Great Photo!
If anyone pictured here feels like it, I would enjoy putting the screen name with the face. I’m sure everyone would understand if you wanted to remain mysterious however. I assume that was taken at the opening night game?
Heres a little Help
Tom in Hawaii is the Guy in the Gray T-shirt
Twiggs aka Emily is giving the peace sign
Sophia is the pretty face in the middle
Toms wife (4gotname) is up front.
Roysblazers aka Cuda is wearing the Red hat in the back left
Andy is the guy in the middle with the look of bewilderment on his face!
Outlaw fan on his toes in the back playing pop goes the weasel.
The rest are guys we met at the bar! and future BEdgers if we did our job!
Why shouldn't I work for the N.S.A.? That's a tough one, but I'll take a shot. Say I'm working at N.S.A. Somebody puts a code on my desk, something nobody else can break. Maybe I take a shot at it and maybe I break it. And I'm real happy with myself, 'cause I did my job well. But maybe that code was the location of some rebel army in North Africa or the Middle East. Once they have that location, they bomb the village where the rebels were hiding and fifteen hundred people I never met, never had no problem with, get killed. Now the politicians are sayin', "Oh, send in the Marines to secure the area" 'cause they don't give a $hit. It won't be their kid over there, gettin' shot. Just like it wasn't them when their number got called, 'cause they were pullin' a tour in the National Guard. It'll be some kid from Southie takin' shrapnel in the a$$ n he comes back to find that the plant he used to work at got exported to the country he just got back from. And the guy who put the shrapnel in his ass got his old job, 'cause he'll work for fifteen cents a day and no bathroom breaks. Meanwhile, he realizes the only reason he was over there in the first place was so we could install a government that would sell us oil at a good price. And, of course, the oil companies used the skirmish over there to scare up domestic oil prices. A cute little ancillary benefit for them, but it ain't helping my buddy at two-fifty a gallon. And they're takin' their sweet time bringin' the oil back, of course, and maybe even took the liberty of hiring an alcoholic skipper who likes to drink martinis and fukin' play slalom with the icebergs, and it ain't too long 'til he hits one, spills the oil and kills all the sea life in the North Atlantic. So now my buddy's out of work and he can't afford to drive, so he's got to walk to the fukin' job interviews, which sucks 'cause the shrapnel in his ass is givin' him chronic hemorrhoids. And meanwhile he's starvin', 'cause every time he tries to get a bite to eat, the only blue plate special they're servin' is North Atlantic scrod with Quaker State. So what did I think? I'm holdin' out for somethin' better. I figure fuk it, while I'm at it why not just shoot my buddy, take his job, give it to his sworn enemy, hike up gas prices, bomb a village, club a baby seal, hit the hash pipe and join the National Guard? I could be elected president.
These are the beautiful people of The BEdge
As are we all 
Elizabeth had a partner and he had a rap from the cops, Him and Lenny Suckerpunch were just out Tooling around
I was in town for a wedding last Saturday too
The best quote of the night was from Andy. He said, “What’s the deal with the ‘in Hawaii?’” I had to show him my ID to prove I live here. My wife’s name is Khara.

Do you just love paradise-like beaches
and beautiful sunsets?
Or why don’t you just move to Portland?

wait, portland isn't paradise like beaches
and beautiful sunsets?
He who laughs last thinks slowest.
Cool pic.
Only person I recognized was Sophia until I read the posted who’s who. And yes Sophia is a pretty face. Safe bet, the pic is taken at the Rose Garden? Great pic. Blazers Edgers are the best.

I walked right past Tom last night
If I had looked at his boobs and saw Blazersedge.com I would have said hi.

Wished I coulda been there. Looks like you BE’ers had a great time! Here’s a couple pics of our my crews ‘pregame warm up’.
GO BLAZERS!

It was Lots o fun :)

My wife and I recently moved to So Cal
We’re dying to go to a game this season, but it’ll mean a lot of effort given the distance. If there’s any kind of meet involved, that just makes it doubly worth it for us, as we’d love to be a part of it. Maybe even get group tickets (I think you get a discount at ten). The earlier there’s a date for the next meet, the more likely we can be involved. :)
Yeah I think its going to become a more regular thing.
McFaddens is right next to the max and it is eaasy to just hop on and ride to the RG.

Dear Ben, you didn't miss anything, we had no fun and lost the game
well with a sarcastic tone (dictated by the italy font) I can say I had a decent time on friday night…I only got to meet up with some immediate friends, sip some tasty brew, get grabbed on the arm by a fellow maniac fan when we took shots, high five strangers when we hit those said shots, and hug her and rejoice when the game ended in the outcome I had dreamed of..Dear Zaruga, I am so excited to be a part of this BEdge community and look forward to meeting you and yours at the home game of your choice, I go to all of them, and hopefully we won’t have any fun, and will loose in embarassing fashion, and not get free taco bell sustenance…Really a horrificly ghoulish good time, we shall not have, again…

i lost my free chalupa ticket...
…from that special preseason opener where rudy healed the world, and joel got 50 rebounds. i doubt i will get another on thursday but if we score 100 against the rockets, we could definitely win.
Y'all look like drunk, happy teenagers.
The photo must have been taken after the game.
Andy scares me.

Nope. At the pre-funk~
We drank a LOT last night
When asked about his thoughts during the Olympic games about playing against Kobe Bryant and Dwight Howard, Rudy responded "My first thought was respect. My second thought was to kick their ass".
Man I love him.
whoo andy scares me too
he looks like he had WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY too many red bulls mixed with alcohol
He who laughs last thinks slowest.
deers, sheep, miledanimals and prezofdeath's, lend me your ears, you guys scare me
first of all, people who I have never met in person, but talk about me, and refer to me on an online community I have joined, scare me, actually, I’m petrified! This Andy lad, let me tell you about him. He was there, don’t be jealous, he knows he looks good, don’t be jealous, he also knows he looks better when he doesn’t do the normal “smile for photo op” pose. He likes to look animated, even if he hasn’t had one single red bull and crater lake vodka, I did have a few local pints, MacTarnahans, Mcmenamins before I got downtown, and some Bend Brew like Mirror pond, but not once did I think you guys were scary for not showing up and only participating in conversation online, or using photos of animated avatars or sock puppets to hide your own scary good looks, so from now on, i’m showing me on my avatar, and you can say I’m scary in the face, or you can say I’m scary to my face, but no more shall you say I’m scary on the BEdge, cause come on, i’m a nice guy, and your right, this avatar of the kid with the middle finger flying is obviously not instilling enough fear into your hearts…

I am actually scared of all children.

I wish I could make love to every single one of you
Right this second.

Mortimer
You're scaring me more than Andy.

Andy is one rosy cheeked bastard
I was showing the picture above to my fiancee and pointing people out, and she said “who’s that kid? He has the rosiest cheeks I’ve ever seen”. I agreed, and said he looked exactly as I pictured him.
And that ain’t a tease or nuthin, Andy just looks like Andy!
Morty
Andy's cheeks are like their own little city of roses
I mean, dang… they look more supple and rashy that a baby’s skin.
by Bust a Bucket on Nov 2, 2008 2:01 PM PST up reply actions
His cheeks are even rosier
than a baby’s behind when it has diaper rash. They look like the diaper rash has slap-cheek disease. But that’s neither here nor there. I was referring to his evil clown expression.
