the offseason lull on blazersedge

how bout them lakers...making me pull for each opponent to beat their...what's going on with all these off topic posts...why do i prefer the old format on this site better.  why aren't people writing geat diaries anymore...

It,s because we're good, what's there to complain about except jack and sergio?  nothing else really.  how many months until next season starts? 6 and a half.  ok people, your posts that are non basketball related belong somewhere else,  where i don't care start a new site.  this site is for fans of the blazers, not tominhawaii's ramblings about life. nor does anyone care about martell's grandma's white hat Are you kidding me....ok i'll calm it a bit, but really does anyone here have the credentials to honestly tell whether rudyF will be successful in the NBA?  we can hope as i do and watch dkv highlights but cmon people, lets not jump to any conclusions.  at least after the lottery we can talk draft and read scouting reports but until then we got the playoffs.  You all should be scouting the remaining teams as they are our competition.  Utah's letting me down tremendously,,,too many jump shots.  We're gonna need our point guard to be able to guard.

-tony parker, chris paul, deron  williams, and derric rose

we're gonna need someone( forward/guard it doesn't matter which) who can guard

-Lebron James

who else should we consider that will be a threat over the next ten years?

and finally,,,personally i pul for sergio but jack seems more logical as he can guard cp3 and dwill quite well actually but no point guard will truly become great until nate hands over the reigns,,,not meaning that he leaves rather he justs let them play, ala phil jackson, kobe michael, Pat Riley, magic, wade, Chuck Daly, isiah, dumars
. Greg Popovich, parker ginobili and duncan. Ya'll get where i am going.  I think it can happen .  Firs't someones needs to step up next to Brandon and take the ball to the hole.

Basketball? I thought this site was about sport coats!

But onto your “basketball” related questions and comments.

but really does anyone here have the credentials to honestly tell whether rudyF will be successful in the NBA?

Not even the magical KP knows that for sure, but in my expert opinion: Without a doubt. Want a second opinion? Read myemic23’s signature. Just because we have none of these “credential” things doesn’t mean that we cant voice our opinion, no matter how off the wall it is. Otherwise, I would have nothing to say, and neither would anyone else.

We’re gonna need our point guard to be able to guard.

-tony parker, chris paul, deron williams, and derric rose

I don’t think anyone can guard those guys. Except Gary Payton in his prime, but would he fit our culture if we had a time machine? But I am also confused on your list. Why would Derrick Rose need to guard himself? Wouldn’t that be counter productive?

we’re gonna need someone( forward/guard it doesn’t matter which) who can guard

-Lebron James

If Bruce Bowen can’t guard him, who would you suggest? I mean, James even avoids the foot-in-the-landing-spot trick.

no point guard will truly become great until nate hands over the reigns,,,not meaning that he leaves rather he justs let them play

Based on what, exactly? It’s not like we’ve had a good point guard who would have become great so far. Blake and Jack are decent, and Sergio is more mercurial than Jack (brief periods of awesomeness followed by much messiness). But the point guard situation will change, as you will see in about 12 more days.

Whoa grumpy gus

Part of the reason I come here is because the community makes me laugh, not just to endlessly dissect if Jack will ever figure out to quit stepping out of bounds with the ball (no) or if we need to trade Raef, McBob, and two second-rounders for LeBron (hate to give up that cap space, but a reluctant yes). If you don’t like reading the OT diaries…well, heck, it says so right there in the title. Just don’t read ‘em.

The problem is not in having Derrick Rose.

But with three ROY candidates in Rose, Rudy and Oden, who do you choose? It certainly wont be unanimous. Swirsky’s vote for Chase Budinger wont even get noticed.

Hmmmmm.....

The idia of adding basketball, or more to the point of following the playoffs with the BE comunity is….GREAT!!
The way in witch this message was transmitted…...hmmm….
“why aren’t people writing geat diaries anymore…” If i believe that something is missing, i might become frustrated with the others that I blame, (becoming hostal{i kant spel}) I might decide to give up and leave becouse I am not getting what I want, further contributing to the lack there of. Or, I might bring what I find missing, saticefying others with the same needs(I know they are out there), and simply be the leader I am looking for.
I am in sales, and the product I sell changes lives, but I am treated with much sceptism, to be VERY kind. It is not the person who you are selling the (in this case) idia to respnsibility, to be available and prepared to recieve it, the responsibility lies instead with the presenter. If the idiea is important, then you have the responsibility to think ahead, to create a situation in witch the idia will be most likely to be accepted.
I have found it dificult to shame others into followinging my will, when for them theres seams quite just. esample…”i don’t care start a new site. this site is for fans of the blazers, not tominhawaii’s ramblings about life. nor does anyone care about martell’s grandma’s white hat Are you kidding me”
These people are enjoyed by this comunity, my self included. I mean I enjoy them 2. Any post with the (OT) heading will be Off Topic.
“does anyone here have the credentials to honestly tell whether…...” then, “no point guard will truly become great until nate hands over the reigns,,,” this assertive claim leeds me to think that you have the qualifications, or at least that you think you do.
Me, I really want the Spurs to just stop cris paul, please no ring for him in new orleans. I heard that there owner has publicly declared that he would never give a max contract. does any know anything about this, links?

