The Blazers game.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"100_1304\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Starting lineups… Yay Blazers!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"100_0098\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Pregame.. the Ford Bold moves Blimp.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This game was one of the wildest games I’ve been to.. or seen in my life.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

No kidding… no joking.  This was one for the books.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Click here for a video review of this game… you gotta see this.<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Things not said- at the end when we foul Damon Stoudamire… time doesn’t stop and runs out (as you can see when you watch the review).  The refs huddled for a few minutes and determined that the foul was before time ran out.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Then Stoudamire missed the 2nd free throw on purpose (so time would just run out) and when Udoka (for the Blazers) got the rebound, the time ran out– but the refs blew the whistle seemingly at the same moment.  SO they huddled for a few more minutes and determined that the foul was made before the time ran out.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The arena was 1\/2 empty because most everyone left when with about 8 seconds left.  Wow did they miss out.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Crazy crazy game.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

He hit the first free throw, but *sigh* missed the 2nd.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

So kinda a bummer that we didn’t win.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

However it was a heckofa game to watch and be at.  Just wish we woulda hit that free throw.  <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

That didn’t spoil the night.  We entered into the arena, and upon getting to our seats we were liking the view.  Why?  Take a look at the two pictures below.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"100_1301\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

That was our seat view..<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"last2\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Squint to see that text… the arrow points to our seats last time we were at a game.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Pretty good eh?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We are sitting at our seats and a member of the Blazers organization comes to us, asking “hey are you the guys who wanted to take a picture on the court?”  (I had asked them by email if this was possible).<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Surely.  We were escorted down to the floor.  He explained we could take a few pictures.  They are below:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"100_0094\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

We were on the court.  We walked right by Zach Randolph (pictured shooting).  Wow…..<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"100_1297\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

He was like.. Okay how about a picture on the Blazers Bench?<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

SHWEET.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Of course!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

And then… the picture I’ve longed for…. and a place I’ve wanted to be since I’ve been a fan…… tonight was the night!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"100_1298\"<\/a> <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Yes, thats a Memphis player behind us.  The teams were practicing- he told us that they typically don’t do this- – but made arrangements for us.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Oh yeah baby.  Oh yeah.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

I was pretty down about things, until I reviewed these photos, and once again I am happy.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

What an amazing night.  And a pretty amazing game.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

God pretty much knew this would make my night.  Me and Him, we go back… Wayyy back.  Back into time.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
