Texting Blazers scores

in the post-game comment section, prezofdeth said it would be cool to get text messages about blazers games. in case he was actually serious (doubtful), you can actually do this on espn.com through their alert services. go to espn.com and register (free). obviously you'll need to provide your cellphone number to receive texts, but there is no cost for the text updates. once you are registered, go to member services and click on "espn alert manager." you can then find the blazers and register for either final or quarterly updates. you will receive a text that shows the score and the points/rebounds/assists for the leading performer on each team. i highly recommend signing up, it's a lifeline when you're away from the computer and need those blazers scores!

One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life,(of the Blazers), (of KP's madness), of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity." - Albert Einstein

I felt really special this morning

I was one of the first on my block to know that Morten Andersen, NFL kicker, is retiring because of knee problems.

I've had this since preseason

It’s pretty cool, but can be kind of annoying when you are actually watching the game.

heads up

I’ve had this service for a couple years now, for the Blazers and Ducks Basketball. The texts so far this season have all been very late and often wrong. When its wrong, they send you a correction text, this is usually wrong too. All in all, these things ended up wasting a lot of texts and not ever telling me anything I didn’t already know.

i was informed today

that dusty dvoracek of the chicago bears was placed on the IR for a torn right bicep…

that matt jones was suspended for substance abuse….

and some guy from the Penguins is out 2-4 weeks with a shoulder injury.

I just got one last night

After the loss. I almost broke my phone. I had just come to terms with the loss and well hello, there is my phone, reminding me all about it..
