[OT] Mortimer: Draft Report

PrintIntroduction
When I started perusing the BEdge library, the first commenter to which I was accustomed was someone by the screen name 'Mortimer'. I found his (and I assume Mortimer is a male) responses manifold and his reputation long-held. He was, clearly, a stand-out amongst the crowd. A "BEdge celebrity". A sheep in lone-wolf clothing.
I believe the first encounter went something like this:
"blah blah blah forever and six million paragraphs"
M0rt1mer?!
Mortimer"
And the responding comment was something to the following effect:
"I hate how long Mortimer's posts are and how he's usually right but I can't tell because I never bother to read them".
Thesis
No thesis here, really, I just thought that would be a great header. Mostly, I think Mortimer is a man of mystery who writes really super gigantic, yet relevant, comments and never seems to make a fanpost. Always a bridesmaid, never a bride, apparently.
Well, my expendable hours and my blood alcohol level have each reached their 'tipping point' (a term businessmen are so fond of using these days), and I think the best use of my 4:30am on this Sunday (is that what it is now?) is to start a thread to assess this shadow-figure, this night-ranger, as though he were a Russell Westbrook, a Brandon Rush, or any such figures we have scrutinized in the past days in pre-draft hysteria.
Perhaps it's a bit presumptuous, my being a relatively new BEdger and all, but I don't see anyone else doing it. So, with a fridge full of PBR and Firefox's spellchecker by my side, I present to you:
Mortimer
Overall
As slippery as an eel and intractable as an ox. A long-winded Wordsworth of the WordPad, this commenter. Most likely lives in Portland, though he belongs to no less than nine other SBN forums alone. Would excel in situations where word count, eloquence and Blazersology are considered utile. Ability to adhere to a daylight schedule are suspect at best.
Strengths
Can produce in-depth comments on topics ranging from Raef's expiring contact to "your mom". Tenacious in points regarding contracts, rosters of obsolete teams and general basketball obscura, almost to a fault. Will provide more than his share in commentary, keywords and discussion on any topic.
Weaknesses
Is given to over-evaluating own perspective. Will resort to LOLspeak when placed in a pressure situation. In responses, often plays to the level of his competitors. Lacking in a killer's instinct (will begin a thread with an outspoken point and abandon it before its resolution). Seems to enjoy controversy within the ranks.
Summary
A prospect any team would take on as an addition [ed. note: I accidentally typed 'addiction' - ha ha!]. A once-in-a-generation performer around whom you could build a nucleus of a championship-caliber squad. While pomposity may be an issue, egoism will never get in the way of team spirit. A true asset to any team.
p.s. AnntheFan and TominHawaii, you're up next!

As the only sober guy here
Allow me to point out that you replied to Mortimer’s post titled “I’m in LA too.” He lives in LA because he’s actually Kobe.
Funny stuff though.

Thanks for Ruining It (Again)
For the record, I learn a new thing about Mortimer every day (eh…). One such item was, yes, that he is an Angelino (I found this out when I replied to his comment a full hour after creating this fanpost).
Always there to denigrate someone else’s hard work. This is going into your draft profile, no question.

Again?
Are you talking about Landslide? I would have though Smashing Pumpkins would have beat me to it.
Besides living in LA, the only other thing I know about Mortimer is that he’s engaged to an African American Princess. Oh, and he’s almost 18 toilet paper rolls tall.
"lowest common denominator - every time I think you hit rock bottom you sink it deeper into the shale" -- bow4meow
So YOU'RE Mortimer
That explains a lot. Like when “good Mortimer” writes a post and then “bad Mortimer” logs in as TominHawaii and responds in some sleazy, salacious manner that’s way off-topic. And then “good Mortimer” is like ‘NO! Tom! remember what happened last time!’ and then there’s some sort of fight that involves a warehouse and someone falling out of a window and good prevailing over evil or something and good god I feel like Mortimer – how did you do that!? Am I Mortimer now!?
In any case, thanks for tanking my comments to recommendations ratio. For that you shall never be forgiven.

Mortimer is a pretty nifty guy.
I don’t know if you were around, 12skarks, but I (and a few willing participants) had a post honoring good ol’ Morty. It was a lot of fun and Mortimer took it in stride.

Are you Spanish,
male, and between the ages of 15 and 28?? You have to be given that description…the only part you left out was a reference to a mullet/foot-long rat tail/half a bottle of hair gel, but I ‘m assuming that was just an oversight.

