Something new! We have created the Blazers Radio text line, so you can text in to the show/game! The number to text is 503-987-0577. We start the pregame show in 5 minutes, so if you have any hot takes, send them in!
For those who didn't listen to the radio show today...I will be leaving the FAN at the end of next week. Starting in October, you will hear me as the Trail Blazers radio pregame/halftime/postgame host!
Hi everyone, I know it’s been a long time, but sadly I am returning with bad news.
A few months ago, I was diagnosed with ALS.
If you are willing and able, I have a GoFundMe below. The full details of the disease and story are there.
Thank you, everyone. These last two weeks have floored me. All of your tweets and texts and DMs have been so nice, and incredibly rewarding to read. I love you all, see you on the other side.
Sadly, this means the end of my radio career. I am thankful for all of those who listened over the last 12 years.
I am also thankful to The Fan and the Blazers for believing in me and helping me grow in my dream career
This has been really difficult for me, I am devastated and overwhelmed. I appreciate if you reach out, but please be patient as it is hard to respond to everyone and I’m not always ready to talk about it.
Just to be clear. The 3rd down run was a 1st down. The 4th down run was a 1st down. They, I guess, reviewed the second spot and confirmed it. Beavs go from 1st and goal at the 4 to the Huskies driving it down their throat. That’s an atrocious sequence by P12 refs.
Just recorded my final Beers on Us, about to do my final Hot Corner from 8-10, starting NOW! Tears have been shed twice, odds are in favor of a 3rd tonight.
Want some tight sports pants? My uncle received this today. His best friends brother passed, and was a memorabilia collector. Knowing they are huge Yanks fans, they were given this. !!!
Yahoo Sources: Portland Trail Blazers launch investigation into GM Neil Olshey with staffers alleging a 10-year toxic hostile work environment of intimidation, public profanity-laced tirades, mental anguish, among other bullying tactics.
Wanted to share something positive today. Got into a minor car accident yest on way home from station. Dad teaching his son to drive, he didn’t check and entered my lane when I was next to him. Got this text unprovoked today. Nice moment in a tough situation. Being kind works!

I think it’s really well done, but boy did it make me uncomfortable to listen to. Kind of like ‘Kim’ by Eminem. Not sure I can get multiple listens on it.
We’ve made it to game 82. What a blast of a first season this was with the Blazers!! Great people to work with, and a ton of fun to be here every game. Thanks for listening and interacting this season!
Oregon lost this game about 4x before that Nix drive. Dropped TD by Addison, missed FG, telegraphed 4th and 1, CONSERVATIVE 2nd half play calling, horrible TO management etc.
Wow. Money appeared in my account after Broncos/Chiefs went final in basically one minute. Now that the issues have faded, this

scoreboard app is sick!
This Alex Trebek news is really really sad. Having trouble thinking of a more iconic person, who was in basically everyone's household, who has had nothing bad said about him. This sucks.
What a gutsy win by the Blazers. The 2nd quarter had all of the bad vibes of last year, and then everything changed. Grant and Hart deserve a ton of credit in that 2nd half. So does Drew Eubanks for his defense!

Hey Stanford, USC, Oregon and Washington: It's all your fault.
Let’s be great baby, let’s be great. Let’s be great baby, let’s be great. Let’s be great baby, let’s go. Let’s be great baby, let’s be great baby. Let’s be great. Come on let’s be great baby let’s be great.
Read the whole thread. Had no clue this was happening at any major university, let alone right under our nose here at OSU. How can Mike Parker not be an employee/compensated well?
I’ve got one!
Hire Mike Parker and stop acting like he hasn’t poured his entire life and soul into Oregon State for the past 20+ years! Get him on OSU employee benefits and start treating him right! And dont tell me to delete this tweet this time because it “Makes you look bad”!
And so it begins! Coming up at 6:30 the Blazers pregame show for the game against the Clippers in Seattle begins! Come hang with me,

Won’t lie, did not think Blazers would win this game. What a performance, gutty early, clutch late, great defense. Thunder players not talking at all this game, wonder why?
If there aren't MAJOR changes this off-season, it will be a failure. Don't forget this if they try to spin it any other way. Dame's prime is ticking away, if you don't go big, you will go home empty handed.

Kelly will appeal the decision.
My parents moved for the first time in 30 years. They kept some of my old stuff so I could be nostalgic before they got rid of it. Here is part of my old hat collection!
