Around SBN: Raiders' GM Begins The Purge

Jokes to Lighten the Mood

Okay, so that game was horrible and we all said things we probably regret now, myself included. 

So I think we all need to take a deep breath, forgot about basketball for a while and have a good time

So here's some jokes; feel free to include your own.

"I want to die like my father, quietly in  his sleep--not screaming and terrified, like his passengers." -Bob Monkhouse

And finally a long joke:

Star-divide

A blonde and a lawyer are seated next to each other on a flight from Los Angeles to New York. The lawyer asks if she would like to play a fun game? The blonde, tired, just wants to take a nap, politely declines and rolls over to the window to catch a few winks. The lawyer persists and explains that the game is easy and a lot of fun. He explains, "I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me $5.00, and vise versa."

Again, she declines and tries to get some sleep.

The lawyer, now agitated, says, "Okay, if you don't know the answer you pay me $5.00, and if I don't know the answer, I will pay you $500.00."

This catches the blonde's attention and, figuring there will be no end to this torment unless she plays, agrees to the game.

The lawyer asks the first question. "What's the distance from the earth to the moon?"

The blonde doesn't say a word, reaches into her purse, pulls out a $5.00 bill and hands it to the lawyer. "Okay, " says the lawyer, "your turn".

She asks the lawyer, "What goes up a hill with three legs and comes down with four legs?"

The lawyer, puzzled, takes out his laptop computer and searches all his references, no answer. He taps into the air phone with his modem and searches the net and the library of congress, no answer. Frustrated, he sends e-mail to all his friends and coworkers, to no avail. After an hour, he wakes the blonde, and hands her $500.00.

The blonde says, "Thank you," and turns back to get some more sleep.

The lawyer, who is more than a little miffed, wakes the blonde and asks, "Well, what's the answer?"

Without a word, the blonde reaches into her purse, hands the lawyer $5.00, and goes back to sleep.

Quick said it earlier today

Roy is tired from having to guard larger SFs, which is to be expected. He’s pumping iron to try to build up his strength, but at the end of a week-long game road trip I think Brandon can be excused if he doesn’t look as fresh as a rested Joe Johnson

Meanwhile, his teammates got killed on the boards in the 4th quarter. “That” was the game

When reached 40 years of following Portland basketball you have, be as passionate of the Trail Blazers you will not!

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.
