) are still up for grabs. To whet your appetite, here's the View:
Ain't she perty?
