Well, it's two minutes after midnite and you know what that means.

Obviously, the biggest topic at hand is Brandon's knee, and I'm sure there will be some busy BEdging ahead of us tomorrow. In the meantime, sleep well o Blazers fans, or come here for your late-nite chat. We'll be spinning all the hits to take you from midnite to midnite, so fasten your safety belts and ease back in your chairs - we should be hitting some turbulence but the turntables wobble, they don't fall down.

 

p.s. I know I (12sharks) have written some pretty dumb-butt fanposts lately and I promise I'm not a jerk or trying to gain any enemies. I'm not pleading for understanding or anything, I'm just offering an honest and sincere apology if I've gotten anyone's feathers ruffled. Thanks. I will try to be awesomer in the future (or less unawesome, anyway).

Ooops

I think I posted one right after yours. I think Dave or someone got it.

Ive been waiting for a guide to come and take me by the hand,

ps

You shouldn’t be apologizing for stuff you put out on the internet. At least that kind of stuff. You did nothing wrong. It did feel like people tore into you a little bit, but it happens sometimes. Shouldn’t let it discourage you.

I'm not discouraged whatsoever..

but the last post I made was just plain bad. I considered taking it down because of that reason, but thought it’d be best to let it stand.

I’m not apologizing for my point of view at all, but if I say or do something out of line in public or amongst friends (and BEdge is kind of sort of like either of those) I make a point to own up to it.

You shouldn’t be apologizing for stuff you put out on the internet.

Honestly, if more people felt accountable for their actions online and fessed up when they messed up, the world would be a better place. But, your opinion’s your opinion, dude.

Well by that I mean

When you post your ideas in a respectful and calculated manner you shouldn’t apologize for posting it. Because I post in such a spur of the moment manner, sometimes my posts are garbage and other times I feel like they have a pensive quality in their message. The idea behind them though, is always honest, and is trying to be constructive. I feel like you are apologizing because you thought you made a bad (in quality) fanpost or a couple of them. Which doesn’t make too much sense to me. Sure people can disagree with you, but I don’t see why you should apologize for taking the time to write them out. I’m sure some people appreciated them.

I kinda tripped out a little, my bad. fortunatly I dont have the stamina to sustain it, and after the last post I mad I left the thread and will not return. I wonder if I have ireperaly changed other peoples view of me, but oh well, what can I do.

I’ll always read your stuff, cause even if I dont agree, it allways has made me think.

I like that the Blazers announced the surgery so late

A whole day plus the night to worry about it would be too much.

Now, only people up later know about it and many won’t have seen it until they get the news tomorrow morning that everything is okay.

That’s the way to do it.

If he’s hurt worse I’m gonna kill myself just so I can meet the Basketball Gods and kick them in their stupid nuts.

Lucky for me they have a sense of humor and don’t mind me saying things like that.

Just in case they don’t like it, I remind them I can kick pretty hard, repeatedly. They should know the correct outcome for this situation…

Try to focus on something in the meantime, take some sleeping pills, Nyquil (not too much of either, don’t die ya silly), wake up and learn what happened. If we all think positive it’ll be okay.

Approach it with the confidence you bring to an Outlaw trade suggestion: ain’t gonna happen. Nuh uh.

Maybe I make a little Kobe voodoo doll and put a pin in his knee…

Nah. Make a little Brandon voodoo doll and plaster his knee with

a poultice of comfrey, borage and a dab of goldenseal. Change the poultice daily and talk to the doll frequently. That’ll work.

British site Basketball 24/7 has a quite extensive interview with Joel Freeland

I’ll also post it in the fanshots. Here is the link.

The gist is that he couldn’t play in summer league due to his club, the Blazers still tell him he is a part of their future, and he wants to stay some more in Europe and develop instead of coming over early.

I commented in your fanpost, but you know no one reads those things

Basically, I was impressed that he knew he wasnt ready for the NBA, is looking to get better and plans on coming over when he and the blazers are ready. No sense of entitlement, which is refreshing to hear.

by twiggs on Aug 14, 2008 7:37 AM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Hmmmmmmmm....