Walk in through the door?
Hey, it’s alright. Don’t worry about it Tom.
It was yours!
Since you were caught stealin’, once, when you were 5, we will not hold it against you.
Mortimer
I enjoy stealing. It's just as simple as that.
How are you still up? I took a nap after the game and if it wasn’t for some wasabi peas, I’d fall asleep.
"lowest common denominator - every time I think you hit rock bottom you sink it deeper into the shale" -- bow4meow
Just got done doing my thing
So I’m just relaxin’ a bit. The fiancee has a court appearance early in the morning, I don’t wanna wake her up. She’s a good kid and doesn’t mean any harm, so I’ll let her get her rest.
You adjusting to the graveyard shit yet?
I responded to your link to the flopping article. It was a funny article.
Mortimer
I thought I was adjusted, until today.
My desire to go to sleep right now, could only be compared to Kobe’s desire to be loved.
"lowest common denominator - every time I think you hit rock bottom you sink it deeper into the shale" -- bow4meow
Also
I think once the Finals end, I can get on a somewhat normal schedule. I really should be sleeping while they are on.
"lowest common denominator - every time I think you hit rock bottom you sink it deeper into the shale" -- bow4meow
DVR 'em!
I worked graveyard a few years ago, before I moved down here. It sucked. I never got used to it, just managed to stay up and then sleep in until noon (got home at 6am).
I don’t usually need much sleep though, so it won’t work for everyone. Plus, I was young and silly. I don’t think I could do it now that I am in my late 20’s and about to die.
Mortimer
Yeah
I want to stay current with the kids these days and watch the game in real time. I normally only need about 5 hours of sleep. The problem is that I’m getting it in chunks instead of one lump sum.
"lowest common denominator - every time I think you hit rock bottom you sink it deeper into the shale" -- bow4meow
I prefer real time also
The second half of the Blazers season, I only watched a handfull of games live because I got too busy. I got so used to watching them on DVR, when I did finally get to watch a game live I kept trying to fast forward through the commercials.
One time my DVR ate a recorded game I hadn’t watched yet and I was so angry I hijacked a school bus and ran it into a homeless shelter. Luckily I have NBA League pass, and can watch games online for 48 hours after the game.
It was the Toronto game where Roy did his Jordan move. I hate knowing the score of a game when I watch it, but at least we won.
Mortimer
did you see the triple OT win against Phoenix in the playoffs back when
my vcr ran out of tape with about 3 minutes left … and we won. I feel your pain Mortimer.
If you dont talk to your cats about catnip, who will?

I just realized I mistyped into a swear word.
Was a mistake Dave, I swear. Meant to type SHIFT.

Mortimer
Ha Ha
I LOLed a lot just now.
"lowest common denominator - every time I think you hit rock bottom you sink it deeper into the shale" -- bow4meow
I'll be LOLing all the way to the banned list
Dave’s just looking for a reason to kick me out, I can feel it. He is really Bow4Meow, and Bow4Meow hates my stinking GUTS.
Mortimer
That's funny
Because there is a comment by him, about you, below this comment thread. I didn’t notice the cuss word until you pointed it out.
"lowest common denominator - every time I think you hit rock bottom you sink it deeper into the shale" -- bow4meow
It's my own personal running joke
I always claim he hates me, which he does.
I don’t think anything anyone has said here has ever got under my skin, and I like bow4meow so he’s never made me angry.
He just doesn’t like the cut of my jib and he sends me psychic messages telling me to die.
I just wanna be friends!
Mortimer
Just to clarify
I do not really think Bow4Meow hates me, and I think he likes me and wants me to stay alive.
Mortimer
PS: Just to clarify further, Bow4Meow really does hate me and wishes I’d get chopped up by a boat propeller.
Did you go to that webpage
Maybe he’d throw you into one of those blenders.

What about sex without the commitment?
As it’s only half the loaf, perhaps you could extend your boundary by a factor of 2.
In the interest of maintaining BE's family friendly nature
and to kill this joke that has probably long ago gone way too far, I would like to state uncategorically for the record, that I have no intention of dating, marrying, or any thing else of a romantic nature with anyone here, of any age. The end.
re:Mortimer
I must strike a nerve from time to time with Mortay because it feel a sense of disgust in his replies to my comments… for example the Did Brandon come into last season out of shape topic. I know that got under his skin. Mortimer is a good guy even if he doesnt know as much about the PTB as me.
If you dont talk to your cats about catnip, who will?
A lot of us were disgusted by that post
Mort just had the most rememberable of expressing it.

Here's some insight you might find useful.
Mortimer has been around since the Blazers Thoughts days, like myself, Jorga, TP43, Dr. Dave, and some others. Back then it was a quiet and thoughtful community, not happy with the state of the team but full of hope for the future.
Inevitably, with the move to BE and the explosion of the team’s popularity, it is quite a different experience now. Dr. Dave and Jorga have adapted well. Others hailing from that older period have fallen by the wayside (I’m looking at you, fatty).
Through it all, Mortimer is often the voice of reason when outlandish things are said. He is just as passionate as any other Blazer fan, but thinks more logically than speculatively. If I disagree with a post, Mortimer almost always says what I’m thinking before I can post it, and probably more eloquently at that. Especially on lots of other SBNation boards who make a comment about the Blazers.
Things have changed a lot for us old school posters. If I had to compare Mortimer to a player it would be (the recently much-coveted on this site) Tayshaun Prince: a great defender, still in his prime, and a valuable asset.

