Top 5 Moments in BlazersEdge History?

Guys, I've only been a reader of this website for 2 years, which although is still longer than most, isn't too long. However, in honor of LetsBlaze, and a comment one of us made during has incredible interview that he let us conduct with Shav earlier tonight, this HAS GOT TO BE a top 5 moment in this website's history.  Question, what else do you think belongs up here, and does the interview make the list?

I remember the night when the Darius Miles Email was sent being crazy

At the time I thought it was a good thing… And that is why people should not take legal advice from me.

Obviously the 07 lottery thread is a classic that everyone should read, I read it after the fact because that was before my time on this great site.

There won't be clean officiating in the NBA until David Stern is forcibly removed by the US Congress in 2013 for fixing games.

he cussed in the draft lottery thread

Dave then made a rule that every time the Blazers win the lottery, damir is allowed to cuss in the lottery thread.

Winning the lottery a few years back.

That was a magical time to be on B-Edge. Sometimes I like to go back and read the reactions after we got the pick. ahhhh Great memories. :)

1. Draft day 2007 Thread
2. Changing over to new format
3. 2 on 2 tournament
4. updates of RUdy
5. Shav interview

I thought it was fun

when we did the gameday thread over at the miami site. Props to the guys who arranged that, I can’t remember who that was, sorry.

Hmmm

I would say the 2007 draft thread was up there, as was the first game this year. and the shav chat.

The Misidentified Blazer

It’s probably not in most top 5 lists, but it really cracked me up.

Wow--that draft day thread was cool.

Also, Fatty’s main page article was interesting. I kept thinking “manifesto.”

It's spelled "PRZYBILLA."

The 2007 lottery thread is easily my favorite

I had to work away from a computer that day (we had an offsite) so I couldn’t follow the draft. And the previous time I followed the draft, I watched intently and felt like bad luck. So I ignored it.

I was picking up dinner later, completely distracted from the lottery, and my wife (gf then) called and asked if I was happy about the news. “What news?”. Then she told me :)

First thing I did when I got home, other than look at the ESPN.com story, was pop onto BE and read the thread. I knew it would be insane. :)

I lurked back then so I didn't take part

I was scared of all the mean people here.

my favorite moments

are when we all descend from our parents’ attics get out and gather together in non-internets world (read: agency, freedarko @ powell’s, and the soon-to-be-realized pregame tailgates).

i'm ready to graduate now.

kthx.

Bedge Night was awesome

The open thread for the Houston game where Broy hit “The Shot” was incredible.

the open thread when rudy dunked over dwight howard and subsequent freaking out……. and then a few days later the hilarious post by jscot about it was awesome.

Draft time stuff is cool…the open threads, but especially where 30 of us got to be GMs and make our own BE mock draft. THAT was fun. Emailing people trying to swing deals and whatnot.

I was the Celtics…ended up with Jason Thompson at #30. There were some fun deals though….lots of trade proposals. I tried to trade up because I wanted Kevin Love, who I thought would be the perfect guy to get mentored by KG haah.

Yeah, fun stuff. Amlmart’s Rudy updates were always sweet, and the euphoria that hit when he came was cool.

Oden showing up at Pioneer Square was sick…the videos and discussion that went on around here was crazy.

Remember that one time some kid pretended to be Ben’s cousin, and then got banned in like 30 seconds? That was awesome.

Everclear is the worse band of all time.

Best day ever.
That’s the day I joined BlazersEdge.
Maybe not such a big day for anyone else, but for me it was big to move from a visitor to part of the family.

noobs

geeze I am a full two months older than you guys. Bow to me old-ness and experience

From the back of Travis Outlaw's Franz card: Travis leads the team in monstrous thunder dunks, wins awards for post game interviews, and often gets extra points for degree of difficulty.

From the back of Greg Oden's Franz card: Nickname: Jaws. Has an insatiable desire to tear rims apart while cruising the open court, and was once interested in using head-gear for his profession.

to know that 92 is joking about just joking.

He would never accept X-man after barely a month of Bedging. You have to put in at least 90 days and have a couple SERGIO OR BAYLESS? posts before you can be accepted.
