Andy's Offical BEdge Party Recap -With Pics, and Kicks and Poll

PrintWelcome to the Terror Dome, March 20th marks the 3rd anniversary of the day the infrequently updated SBnation blog Blazers Edge came into being, and this is what is has become. A Party! The kind where really really good people show up to!
Well Well Well, didn't that go nicely!? The Blazers Edge party I meant, not the game. So let's just go ahead and forget we played tonight, and while I re-watch this Indiana victory I have on Tivo let's try and remember back to earlier this evening, when I met all my new best friends and family.
There was literally hundreds of people trying to hang out with me so pardon me if I can't remember all of your names,
There was the Dude, that one guy, The other guy, plus Billy the Kid, Crocodile Dundee, and of course Billy Zane.
Then there were these people...

I have been reading this blog for 2 years or so and have never once thought that Sophia was an actual hot chick. I totally figured “she” was some 45 year old dude from Gresham or something. I stand corrected and also in love.

G.O. Blazers
Super fun pictures. Love being able to associate names and faces.
Reminds me of days-gone-by when CB’s were a big thing. You’d been talking to all these faceless guys over the airwaves for months, then y’all would meet up at a pizza joint for a “CB Break”. The faces never came close to how I’d imagined them to be.
My biggest surprise in all the above pictures? Quality Pie. I’d always enjoyed reading his posts and thought – because of his handle no doubt – that he would be a 250 pounder. Not. And Dave didn’t look like he did when I saw him on TV a couple years ago. Didn’t recognize him. And Jorga was supposed to be all grey, and Tom had on an ugly shirt and there were a lot of pretty girls there and it makes me think I should have made the trip down there and Andy appears so introverted ……..
Good job recording the event Andy.
Brandon Roy just destroyed everything in his path. There's your rational analysis -- Dave

My only regret was not introducing myself to all the gorgeous women there. All the women I did meet were stunning and all the men, burly. I love you all.
Tom, did you really buy a plane ticket just for this? No special event that just happened to be on the same day
If so, that’s commitment. Also, I was disappointed that I had more American Idol knowledge than you did. I looked up to you, man.

It was nice seeing you again friend.
I wanted to talk to you and your buddies more, but lame work kept me from staying out late. Have fun in Eugene!

I watched you randomly give some guy a hug that seamingly had no idea who you were
it was awsome. your as funny irl as online
Q: Do you feel the city of Portland still wants you?
A: I know this team does, the organization does. Everybody else, I don't worry about that. We worry about our family right here (in the locker room). I know I got their back and I know they're behind me.

Hey :-(
That’s an in-life joke I would do :-(
They come with handshake, you go in with hug. Now I’m a kopy kat.
I have (past) girlfriends and friends hug my mom when they meet her, telling them it is normal and she likes it. She hates it and it’s funny.
I dunno what people got against hugs, they is nice.

I have 6 sons
and hug them every time I see them (the oldest is 25). They know it’s coming, but seemed surprised by it. When I was a kid my Grandpa hugged me and kissed me. Times have changed, I’m fighting it.

My sons are huggers too so the tradition endures
as they (34 & 24) openly hug their sons and me still too. Even if you didn’t grow up that way (I did not) you can still start the tradition folks.

I too am a big hugger
but I’d totally be against hugging any gay dude.

Not to get into this too deeply
Any hug with a lady isn’t necessarily a sexual act, right?
It’s just like hugging a dude.
Such is hugging a gay guy. No one is getting any more thrill out of it than a normal hug.
Ladies are nicer to hug, of course, but a hug is a hug and if anyone is against them they are likely a terrorist.
Mortimore hugs pleeze!
One of my best GFs from when I was growing up,
was VERY top heavy, like back problem style, and her dad or step dad (i dont remember) magicly showed back up in her life when she was thirteen. I have no idea why, but at somepoint when she was sixteen, he confessed to her that when he gave her hugs, (and he did so quite often) he done so with the intention of fealling her brestessess against his chest, ect. I had better ettaquette then to ask for more details, But i’ve allways wondered just how bad that trashed her head and ability to trust.

I prefer how the Japanese greet each other.
No physical contact, nice and sanitary. Just bow, but keep your eyes on the other guy in case he pulls a shiv.