In the NBA, on the other hand, the vast majority of NBA championships are won by teams led by a player who would be considered the best player in the league at the time, or among the top three players in the league at the time.

Okay... there was a good point that was brought up guys

That is… why aren’t we scouting the enemies? Analyze the boys in the play-offs. What are their strengths and weaknesses and how can the blazers take them off and counter them…

Oh crud… that’s too advanced for me.

Where’s this Tom blog you speak of? I think I musts go and hangs over there for a bit. I hope they have bBQ!

If this upsets you, feel free to let your hair down and come on over to Tom’s. I hear he’s having a BBQ to celebrate Jscot’s release from jail. I heard this because it’s what I just told myself, so better hit him up while the rumor is fresh!

Watching the team highlights it is easy to see how Rudy will love playing with Roy Oden and Aldridge. The Blazers are going to be one nasty team (but this time in a good way).

I like OT subjects

like if Mel Gibson where a basket ball player what team would he play for?

"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."

I don't Ramble

There would be a lot less off topic converstaions if the Blazers made the playoffs. Maybe you should write an angry letter to Nate or KP for failing to make the playoffs, and making Blazers Edge boring for you.

How many more discussions about our small forwards and point guards, would you like to read each day? Maybe we should go after a small forward from Atlanta, or a point guard from New Jersey or Toronto.

Where do I sign up for Blazers Edge credentials?

Midget

Its already been said throughout the season and afterwards, saying things like: We need a steve nash style point guard except with lock-down defense or: we need a defender who can shut down LBJ, are being more than ridiculous. You may not like the OT diaries, but at the same time, what you are asking for is OT masquerading as basketball discussion. We are not now nor ever going to have either of those players: someone who can shut down LBJ nor a guard who is equally as good as Ime on the defense and Nash on the offense. Atleast Tom has the sense to put OT by his diaries, maybe you should write FL (Fantasy Land) by yours.

I don’t mind being shown I’m wrong on this site, because I learn. Knowledge is good and yummy and delicious and while not as tasty as ice cream, it has less calories.

Also, I love hearing people say those wonderful fabulous words… “you were right”

that Kirk is an idiot. Some of us didn’t even need the riddle.

Fanpost: “Who will the Blazers trade?”

Actually, it was intended more as a statement.

Certainly one that lacked validation on your part, which I acknowledged, but a statement nonetheless. Perhaps the “are you” should have been a different rhetorical device.

No, I am not a woman, just a man who is happily married, and plans to stay that way by keeping his mouth shut. I don’t plan to find out if my wife is as forgiving as 92wastheyear’s wife. Despite that, I know she must be. She puts up with me of all people, and forgives me more than I deserve.

The Hawaii weather forecast.

Just the same thing every day, on a loop:

“Highs in the mid-80’s, lows in the lower 70’s. Windward and Mauka showers.
Trade winds out of the northeast at 5-15 miles an hour.”

At least when I was living there, we had hurricanes every ten years to spice things up.

Walked around the Italian neighborhood. Ball fields and outdoor courts were full o’ playahs. Philly was happin’ the weather was good. Cyclers abound. I wanted to get out in it. It looked like a lotta fun to be had there. My itinerary was set to a different objective.

You are ringing my bell.

You Know all village in Spain, even the smallest, have a catholic church, usually a very ancient one, with its tower and its bells. Very useful to convoque people at a time when there were not other way to distance comunication.
This stuff remember me a joke I can´t translate directly but i will try to explain.
In Spanish when someone says I hit the bell or ring the bell somewhere ( dar la campanada) can mean “I am the sensation somewhere”. Keeping in mind that idea, try to understand this one:
A young explosive girl with a very short dress asks to the priest: Father, do you think I will ring the bell at this night party?. I don´t know at the party but I would ring the bell now if the cassok would be made in bronze.

OKay, i'm confused...

Q: What is the definition of dwarfism?

A: Little People of America (LPA) defines dwarfism as a medical or genetic condition that usually results in an adult height of 4’10” or shorter, among both men and women, although in some cases a person with a dwarfing condition may be slightly taller than that.

The average height of an adult with dwarfism is 4’0, but typical heights range from 2’8 to 4’8.

Number one… why does em make italics instead of i? That’s just weird. Secondly… if the definition of dwarfism is 4’10” or shorter… how does the height range from 2’8” to 4’8”... and thirdly… does that mean the really hot cheerleader I used to go to Glencoe with who was thrown 30’ in the air and did all those flips and was 4’10” was a dwarf and are run on sentences a problem for anyone?