Unless of course I threaten not to post,
Then BlogaBull would be forced to rescind their trade. Unless, of course, that was their goal all along.

At first I fell into 'skipping Mort posts due to length' thing.
But either he’s proven too good to skip or he’s become more concise, as I don’t skip over as much.
Neither
I have not improved and I am not more concise. I just write so many posts you can’t avoid me!
You don’t notice yourself blinking or breathing most of the time. Such is a Mortimer post. At first you cringe, then you are aware that you are reading it, now you breeze over it without even noticing you are.

What??
How did I get in here??

I once entertained the idea
that Mortimer was female, simply because I have a tendency to get lengthy in my eagerness to have everyone understand what I am saying, trying to forestall misunderstandings, and answering questions before they are asked. But then I realized that Mortimer was definitely (or doing a really good job of masquerading as a) male and that wordiness is not necessarily a female trait … as S323 and ATF so grandly demonstrate with their ability to get right to the point without adding way too many unnecessary words.
It is an indictment of my writing ability
That I cannot get across simple concepts and opinions without resorting to super long posts. I just don’t know any other way.
If I appeared female at first, it might be because I AM a lady-person. Perchance I am British star of stage and screen, Emily Mortimer?
I had a guest spot on 30 Rock (the hollow boned fiance of Alec Baldwin), and… other stuff. I can’t remember, it’s been so much… stuff.
Oh, I was in Match Point, that decent Woody Allen movie!
See? I know everything about me, Emily Mortimer, so I must be her. Jorga was right, as always!
Mortimer
If I May Say..
1. Thanks for the gentle pat on the nose, veterans. I really thought this was just a bunch of people hanging out and talking about the Blazers. Apparently, it goes much deeper than that (i.e. mention of pre-BEdge ‘good old days’), and I certainly didn’t mean to step on anyone’s toes.
2. I was really hoping Mortimer himself would write a really long comment on this post (it being in his honor and all), but instead he seems to have gone for a high quantity of truncated responses. I suppose I could attribute that more to my presumptuousness than anything else. Not disappointed, just surprised..
Also, this is the first BEdge fanpost I’ve encountered where almost every single comment had nothing to do with the “topic”. Does that mean brick or three-pointer?

Oh, don't think I ain't honored
Because I definitely am. I like that people, most of the time, seem to enjoy reading my comments and I love that you wrote up this scouting report. I’ve been trying to snag a few moments to write a comment that expresses this (and maybe I have the chance right now?), but I hadn’t yet—so, the short lil’ comments.
Not that writing a long post takes me much time: I type really fast with only two fingers and read quickly as well. So, it doesn’t take me as long as maybe someone else would to write 500+ words of nonsense. That isn’t to say I don’t spend more time here than I should, but hell, it’s the Blazers. What can I do.
I like joining the different fan sites now that it is so easy to do. Just click and there ya go! Member. Plus, I also enjoy being a sort of ambassador of Blazer fanhood, correcting minor mistakes or explaining what Blazer fans and management (in the case of management, educated guesses) are thinking about certain players or trades. Such as, most Portland trade scenarios on other sites feature Pryzbilla, Rudy, Outlaw, and the #13. I explain why Pryzbilla is our only back up center, the work to bring Rudy over (and the hope with how good he is), say why and why not Outlaw could or could not be traded, and feed the notion that the #13 is up for grabs. I know many of us gotta say these exact things to even us here at the Blazers Edge, so I can’t expect outsiders to automatically know why they are or aren’t tradeable, of course.
And, the LMA debates on Blog-a-Bull. It isn’t worth it. I like a lot of Blog-a-Bull people and always enjoy reading their articles by Matt (and others), but some posters are just so snippy and useless. When we encounter new people here on Blazers Edge, I think us regulars should remember they are new and don’t know their idea has already been discussed or is outright a bad idea. The friendly, intelligent atmosphere is my favorite thing about Blazers Edge (that and it discusses the Trail Blazers, a professional basketball team that hails from Portland, Oregon), and I’d hate for that to change. It’d be annoying if this place had a ‘regulars vs non-regulars’ vibe, so I’d do my best to fight that.
Not that I won’t continue to annoy people on Blog-a-Bull, because like Blazers Edge it is an active, vocal fanbase. If I didn’t randomly write 1000 word posts on our draft history since 2005, who will? When I saw that I was discussed amongst BaB regulars in a thread that didn’t really have anything to do with the Blazers, I knew I had arrived as a complete loser who should get a life.
Yeah, unfortunately, I live in LA, but I t’were raised in Portland. I hope I’m not an Angelino, and I still got Oregon plates and drivers license. I’m holding on. Me and the lovely fiancee will move back up to Portland someday to do that family thing that was in vogue in olde tymey pioneer days, and then the kids can learn to say “I like Martell Webster” in a bare minimum of 1500 words on Blazers Edge.
For now, I gotta stay in LA to do LA stuff. It isn’t as bad as some seem to think, as there are a lot of great neighborhoods and a lot to do here. Only problem is, there are a crap load of people. And the more people you get, the higher the odds of there being a lot of dumb people. It’s not necessarily an LA thing; everywhere ya go there are dumb annoying people. There’s just so many people here, and dumb annoying people stand out, so they take over what you think of when you think of a place. Some people here are good enough to be a Portlander… SOME people.
It feels like a majority of the LA natives have never really been outside LA, and don’t realize the world north of San Francisco. If you don’t gotta be here for whatever reason (work, family, etc), I don’t really get why they live here. There’s loads nicer places in the world. So, LA is both overrated and not as bad as all that. It’s just ehhhh.
If I was in the draft this year, I’d tell every team that I’m only gonna play for a Portland-area team, and do my best to fall to the Blazers, which are a Portland area team. It’d be a perfect situation for me, as every other team is worse than Hitler.
Thanks for writing this up 12Sharks, I really enjoyed it. It both fed my massive ego, and warmed my dark empty heart. I like the work ya do ‘round these parts, and I hope I prove worth a #13 draft selection.

