In the much bigger scheme of things, last night's game was a real bummer. One would have thought the Blazers would have pulled themselves together enough to beat a really crappy team and salvage a 3-3 road trip. But no. It seems this game meant a lot more to me than it did to them.

On a lighter note, I am wondering if Bedge management might be able to tweak the jersey contest entry form so that when one is entering one can't screw things up so that their points get properly credited to them? As it is, I would have the honor and distinction of being the second highest scorer among those who only remembered to enter 7 times in January IF all of my points went to the same user name. But no, since the form allows you to use different user names with the same e-mail address, I have points under one user name for 6 games and points under another one for 1 game. What happened is that for that one game (one, I think, that I entered via my iPad) the first letter of my username was capped when it shouldn't have been-one annoying aspect of the iPad. Seems that the form shouldn't allow one to sign in using different usernames with the same e-mail address, right?

Small potatoes, I realize, when compared to the Blazers' woes. BTW, I was looking at the schedule for remaining games and if we think a 6 game road trip was rough, it looks like they have a 7 gamer in March! And all I have to worry about is making sure I don't accidentally screw up my jersey contest entries 8>)!