I’m not convinced he is dunking in that first picture. Escaping from a mouse run amuk? Or somebody has hoisted him up to the rim on their shoulders and is now preparing to hand him the ball…you can almost read his lips, “Yes, from this extreme height the ball does indeed look slightly smaller”. Naturally I’ve translated for your reading pleasure.

The guy in the background is simply shocked to be witnessing the whole thing.

Dear God,
It's me, Twiggs.
Please, oh please, let Brandon Roy have a speedy recovery.
Us Blazer fans don't ask for much in this life. All we want is our team to be healthy (and win). You would really be doing a service to us if you had him bounce back in a few weeks (without pushing it). I promise I won't ask for anything ever again (until the regular season anyhow).

Thank you,

it wasnt that bad

not only did I make it thru the appointment without even needing Nitrous, I heard before I went in from Dave this a.m. on 95.5 that everything went smoothly with Brandon’s surgery.

So that only makes the intolerable heat my only thing to complain about right now.

Speaking of Dave on the radio this morning, he actually made a funny when he said Arvydas was 82 years old when he joined the PTB. Get a chuckle out of anyone else?

when I go to the dentist

I specificaly let them know that my phobia is so intence that nitrice is nessassary. tip – there is a leagal limit and with persistance, you can find it. slow your breathing, no matter how much they tell you to breathe normal, the ideal is to match the pace that the nitrice is being added. once youve maxed out, ask for a little increase, ask the nurce if your a guy, any male if your a grrrl, youll get more sympathy. tell them that you can still feal your face(you kant) and are just a little concerned, practice and persistance will pay HUGE dividends in this regard. and most important, CONTRAL YOUR ROLL!!! Nothing gets you cut off faster then flashing the staff. :-(

And ‘momentarily’. Although when Mike Rice says ‘We should be seeing Sergio on the floor momentarily.’ he usually gets it right, but not intentionally.

“Like a stupid g”.. ?

Do stupid gangsters even POST polls on sports-fan sites? Also, stupid gangster like a stupid Al Capone or a stupid 50Cent?

Regardless, I’m sorry you’re having a tough time deciding on the option you’d like to vote for. Even though many others seem to have done so with effortless panache, I blame myself. I know that the Junk Drawer is a place people go to find some seriousness and integrity in this otherwise fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants world, and you’re absolutely right – I was way too lighthearted in my attempt.

Unfortunately, what’s done is done and, aside from shutting this abomination of a poll down, here’s what I can do for you:

1. Give you a hint: I’ve actually taken the poll and can see the results. If you like, I can let you know which one’s the most popular and you can cast your vote with confidence knowing that, even if you don’t understand this crazy street talk, you’ll at least have safety in numbers (double hint: it’s the first one).

2. Make you your own answer: I can edit the poll and add another option to select of your very own creation. This way, you can click the circle with certainty, knowing that, yes, this time you’re really making a statement you can comprehend and believe in. I promise – whatever you want me to type in there, I’ll do it (site rules abiding) and you can cast your singular vote on this very serious matter of what one of Brandon Roys body parts says as soon as I update it.

C. Quit whining: Take a chill pill and let it be.

So, make your choice, hombre – the world is dying to know what you think on this talking knee matter!

p.s. Thanks for the constistently positive and thought-provoking comments you’ve been sending in my direction of late. It’s like having my own personal PippenAintEasy. Seriously, though, what’s the deal? Did I spill a drink on you or something?

Your post needs to be in the urban section at Walmart

You’re too “in our face” with your realness of the streets, 12sharks (which I assume is some reference to a street gang that sells drugs).

I think 12sharks has consistently set the record for inadvertantly pissing people off here at Blazers Edge! :)

What is it with people ragging on the Big 12? I don’t get what buttons he pushes that gets some gizzards engorged.

Oh well, 12sharks seems to handle it ok. I’d be always “MAN WHAT DID I DO?!” because I’m a wimp who needs constant reaffirmation.
