Around SBN: Jerry Sandusky's Wife Tries To Run A Reporter Over

Linkage

How about this snazzy new site, eh?  Switching layouts is like buying a new leather recliner-- it's all about the acclimation process. I’m starting to get pretty-pretty-pretty comfortable. 

 

Before we get to the links, a quick follow-on Tuesday’s Memphis game.  Did you know:

-- Rudy Gay’s Mom is named Rae Gay.

-- Darko’s mom is named Zora.

-- Brian Cardinal’s nickname was “the custodian” as a rookie.

 

All true facts courtesy of the Memphis Grizzlies Media Guide. 

 

What a win it was Tuesday night and, in case you missed it, check out the quality content that the last home game of the year inspired:

 

-- Ryan White describes Jarrett Jack’s ridiculous outfit in the locker room postgame.

-- Sean at the Blazers Blog has video of Travis's twin tyrannosaurus dunks.

--  Read Nate’s postgame comments (transcription by Joe Freeman) or watch the video (taken by Mr. Steady Elbows himself, Casey Holdahl).

 

As for last night’s game, I hope you enjoyed the live blog experience with Bright Side of the Sun If you participated, please drop any feedback you had in the comments so we can pass it along to our hosts for future use.  Much appreciated.

 

Now, read the rest of these links while you’re still trying to figure out what… in … the… heck… is going on with Dave’s profile. 

 

-- The Portland Tribune’s Kerry Eggers on Brandon’s pouty commentsWater under the bridge?

-- The Portland Mercury’s Ezra Caraeff opines on the end of Darius Miles. 

-- Ezra also took some shots at Blaze the Trail Cat recently.

-- The Oregonian's Ryan White with an awesome D Miles quote.

-- HoopsWorld's Wendell Maxey with a report on Channing Frye's Future.

 

And, as a prelude to the Blazer’s Edge Season in Review, here’s a few:

 

-- Oregonian’s Season in Review.

-- HoopsWorld’s Season in Review.

-- The beginning of the You Be The GM series over at the Blazers Blog.  The first victim: Sergio Rodriguez.

 

Be on the lookout for Blazers Edge contributions to the You Be The GM series in the near future.

Why is this in a different font than every other post?

Maybe one or the other would be easier on my gentle sensibilities.

Yeahhhh

How about you keep to Arial? It seems you are pasting from Word, no? Thus, the default font is Times New Roman. Switch it to Arial before making the post.

Just some friendly advice :)

Times New Roman should be banned forever.

I far prefer Garamond for a serif font.

"A certain critic—for such men, I regret to say, do exist—made the nasty remark about my last novel that it contained ‘all the old Wodehouse characters under different names’. He has probably now been eaten by bears, like the children who made mock of the prophet Elisha: but if he still survives he will not be able to make a similar charge against Summer Lightning. With my superior intelligence, I have outgeneralled this man by putting in all the old Wodehouse characters under the same names. Pretty silly it will make him feel, I rather fancy." - P.G.

Best comment on the You Be the GM

“I’d rather watch Sergio make mistakes out on the floor than Jack” by metromen. That tickles me.

Ask not what Blazers Edge can do for you; ask what you can do for Blazers Edge.

That Darius Quote

was so fuuny, I had to sig that.

"The next day in practice, if you sweat, it's going to come out of your pores, regardless. If you ask any coach around the league how many times they have smelled liquor on a player . . . As long as that player is showing up on time, doing the drills and running, that's part of it. But there have been times, yeah. Yeah, you probably smelled liquor on me. But it's not like I'm at practice drunk. I'm totally focused."

Blazers Broadcasters Mike Barrett and Mike Rice re-enacted NBA referee Scott Foster's controversial goaltending call on Portland Trail Blazers forward LaMarcus Aldridge, who was defending Oklahoma City Thunder All-Star forward Kevin Durant, during this week's edition of Blazers Courtside. Remarkably, no one was injured during the taping of this segment.

OK, that should just about wrap up the goaltending discussion.