WELL!!
If it isn’t the honoree himself! This all actually started with a late-nite PBR-fueled BEdge binge where I noticed you and I were basically the only two people commenting. I was thought it a good time to ask the “So, what’s the deal with Mortimer, Mortimer?” type question, but also thought it deserved its own thread. Muddle a few “creative” ideas and shake with drunken ingenuity and here we are.
To wax sentimental, I’ve had a great time getting to know the community here. I’ve never felt an “old-skool vs. new” discrepancy, until this post. Even now, I don’t take it so much as elitism as a “this is more important than you know, knucklehead” type sentiment, and I really respect that. I find the combination of diversity and authority makes for some very thought-provoking posts, and you have in spades both qualities. I feel like the bear in Crystal Castles, running around picking up gem after gem, narrowly escaping Steven A. Smith-type witches, etc. I long sought an outlet for my BEdge cravings without knowing where to go. Finally, a home has been found.
On the Los Angeles tip, I.. ahem.. used to live there, and I was happiest in the Echo Park area. I spent a lot of time moving around looking for the ‘real’ LA (Korea Town, Glendale, Venice Beach), and it wasn’t until I lived in that location that I felt I’d found it. A real sense of community there. It may be totally hipsterfied by now, but the Brite Spot, Sea Level records and the Pioneer supermarket (now, sadly, a Walgreens, I believe) were as soul-satisfying as I could find. I hear you on the ‘too many people’ thing. Fortunately, it has its positives: You never have to run into someone you don’t like – you don’t even run into people you like! Also, the few people who are “hang-outable” are total diamonds-in-the-rough and very much make the whole experience worthwhile. Still, come back to Portland before you lose all sense!
I still think it’s hilarious and fitting that I accidentally called you a great Blazer’s Edge “addiction” instead of “addition”. Your efforts are well-regarded by myself as well as, obviously, many others.

Morty's right.
It’s all about the sincerity. If you have to live in L.@., you might as well
tell everyone how OVERRATED Low-Cal is and has been. More importantly,
you can continue to raise the RED & BLACK, even if it leads to your death.
If you want to live in the opposite of Low-Cal, then move to So. Oregon and
decide that breathing is healthy, as well as important. The only problem is
COINCAST and it’s ridiculous monopoly killing Blazermaniacs.
P.S. – I’m afraid you would probably be a 3rd rounder and have to grind it
out in the D-League with McBob.
DOWN WITH COINCAST !!!! BRING BACK OUR BLAZERS !!!P.P.S. – Dear Blazer Management – Get us a local radio affiliate or I’m coming
for each and everyone of you !
It's GO time !
Well (again)..
1. As the quote I love goes, “LA has the existential reverb of cardboard”.
2. Mortimer’s a franchise player, no doubt. He’s the Rose of this draft. If he were already in the NBA, he’d definitely be the Dwayne Wade for which the Bulls are considering trading the pick.
C. No probs on the Comcast criticism – dang, yo, indeed.
