    Was anyone else aware that 620am has been doing non-stop Blazer radio since 6:00pm last night?

    Just seems forced and marketing driven. Cashing in on fan excitement. But like I said, whatever. The sheep will baaaa and they'll get ratings.

    Are they still blacking out the actual game on the online stream due to the NBA owning all broadcasting rights?

    yes, they are. However I've been able to find it online via some coastal stations (Astoria, Newport) at times.

    Admitting you have a problem is the first step on the road to recovery.

    I'd rather laugh with the Sinners than cry with the Saints.

    the NBA has a site that you can listen to any game online for free.

    http://www.nba.com/allaccess/watchListen.html

    Just click on the 2nd tab in the middle... bam.

    $hit's been great. Listened to the final minutes of game 2 last night. And a great interview with Mercy Mercy Jerome Kersey this morning.

    Who's this dude on now? Craig something?

    He's getting me even more fired up than I already am. Not good for my productivity.

    Craig Birnbach--he's a local sports anchor, originally from New York. I really like his fire; we need a bit more East Coast around here.
