Wheels hands down. I still get chills watching his call of Lillards series clincher.

Wheels.

Tone is close behind. He speaks his mind.

MB is the company man and won't say anything negative about the team, even if they deserve it.

Rice -- I'm not sure if he's 100% coherent most of the time.
 
Rice is getting more votes than Barrett? I like Rice, but the guy is getting old and cant get his thoughts out clearly a lot of times. Barrett is good, very good.
 
You're inviting me right?

Before voting, I needed to decide how to get to my free, season-long Moda suite, from here in Bellingham. I figured, I can afford a second home, a winter cottage. I'd rent an apartment a few blocks from the arena, hang out there on game nights, and because of the long drive, probably end up living there most days of the season. I'd invite all the board members to fill up the suite, and party at my apartment after games.

But then I was stricken with an unpleasant bout of conscience. How will all my stoned and drunk fellow board-members drive home without getting busted? So I amended my business plan. My apartment would be on the Washington side of the border, where grass is legal. As for you guys making it home, I'll buy a big hippie van and employ a driver. Or you could sleep it off at my place, in which case I'll put triple locks on my bedroom door.

I wouldn't have voted in the poll if I hadn't composed a victory plan first. That's how we detail-oriented types roll. Macho Bookkeepers Unite!

You have this worked out fairly well, but have missed the obvious choice for designated driver: BlazerWookee. He only drinks Coors Light, rarely over 14 of them, and the measly amount alcohol in them would be burned off eating chicken wings.
 
Alcohol + grease must light a fire under his chicken wings like a Saturn 5!
 
Rice is my vote, and strictly because he makes me laugh with all the crazy shit he says. The guy is like drunk the entire broadcast.
 

This is taking shape. I have an old suburban, no problem spray painting it with pinwheels, flowers, and the odd unicorn. You pick up the very best weed on the way down. My goal is to get extremely paranoid and be unable to leave the parking structure to watch the game. Thank goodness for Wheels.

I don't know if I necessarily agree with the MB thing... I think he can be fair at times, and does talk somewhat negatively about the team when the situation calls for it. Plus, I think he has damn good pipes for PbP.
 
Just about anything anyone does is better than Dwight Jaynes. But he is a giant fan of the Blazers so I give him some slack.
 
The second Rippy Award is for Trail Blazer Broadcaster of the Year!

Remember all votes enters you to win use of a suite for an upcoming game during the 2014-15 Trail Blazer season!

Wheels all the way, Baby!
 
Just a few hours left to get your vote in!
 
I wanted to vote for crazy uncle Mike but calmer heads prevailed and voted for MB.
