Here's the fanpost in which to put all of your musings, on- or off-topic, that don't quite merit a separate post of their own. Please note that even though this thread is, by definition, looser than the norm all site conversation rules apply here. That includes no profanity and not spazzing out too much over religion or politics.
Gotta throw in some words to reach the 75-word limit:
Toucan, nanometer, hypnotic, oragami, seminal, hydrostatic, filibuster, punctual, atypical, pussilanimous, Arthurian, pluralism, gangrene, awkward, chopsticks, shampoo

pussilanimous means cowardly
As in, “The illegal war on Iraq was instigated by a pusillanimous little twit.”
On a different note, I read Swami Beyondananda’s Independence Day Message tonight. I found it very inspiring. You can find it here:
http://www.wakeuplaughing.com/news.html
One passage in particular struck me as brilliant. “As interdependent independent beings, we declare a transparent conspiracy to end the apparent trance that has given us the neocon nightmare we have today. That’s right, a conspiracy to end cons’ piracy. To conspire means to "breathe together," so anyone who breathes can join our conspiracy to create a world where everyone can breathe easier.”

Raef LaFrentz
I got to thinking today, about what it must be like to be Raef LaFrentz as a member of the Portland Trailblazers. On the one hand, it is hard to find too much sympathy for a guy who is making practically $13 Million a year for being a practice player…at the same time though, nobody wants him. How would you feel or handle it if nobody wanted you? Imagine yourself sitting on the Blazer’s bench, and knowing that the fans of this team can’t wait until you are no longer there. Imagine knowing the future this team has in store for itself, and knowing that not only are you not a part of it, but that your are an obstacle to it (except the RLEC part). The truth of the matter is, 99.9% of Blazer fans that truly follow the team and know anything about salary caps….they all wish he would go away.
The first year he was here, people were discussing what Raef could bring…a post player who could hit the outside shot and spread the floor. Though that is true to an extent, it is laughable, because it was basically a way to candy-coat the fact that we had to take on one of the worst contracts in the league in the Brandon Roy deal. Regardless of that, there was the smallest bit of intrigue of how he might be able to contribute. He has turned out to be “The guy we throw in there when all our other post players are on the verge of fouling out.”
That was then. Here in the now, nobody wants him. He is even lower on the depth chart because we have Oden and will have Ike Diogu.
It is sad and funny at the same time. Raef fits that rare description of a player that absolutely nobody wants, but yet you’ll never hear him get booed. Nobody likes you Raef! Yet because you’re a Blazer, we love you. Here’s to getting the Veteran’s Minimum in 09-10!

I wouldn't be too surprised to see him get some playing time
I was pretty shocked that “Theo Ratliff’s expiring contract” actually did get quite some minutes in the playoffs, actually contributing something to a team this year that exceeded his value as just an EC for a team (though that was for a different club). I could imagine Raef experiencing the same. He even might play another season or two, though probably not for the Blazers.
Coach, I promise I wasn't running hard ...

I doubt he feels too sad
He’s still in the 99.999% percentile of basketball players in the world, and he probably knows it. He usually looks like he’s having a good time on the bench, too.

By the way
If we don’t end up trading his contract prior to the trading deadline, and we decide to let his salary come off of the books at the end of next season, does anybody here think we should just buy out the rest of his contract and open up a roster spot mid-season to add a player that might be more useful? That would make sense to me anyways.

wont really know till mid season
but can we trade a contract that has been bought ou? doesnt that meke him eligable for any roster at that piont, like fransis? there are those that would argue that buying out raifs contract would be shooting ourselves in the foot. and since we are over the cap, would we even be able to take on a player that we dont trade for. I think your right tingeyga, I dont think that would work at all.

No...ya don't want to do that
See..his salary is good for trading during this upcoming season (before it expires) and if we cut him now…we wouldn’t be able to make that trade deadline move involving his contract (I don’t believe you can trade a bought out player). That would cause us to lose some of our flexiblity.

I've been misunderstood
The trade deadline is every February. If come February we don’t trade him (i.e. the deadline comes and goes), then he is just taking up roster space. Since he isn’t going to be resigned by us following the season, I was proposing the rest of his contract be bought out. I wasn’t suggesting buying him out prior to the deadline. Sorry if I wasn’t clear. That’s why I mentioned mid-season.

