Blazers @ Bobcats

Emily and I made the 2.5 hour drive down to Charlotte last night to watch our beloved Portland Trailblazers take on the woeful Charlotte Bobcats.............and they lost!!

Emily and Jay (her friend from next door) cheered their heads off, but just couldn't will the Blazers to victory. I was proud of her for being so vocal in the middle of enemy territory. A great Nike friend hooked us up with tickets, so we sat 10 rows from the floor at mid-court. No complaints about that!

Here is our obligatory self-portrait. We love doing this!


Greg!! Gregg!! WE LOVE YOU, GREG!! We don't care if you foul out in the 4th with only 6 points, Greg. We still believe.


An off night for Brandon (especially at the line) but it was still good to see him play.
After the game, a season ticket holder in front of us asked, "I wonder who you were rooting for?" Emily looked him dead in the eye and responded, "Hey, I was born in Portland!" The season ticket holders all around us had a good time watching the kids cheer for the road team.

I would like to say Go Blazers, but they looked tired and Greg got dunked on pretty bad by GWallace.

The pics are great, and it is nice to have fans at all again.

GO BLAZERS....Thanks Emily.

We always kept the faith - even when the Blazers sucked!
