PrintVerbatim from the Blazers...
Brandon Roy (torn tendon right little finger); Nicolas Batum (hyper extended right knee); and Travis Outlaw (sore hip and lower back/buttocks contusion) are all probable tonight.
Do not google image search "buttocks contusion." Even with safe search on. Trust me.

KP said on Courtside last night
that Brandon’s finger will be in a splint for 6 WEEKS!
Does that concern anyone? It does me.
yeah me too… let’s give him 2 games with it on to see how he plays with it before we get too worried though… what really worries me is the potential for re-injury given how hard he takes the ball…
wonder what effect if any it has on our reliance on the 1 4 down the stretch… will be very interesting to track that…

He'll just go left more

And since everyone knows
he’s going left anyway, and can’t do anything about it, it doesn’t matter at all.
Do you like asparagus?
yea especially considering
I had my thumb jammed while playing basketball and it hurt like a mutha freak about 5 days ago and it is almost fully healed now. 6 weeks must had been much more severe but idk if pinkies are different case.
"All our holes," says shooting guard Brandon Roy, a surprise All-Star last year in his second season, "are holes that Greg is going to plug."
If Kobe can play 2 seasons with a broken finger
Brandon could go SIX seasons.
Six weeks is nuttin’, honey.
I think I can only add "The NBA, where caring for everybody but the fans happens". --amlmart1
my favorite was the borat picture lol of course he would be on there

Nic Hyperextended his knee? Isn't that like, really serious?
So clearly Nic went Sledding … Brandon will play I have no doubt. And Travis…. well I wasn’t planning on him being here.
Crap 4 in a row is a negative BIG NEGATIVE… LMA Joel O.D.E.N… STEP YOUR GAME UP!

I had a feeling you'd get your panties in a wad if and when you read that...
It can be bad if major. It’s probably just sore, though.
It’s like, sorta serious, ya’ know?

my email is ...
mmm, I’d better not.
Send it to the Bat Phone. Let Ben decide if it’s interesting enough for the world to know.

I don't suppose you roll commando, do you?
If so, that’s cool. Can’t have any panty lines n’ all.
You gotta go commando once in a while, it’s good for your health.

I just watched Basic Instinct for the first time. Maybe she’s pulling a Sharon Stone.

Ok since you started it...
I was gonna answer:
" Who says I;m wearing any?"
Your comment was asking for it..

FYI
Victoria Secret is having 5 panties for 25 dollar sale going on right now. My buddy picked up some for his wife when I was shopping at Washington Square the other day. He also asked the clerk if they had any that would fit me. Good times.
Well, I could be wrong, but I believe diversity is an old, old wooden ship that was used during the Civil War era.
FYI- they always have panties for a deal like that...
just market it during Xmas..

I think playing SF for the Blazers is bad for your health
The five guys who have played the most small forward minutes for the Blazers in the last couple years are all injured.
James Jones – OUT
Webster – OUT
Outlaw – Day-to-day
Batum – Day-to-day
Roy – Day-to-day
"Brandon Roy, that man is unstoppable, it's like he's playing NBA Live." - Anthony Johnson
Warning!
Playing small forward for the Portland Trail Blazers may be as dangerous as being the drummer for Spinal Tap.
Yikes
So with Martell down already, that’s 3 more guys who see varying levels of time at the 3 with injuries. The Blazers are deep, but let’s not push it…
Bayless has been testing the fences for weaknesses
Haha...
Thanks for the advice Ben…the temptation to google any crazy malady involving the “buttox” is almost too much for me:)
I didn't mean to turn you on
a good test
is to see if the team can win w/out roy boy. what was the balzers records last year w/out him? of the top of your blazer-hat-adorned head anyone?
Good thing Roy....
…likes to use his left hand around the basket. The pinkie will probably throw off his jumper but I think he’ll get used to it. I think he should just go Ronnie Lott and cut it off!
I now go by RMC Brannon. That's right Rudy Man Crush!
Imagine how clutch Roy would be
if he had a chainsaw for a hand, though.
"I like blocks," Fernandez said.
No blood no foul, right?
He might get more offensive fouls called on him…

Brings a new meaning
to slashing through traffic. Maybe we can deploy this for the Boston game.

I think they should announce NBA injuries like they do in
the National Football League. Roy is out with a finger, Batum with a knee, and Travis is out with a butt.
Well, I could be wrong, but I believe diversity is an old, old wooden ship that was used during the Civil War era.
Stub that out, Travis.

occassionally when I see a nice butt
I don’t realize until too late that it was actually a guy’s butt! I think they call that “buttocks confusion.”
feels like i'm wearin' nothin' at all nothing at all, nothing at all [whole tone scale]

I got my own injury to report....
I laughed so hard as “Bush dodges Shoe” last night that I pulled muscles in my abdomen…I am recovering nicely but must refrain from watching it again till further notice
I was impressed with bush's reflexes
But that likely comes from dodging justice throughout his presidency
well...you can tell he's had things thrown at hime b4
like shoes…he knew there was a second one coming….