Ah...good then that makes sense
But couldn’t we just keep him there on the roster and if someone good comes our way we can then waive him and have the same effect? Is this allowed? I really don’t know

An advantage to having superstars...
...is the improvement of complementary players. Think Joel, Channing, and Rudy won’t get better by being matched up every day in practice against Greg, LMA, and Brandon? When they face an opposing team’s bench it’s going to seem like child’s play compared to what they’re used to.

No way not even close.
Having one’s name tatted anywhere on one’s body is not, in my opinion, selfish or self centered. He is, perhaps proud of his surname, maybe reminding himself of where he came from. Or, he, as a 19 year old , wanted a tatoo and figured this would be a great idea. Not too flashy, easy to cover up when needed and not crude or trashy. I don;t know why we are arguing about this anyway, EVERYONE in the NBA has tattoos…sheesh! ( well except for BRoy but he’s clearly the exception)

He misspelled misspell. For ironic purposes, I’m guessing. In my opinion spelling doesn’t show a lack of intelligence/education or anything. If someone uses the words correctly but doesn’t spell them correctly it shouldn’t matter. Of course that’s just my opinion.

I heard (read) you joking around about your spelling in another thread. You seemed to be taking a light-hearted stance on it so I thought it would be okay to joke around with you it.

Yup, they're intense or confident
What about Przybilla’s AND 1 tattoo? That’s worse than getting your name on your back.
I think things are going much too good for us lately, and some fans have to find something to worry about. They’ve been sullied by the bad years.
The good things we got going on are actually good, and we should all enjoy it and not nitpick to find a kink in the armour! If Bayless was some crazy egomaniac and no one knew this ever, would he have been able to hide it? He’s still just some 19 year old rook coming onto Brandon Roy’s team, and Roy doesn’t have a problem putting someone in their place. If he could do it to Z-Bo, he can do it to lil’ Bayless.
The worriers are worried over vague rumors and snap judgements. Worst case scenario, Bayless is talented but annoying and put into his place by Nate and Roy and Przybilla. It would also be the first time in Bayless’ short career where he was a selfish pain in the butt, so I don’t know why some expect it to start now…
I also don’t wanna see anymore ‘it’s like Telfair’ scenarios, when there is zero point zero zero zero things in common between the two. One is a upper-middle class suburban kid, one is related to Starbury and from a dangerous part of NY. One is under 6 foot, one is 6’3” in shoes with Jarrett Jack size. One can dunk, one can’t. One can shoot, one can’t. One did all of his damage against other tiny high school kids, one dominated some nights in the NCAA’s best conference. How are they at all similar?

I wanted you tried the translation because sometimes
the internet translators make some funny translations and/or mistakes. But here I go.
I asked Jose to send a message to me which I might post in BE, or even to post himself in BE, talking about how much he likes Portland and the Blazers or perhaps only our little Blazersedge community. To tempt him I told that it might reach the Raptors and it could get on their nerves, so they would give him the money he deserves. But Jose is not that kind of guy and he didn´t try anything, even this little thing. He accept their offer immediately and signed. And this is his message translated:
"Well, Alfredo, I think there was no need to make the Raptors nervous, I suppose you already know I´ll stay in Toronto, Portland will have to wait.

Or I could just play with the extra words Dave put up.
A toucan who stood 5.0×10^8 nanometers tall walked into a bar with his hypnotic oragami, which was his seminal work. Unfortunately, the patrons were conversing about the hydrostatic pressure exerted on submarines. Conversing may not be the right word, because there was one patron in particular who was holding a filibuster on the subject, much to the chagrin of the other patrons. Since the submariner was a punctual chap, he had arrived precisely at opening, and planned his atypical speech to last until closing that night.
This greatly upset the toucan, and he intended to make a stand for the poor, defenseless patrons. Wielding his hypnotic origami, the toucan challenged the submariner to a duel. However, the pusillanimous submariner fled in the face of the Arthurian bird. The patrons were overjoyed and resumed the previous day’s conversation on cultural pluralism. More specifically, the question was whether persons who had contracted gangrene were discriminated against by other members of society. The toucan, noticing how awkward the new conversation was, left, taking a pair chopsticks from the counter, and purchasing shampoo at the local convenience store before heading home to read some Tolstoy.

