You use Chrome right?
Do you know if there is a way to block the NFL ad? I have AdThwart installed but it doesn’t block it…
No words.

That's so weird.
I’m using adthwart and it’s currently blocked. Is there a block option when you right-click on the ad or anything?
It's not blocked for me eithr..
I"m using adthwart with Chrome.
"Rudy is not everyday a shooter," Fernandez said. "He's defense. He's passes. He's assists."
anything I can do about it?
besides complain
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
Adblock Plus on firefox is what I believe most folks are using
As noted above, Adthwart on Chrome is iffy.
Complaining is good. I don’t know if anyone has actually mentioned it to Dave, I haven’t had a chance.
thank you
it’s really causing some havoc.. not just slow but sometimes the page goes back on its own… frustratin’
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
what a guy
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
It has been pretty jittery for me.
"Rudy is not everyday a shooter," Fernandez said. "He's defense. He's passes. He's assists."
I was thinkin' more like last couple years...
but I guess I’m fussy…

more like 5 in 9
Nate likely to pull the reigns back for no good reason
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
Nate is a control freak. That is all the reason he thinks he needs.
He will be totally out coached by SVG.
i say he only gets
13 minutes
wants to challenge the definitions of sin and search the world for lovers of ultimate beauty but never settle in.

I'm almost rooting for that in a perverse sort of way...
If Nate’s gonna be an obstacle, let’s get the obstacle identified so that it can be removed expeditiously…
"A bizarre and extremely rare hybrid Blazer/Laker fan, Timbo has always struggled to contain the Beast Within, like Dr. Jekyll, Bruce Banner, or Ted Kennedy." — Miled Animal
Yes, there is a silver lining to everything right? I thought that when he pulled
Martell for no good reason..oh..that’s right..I forgot…BLAKEY needed to get minutes. And Phx went on a 10-0 run…AT LEAST THIS IS ON NATIONAL TV…WHERE NATE’S INANE SUBSTITUTION WAYS WILL BE NOTICED. …I think it’s the "oh, he’s warming up…getting HOT…better pull him…put in someone else who is a god awful match up and see if our guys will show some SCRAP..WHEN THEY HAVE TO COME BACK FROM A DEFICIT…
Okay...Put down the triple grande mocha for a second...
Seriously, you’re going to have a heart attack if you’re going to go off everytime Nate does this.
I prefer to think the other way…expect it to happen and be pleasantly surprised when Nate doesn’t pull someone that gets going.
52 + 88 = 140% better team.
Orlando has two awesome defensive point guards
in Williams and Johnson. My question is will they ever have to guard him?
#52
I am also curious to see Reddick or Carter try to stay up with him.
The real question for me is how Jerryd handles the team defensive aspects of this game, i.e. Dwight Howard.
#52
I think Bayless played too well for Nate to limit his minutes
Unless Bayless really blows it, I think he get’s 18+ minutes.
"Rudy is not everyday a shooter," Fernandez said. "He's defense. He's passes. He's assists."
Oregonian's Freeman Reporting Pendergraph To Suit Up Tonight...
Good luck to Jeff in his first NBA game!
That is great news
Does this mean Tolliver gets sent back to teh D-League?
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
That's a relief, because Tolliver is DUE!
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
Yeah...he's been here what, almost 44 hours?
He’s been riding on the gravy train for too long. That lazy good-for-nothing.
52 + 88 = 140% better team.
Freeman's gameday report at Olive says Pendy is out
unless J-Lu has a link to another report

Jeff Pendergraph activated for tonight’s game at ORL after missing the 27 games w/ hip injury. Travis Outlaw moves to the inactive list.
No words.

yah
bayless leaves over my dead body
Start Bayless (in a 2 guard lineup)
if you should strike Oden down he will become more powerful than you can possibly imagine

Can someone give a rational explanation of why blake plays 36 minutes a game?
by thomasikehara on Dec 19, 2009 3:36 PM PST up reply actions
I wonder who would go in first, if the situation called for it...
Pendy, or Tolliver???
RUDY > MJ
#52
We need something rudiculous to happen this game
say…. Bayless dunk on Howard?
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
You know someone should email the rose garden people and get the Jurassic Park rex sound for Bayless
Garden Variety Internet Denizen. Play Jerryd Bayless.
WORD UP.STAY.FRESCO
I wonder if Bayless knows people call him Rex.
I am pretty sure Ben. has talked about it before but I don’t recall what he said…
No words.
#52
he better learn to like it!
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
Well this is weird
Can someone else who doesn’t normally get NBA TV, turn it to NBA TV and see if they get it right now?
Because it is working for me. Dunno why, but I’ll take it.
#52
You're outside Portland right now, right? If so, you should see it.
A lot of cable systems are adding NBA TV to non-sport packages, along with NFL TV.
Sport packages now consist of stuff like college sports, ESPN U and Classic, and outdoor or tennis channels.
Well I tried to go to NBATV the other day
And it did the “subscribe, call this #” blah blah screen.
Now, it seems like I got it!
I just went to Time Warner’s site, looked at my channel listings, and unless I am seeing it wrong it looks like it is part of my “variety” cable package now. It wasn’t just the other week!
Nice!
Sorry everyone… this year, everything is coming up MORTIMER.
#52
I can't even remember if I have the "variety" tier
But it’s also part of the HD tier, and I do got that…
#52
I like NBA TV games purely because I can see them in HD
Even if they sometimes use the other team’s announcers. The announcers seem to tone it down when they’re also on NBA TV at least.
Yeah, looks good
I have never seen an HD game in my own home, at least with the BLAZERS. It’s a whole new world!

It really is awesome

What kind of day will it be?
Blazers win = good day
Jayhawks win = good day
Blazers + Jayhawks win = great day!
KU vs Michigan win – check
Blazers vs Orland ? GO BLAZERS!
Make this a great day. . . .

never should have changed it
Bullets was very reflective of the culture
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
If Steve Blake comes into the game 3.5 minutes into the game I'm gonna scream
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
well neither will I but 3.5 minutes into the game
there’s something wrong about that
"In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him."
I would be surprised if we do tonight
Magic got a lot of guys we need to defend, and that should mean Marty.
#52
MIller is aggressive tonight
I think he is a little pissed about riding the pine last game…
RUDY > MJ