There are serious questions that need addressing!

Ran varsity for Jesuit, class of 2005. I heard that your home course was freaking awesome for PRing my sophomore and your junior year…but I didn’t run sophomore year, you guys raced at Jesuit my junior year cuz we were at Glencoe the year before, and senior year the course was all changed and like 45-50 seconds slower. Bummer. Metro League cross-country…good times. (Well, actually bad times. Give me a track and a defined distance any day).

Yeah...

Anyone who told you our course was made for PRing lied to you. It was a few years before I got to Glencoe, but that’s because it was too short. 3 miles straight up instead of 5K.

So, former head coach Jim Smith decided we wouldn’t have a PR course anymore and redrew the map just before my freshman year. Two sets of stairs, as well as ups and downs in mud and barkdust.

The PR courses in Metro were always Sunset and THPRD.

I remember the second flight of stairs…coming up out of the sawdust mud pits and heading back into the woods before you loop back around onto the track to finish? Kill me.

I Feel Ya

The problem with this fanpost is that you included at least six different topics, and the one that stuck in most people’s minds was the off topic portion. Once the comments go off on their own tangent, it is pretty hard to recover.

It took me a while to figure out fansposts. Two things that are very important to remember regarding fanposts, is that you should only have one subject, and never assume that readers will follow your link. I have made both those mistakes multiple times. You can see in Ben’s post that people discussed “You be the GM” and not the fine write up about McMillan written by Ben. Links to videos are especially precarious. People will discuss them without ever watching them.

I was going to write a fanpost with helpful hints for writing fanposts, but you taught me a valuable lesson and I won’t clutter the Bedge with something so trite.

I’ll leave your fanpost alone. Off-Topicers Mount-Up!

Hmmm...

I am thinking we need to improve at PG the most but also possibly at SF. We could trade our number one pick and Travis Outlaw for a better PG and be looking good. Derrick Rose is too high up in the draft for us unless the team that gets the two pick needs a couple prospects and TO and already has a PG.

Uhhh…I like our chances at the playoffs even if we don’t make any major trades…

It will be good to see GO play next year…

I hope Rudy comes over…

I read he was upset too

They tried to use him for the song but his voice just wasn’t what the Coen’s wanted. Tim Blake Nelson, the actor, did sing the version of “In the Jailhouse Now” that shows up in the movie and the soundtrack.

I saw the movie the weekend it opened and walked out telling my wife that “Man of Constant Sorrow” was going to win a grammy. I was just bugging her because I was riding the Alt Country wave (still do) and believing the industry hype that it was the next big thing… and then it won a grammy and the movement never went any further than that…

I could tell my favorite joke

These two guys meet at a party and one of them has a big orange head.

One says, “You have tell me how you got that head, what happened?”

So the other guy says, “Well, I was walking along the beach one day and I found a bottle. So, I rubbed the bottle and a genie popped out and gave me three wishes.”

“First, I wished for a million dollars, which is how I became rich obviously… then I wished for a beautiful wife to enjoy it with… and you can see that worked out,” he said as he pointed to his wife.

“And for the third wish…and this is where I think I went wrong…I asked for a big orange head.”

The Aristocrats

That joke was in the DVD extras for the movie “The Aristocrats.” I laughed more for that joke than the entire movie but that is saying something because I laughed loudly at that movie. If you ever want to hear comedians riffing on the most disgusting things they can possibly work into a joke…that is your movie.

Insurrects in the International Law of Armed Conflicts (Human Rights)

Internationalized Internal Armed Conflict
A no international armed conflict could be internationalized in the following hypothesis:
a) The state victim of an insurrection recognize the insurrects as belligerents;
b) One or many foreign states intervene with their own armed forces in behalf of one of the parts;
c) Two foreigner states intervene with their respective armed forces, each one in behalf of one of the parts. The resulting problems of these situations could not find an easy answer, due the many juridical implications and the absence of specific international dispositions for this kind of conflict.

Bad idea

That sent me all the way up to the top.

"Could we make a deal right now to make us a 50-win team? No question," Pritchard said. "Will that get us a championship? That’s what we always have to evaluate."

As the great Vonnegut said, more or less... "You are what you pretend to be, so you must be very careful what you pretend to be."

Yes. Yes I do.

We may have to dig for it in the boneyard after it gets bumped out of the “Fav Five” but it’s doable.

Yes

I try to comment here at least once every time I log on. If we all commit to keeping this alive, it can be done. If Hillary can keep going, what’s stopping us? We can take this fanpost all the way to the White House!!!!

Ya don't type drunk, drunk

Trust me on this.

seckshun is slurred speach, not typing.

If the thought is to imply drunkin’ slurriness, You are in a state of stimulated expression.

This is a very fine line to walk. Requiring an artistic touch or ya may fall!
