Where you'll find you're friendly neighborhood Ripcityboy flowing through the local vinyl rack like a shut-in clicking on Internet porn. Looking for that ONE stray copy of Who's Next to prove the whole process has value!

Warning - TOTALLY OT:

I still have my original vinyl Who's Next album I bought back in college. I also have Who's Next, Quadrophenia and The Singles on SACD (amazing sound quality). I no longer have my 8 track tapes from high school, though. I'll be seeing The Who twice in September. First at Caesar's Palace in Vegas with my girlfriend and then at the Moda Center five nights later with my son.

I actually LOVE to cruise the local GW stores looking for vintage audio gear and used CDs. I gave up on the used vinyl at GW, as most of it's in pretty bad shape. When I buy vinyl, I usually bite the bullet and buy new. For CDs, I rip them in lossless, uncompressed AIFF format (bit for bit copy of the CD) to a 2007 Mac Mini I picked up off craigslist for $60 that's connected to a Cambridge Audio DAC Magic 100 (Christmas present from the girlfriend) that upsamples them to 24-bit/192KHz. This way the digital files sound better than the original disks (unless you happen to have a very expensive CD player with a great built-in DAC). I pay $1.99 each for the CDs, and only buy ones that are in like new condition. I get much more music at much better quality than paying $1.29 per track for crappy compressed iTunes tracks.

That's what I love about GW, every trip is an adventure. You never know what you're going to find.

He reminds me a lot of C web with his big hands, good handles and sweet stroke. That's Vonleh's upside if he can put it all together. I don't know if he can get there though. It's a very tall order

Webber was MUCH more athletic. Also probably the best passing PF of all time.

There are some great Facebook groups for audio techs and vinyl heads that you might want to join. I used to think porn was an Internet epidemic, but it's nothing compared to music lovers. There are some people whose personal habits revolve around their reel to reels and 8 tracks.
 
Maybe he doesn't...

Again, keep in mind who was still here just before he made his decision and who wasn't. I personally don't think they had issues.

That's my favorite comparison/ceiling I've come across. CWebb had more spring and fluidity but I think Vonleh may end up a more diverse threat and a better rebounder.

Hay guize. Stop trying to change the subject. Can we get back to yakking about how awesome Noah Vonleh is going to be in 3 years?

The Vonleh love reminds me of Nic when he was young
 
I didnt get to watch any summer league but you guys got me excited to see vonleh play
 
I think the best way to get back at him is to vote Meyers into the starting five of the Allstar game. Try to get him bumped.

Or, since Meyers doesn't stand a chance, figure out which PF/C is LaTex's primary opposition for the spot, and vote for that guy.

I will definitely be casting daily ballots next season. :)

Vancouver Wal-Mart is selling Blazers T-shirts for $18. They have a ton of #12 on display, but not many of any other number.

No, thanks. I got a Notorious RBG T-shirt for my sister for her birthday for half that.
 
Vonleh will be to us like Zach was when we lost Sheed. Of course, without the black hole offense and Hoops Fam.
