I think you messed up.......... there is a picture of a white guy in the lineups!

 

[HailBlazers]

Looks good! Based on Starting line-ups we should smash these guys.

Thanks for catching the mistake. I've corrected it

 

[VanillaGorilla]

Great job again Darkwebs! Love the starting lineup pics.

Denny, there is something wrong with the forum software. There's an illegal alien posting!

 

[THE HCP]

But there is still a white guy in it!

Its Salt Lake City.. They have to have a white guy in it.

I wonder if a real black guy has ever grown up in SLC. I don't mean a Carlton from The Fresh Prince of Bel Air kinda black.......... i'm talkin' Omar from The Wire black!

All i found were statistics from 2000, but the percentage on black people in SLC was 1.9% while Portland's was 6.6%. So the black population is significantly smaller than it is here. Plus, over 50% of people in SLC are Mormon..

I never realized how few black people actually live in Portland til I started traveling for work. Half my friends and schools growing up were 1/2 white 1/2 black! I'd bet 6% of the 6.6% were in my neighborhood!

 

[andalusian]

6% of 6.6% is 0.4%.

 

[THE HCP]

6% of 6.6% is 0.4%.

How about 6% OF THE 6.6% .....computer math nerd!

 

[Darkwebs]

It's my birthday. 19!!!

Happy Birthday VG! Let's hope the Blazers can win this game for ya.

 

[julius]

Wait, half your friends were black and half of your friends were white? Or half of your friends where half black and white? So like, a quarter of your friends were of mixed parents? So 75% of your friends where polish?

 

[julius]

Any chance you can post a picture with JUST the Blazers logo (that size too)?

 

[Darkwebs]

Batum shakalaka!!

 

[DUB]

Nic!

 

[Darkwebs]

Giving up offensive boards to the opposition again.

 

[B-Roy]

Can't grab a board.

 

[EGame]

I guess we have determined we aren't going to rebound tonight.

 

[RoyToy]

It's so much nicer playing the Jazz without Sloan and Deron. Deron would get into the paint at will and the whole defense would just collapse and it would happen all game long.

 

[illmatic99]

That was a sick sequence by Nic. Blocking Miles while flat footed and then driving coast to coast to bang on Jefferson.

 

[hypnosmurf]

Does anyone have a working link?

thanks

 

[Darkwebs]

Batum is kicking butt out there. Nice aggessiveness on the offensive end

 

[DUB]

Nic always plays better when he backs himself.

 

[RoyToy]

Blow these fuckers out and get some rest for tomorrow night

That should be the mindset
