The Shortcomings of NBA Media Coverage

The Blazer's Edge Podcast is on the air! Today Phil Naessens of the Phil Naessens Show (and national media fame) and I discuss coach firings, All-Star lineups, this summer's free agents, and trade talk, but most of all we lament the current state of NBA media coverage, a topic which took on a life of its own.

As we detailed here, we've already donated over 1100 tickets so underprivileged children and youth can see the Portland Trail Blazers face the Sacramento Kings on March 28th. We're trying to get that number to 2000. Can you help out with a ticket or two?

Donating is easy. Just click here and use the promo code:

Promo Code: BLAZERSEDGE

Ticket Costs range from $7-13 (There is a $5 processing fee per order.)

You can also call our ticket rep, Lisa Swan, directly at 503-963-3966. You will need to indicate to her that you are donating the tickets you order to Blazer's Edge Night.

You can send 2 kids for less than $20. You can send 10 kids for $100. The investment pays more dividends than you can dream of.

Also...with 2000 tickets on the horizon we will probably have room to say "yes" to a few more people. We've had requests for entire grade levels at some schools and request from grandmothers who have one grandchild they'd really like to take. We honor those and everything in between. If you work with underprivileged youth or children and would like to request tickets, my e-mail is right below.
