I was in NOLA in 98 for a home inspectors convention . There are shady parts but if you stay in the tourist area you were OK. One of my old friends from a municipality I worked for went to Memphis and he said the same thing as you.
I had a friend who was a phenomenal keyboardist and he went on to form a company that produced music clips and special effects for minor league baseball. His company was/is centered in Nashville.
Thats about the perfect amount of time.
Hey since youve been traveling with the team, has having a day off in between games during this trip helped you guys with fatigue. I’m sure traveling that much is still pretty tiring. Just wondering if not having to do back to backs and fly all over has helped.
The days off have helped. Back to backs are brutal. 3 games in 5 nights wear you out!!! But we (media guys) are beat just because it's been 15 straight days on the go. And these 2 afternoon games have really thrown our clocks off. Love my gig though. I've had REAL jobs, so I ain't complaining.
Nice shots! Gotta put these in our Photo Thread over on the OT page FAMS!
I travel some for work, but its usually like 4-5 days and only a few times a year. I cant imagine traveling that much. Hope you guys (all of you) have had a good trip, even outside of basketball. For those of you with spouses and kids, seems like it would be brutal. Nothing of course as bad as the military life, but still hard.
When I was in the army, I had no family, so it wasn't that big of a deal. Could put all my attention on being a stone cold assassin collecting confirmed kills. Yeah, being away from the kids is tough.
Don't worry. I think you have the year right. 20019 the Blazers might still be in Portland and playing for a Championship!
But I highly doubt there would still be a team in Memphis in 20019!
Good point.
We just want more pictures.