You have a point Morty.
No doubt, the great warmth of a hug is what it’s about.
Probably my casual but heartfelt hugs have never turned anyone on …. girl or guy (especially so now at my age). But I’d be so adverse to turning on a male. Probably has something to do with being hit on by queers now called gays (I don’t like that they stole that great word from our vocabulary either) at least three times when I was in my late teens, and mid 20’s. It disturbs me I suppose that they were attracted to me. Those weren’t really big deals as when I proclaimed to them in very clear and adamant terms my feelings about members of their sexual orientation, they readily backed off.
Society has become MUCH more accepting of gay’s since those times of course, and being an old relic my gay bias is old fashion and out of step. Believe me when I say it’s not religion influenced at all as I am no longer a religious person. There were about 8 or 9 of us guys that hung out through high school and well after ( I still fish etc. with 3 of them at least a few times yearly). One of these 8 or 9 guys we learned maybe a dozen years or so after high school is gay. He’s a great guy that everyone liked and I haven’t shunned him at all as a result (just talked to him a couple weeks ago). But I admit I want him to keep his gayness in the closet around me and not be talking about his relationships. (He hasn’t done that with me but he has with a couple of the other buddies in the group).
Several years ago now I read how autopsies revealed that a certain portion of the brain was bigger (or was it smaller — can’t remember which portion of the brain either) in homosexual’s than it was in hetros. That was a huge revelation to me!! It meant they were born that way and had no control over their sexual preference. Wow! I vowed to become more tolerant of them and I have, but not as much as I probably should. What I don’t like I guess is how it’s being thrown in our faces as being normal and everyone is suppose to be accepting it as such.
I hug most everyone during greetings and goodbye’s, but not him. It’s unfair I’m sure and it’s a problem of mine. Strange – although not at all unusual – that lesbians don’t provoke the same reaction in me. I’m sure it has to do with understanding how a female could be attracted to a female because of the fact that females to me are attractive/sexy. But how could a male be sexually attracted to another male since they aren’t attractive to me whatsoever in a sexual context? It just doesn’t compute in my brain.
Yeah I know, in this current society my bias’ aren’t attractive to many either.

Speaking of great comments
(Which someone did in one of these B.E.N. threads) – QP dropped a good one.
We were talking to “Bill” who confessed he didn’t want to reveal his screen name as he thought people might become hostile (now you know who I’m talking about) and QP very quickly said to him, “are you fatty???” Cracked up everyone around.

Yeah, on the car ride back "Bill" told me
that after giving out his screen name to a few people, and getting the “oh. you’re that guy. the guy who can’t spell” face each time, he decided to just be Bill for the rest of the night. Super nice guy.

prishiate the ride,
your sence of direction was impecable, and that 9 point 180 was classic. You HAVE to link us to any roster updates, that was just to priceless.
Q: Do you feel the city of Portland still wants you?
A: I know this team does, the organization does. Everybody else, I don't worry about that. We worry about our family right here (in the locker room). I know I got their back and I know they're behind me.
do you mind if we call you Bill?
or William or Billy?
It’s so much more personal. Like we only get to call a few people by their real name, like Tom and Sophia.
lol, Bill if you must
neither Billy nore William is my given name, believe it or not, just Bill

I like your signature Bill
does Oden think the fans have already given up on him?
Do you see him heading to the midwest when his rookie contract is up?
I don't know,
but I don’t think he hears anything but the loudest voices. I do believe he thinks the fans as a majority have given up on him, regardless of weather they are still nice to him when he’s out. You can see it in the way they look at you, and regardless of how young he is, he knows the difference from what it was when he first showed up. He can see misgivings. He certainly knows what hope, and admiration looks like from us.
I think he’ll grow up thow, and winning will change things. He has an opprotunity to cultavate a rair take on life, and might end up understanding us better then we ever understand him. I really think a lot depends on just how much he wants to play in the world. Portland isn’t exactly the best place for young mistakes(fun).
But again, a lot might depend on how the fanbase excepts him and how his lifestyle develops. I’ve had opprotunity to talk with people that have played various roles in his life, and I’m not all that sure that our ideas of how he should behove off the court are all to inline with his own. He’s a grown ass man, we’ll have to let him do his thing. Of course, I can’t be certain if what I’ve heard is accurate, cause I wasn’t there myself, But the same story from people that don’t even live in the same state….
It’s funny, couse I’ve been thinking about making a fanpost on the subject. What could we as fans live with and accept from Oden as far as off court behaviour goes? I think we might have to look at that and make some conseshens, if were to have a healthy relationship with him. This team made a hard right, and turned away from our past with the same vigor that a teanager rebels against the rule of his parrents. From one extreme to the other.I think a time is coming, when we’ll have to abandon our idea of camalot, for camalot to arive. I’m suspect to the health and validity of our collective expectations on this team. Kids drink, smoke pot, do other drugs, have sex, have lots and lots of sex, stay out late, meat unsavory people, ect. I think that will happen hear to, I just don’t think it will get as bad as it was. I think it will be much more balenced.

i'm not worried about his off the court stuff that much...
if he likes to drink, smoke pot and engage in gay liasons… as long as he shows up and puts in the work and plays to the best of his ability, I’m totally ok with that.
So, do you know people he grew up with or something?
one is a guy he went to college with,
of course, I’m sceptical off all their stories to a degree. When you have a certain amount of noteriety, anybody spouting your name like they know something will get attention. Sometimes, that corrupts the truth a little. That would apply for my comments as well, cause I truly don’t know.

“I just don’t think Outlaw has a good enough BBIQ”
For now, she’ll just have to be famous with the original.
