Nothing But (Inter)Net!

The fortuitous winds of success are once again blowing through the great Pacific Northwest. Our hometown NBA team, the Portland Trail Blazers, is currently experiencing an incredible ascension, both on and off the court.
It was only a few short years ago that Blazer fandom hit rock bottom here in Rose City. The team’s roster was riddled with players of questionable character (to put it politely), ticket sales were at all-time lows, and rumors of bankruptcy swirled throughout the league. Today, however, the franchise is on-track to make the playoffs for the first time since the 2002-2003 season, due in large part to its upgraded group of core players. Rather than filling-out its roster with troubled individuals such as Rasheed Wallace, Bonzi Wells and Zach Randolph, the Blazers now boast highly likeable, tremendously skilled players, such as Brandon Roy, LaMarcus Aldridge, and Greg Oden.