Now, I'm sorry, Sharkman.
Sometimes I let my sense of humor get too carried away. But the whole shark analogy was too good to pass up. Nothing personal, I swear. You just had the misfortune of being the one to argue against my irrefutable logic. Now, I feel like we’re even and can be friends, united in righteous Blazer comradery. My hand is extended. Shake it.
You’re right, the “biting their own tails” remark was a low blow. My apologies. Technically, though, sharks don’t have tails, but writing “caudal fins” wouldn’t have had the same effect.
I hope you and everyone here had a great Fourth. Cheers.

Do you guys think that
not being able to have good fireworks here in Oregon encourages people to make their own? I won’t put any recipes up here (being a family site and such) but it’s really not that difficult, yet is pretty dangerous. Most people just go up to Washington and buy them anyway.
I guess my question is do you agree with Oregon’s strict fireworks laws?

Yeah, I understand the increased fire danger here,
it just seems to me like they could maybe just ban them from state parks, and areas like that, instead of a complete ban. Although I guess it’s just easier to have a total ban.
I've heard a couple horror stories about some ridiculous fines being handed down to "fireworks smugglers" who are just normal family people trying to have a good time. I can't remember the exact amount of the fines but, I remember thinking it was more than a month's pay.

Good thing
I have the tiniest nuts that modern medicine has ever seen. You can try to kick them for days while I just yawn and giggle like you’re tickling me.
Tom was in the military, and even though ol’ Mortimer is young, strong, virile, strapping, and has fists like battering rams, I give him the edge because of this. He’d demolish me.
In real life, the last fight I was in was in Pamplona, Spain a few years ago, as I had a job there doing some stuff during the San Fermin festival (the Running of the Bulls). I punched this little guy (for good reasons), and thought I was going to die immediately afterwards because I was in the middle of a big crowd of non-Mortimers (it was a outdoor big rap concert for some group named.. I forget). Everyone just laughed at the lil’ guy though, and I was able to go about my night.
What if this guy was Amlmart1? I feel guilty about it now, because it coulda’ been him, and once he learns of it he’ll stop loving the Blazers and Blazers Edge :-( Tom has probably been all over the world in our Queen’s royal navy, and punched out many a potential Blazer fan.

Meet me tomorrow at 5 am. I’ll have you split and stack a cord of old growth fir since we obviously have to start from ground up here. Within a week I’ll have you shell TiH like a Destroyer takes out his Frigate. The analogy is navy because clearly TiH was a Navy Seal… latter emphasized.

I remember in a podcast where Casey said KP wanted to draft a European player who wasn’t really a European player instead of the French kid. Was that player Kosta Koufos?

It’s is so sad to see former athletes gone to fat. Just goes to show they never knew nothing about proper nutrition.
Hot dog eating contests are gross. Self-debasement is sad to watch. Certain aspects of American society are truly pathetic. We seem to require regular self-debasement tomaintain our self image. Sad. Really freaking sad.

Blog a Bull
Where hope is outlawed and instead of beautiful skyscrapers built of dreams, all they have are square grey cinder block buildings built of grouchiness that take up an entire block and have no windows to the outside world. Cold, oppressive.
That’s what former East Germany looks like. And such is the Blog a Bull.

I like Bulls fans
They ain’t too different from us, except their golden youth was pyrite and ours looks to be diamonds. Luck shined on them just like us, and while they’re a much bigger/more historic city, we got the owner who ain’t cheap and a GM who is both wise and handsome. Both online fanbases are vocal as well.
Overall, I like ‘em a lot.

Or maybe it’s just the Blog a Bull crowd. They’re vocal and intelligent, sorta. I think they have something to legit to say about having a talented roster and squandering it. But then, our GM is so much smarter than their GM that it make my head hurt.

pay attention Mortimer! We are in this to win it and then gloat until the wave crests at which point we’ll return to humility. Until then never back down
Its easy to sit around and talk about the PTB but the Truth is your buddy, my buddy and somebody’s buddy is in Iraq or Afghanistan or somewhere else doing what they are are doing which is defending our right to say whatever we want on the Bedge. It may not seem that way but thats the way it is. That’s why I got your back.
thats why today is Independence day and not communist day. I know the Bedge isnt a platform for political rhetoric but truly it is. Its a chance
