There's a nice photo of Raivio with his Dad on page 16 of the newest Portland Magazine--Winter 2008.

My wife mentioned that.

I think Raivio has been our MVP recently, but, it's a team sport... Basketball

It was very weird to have a stoppage in play, and no noise at all. silent

The canned music they finally cranked on is no replacement for the band! Hear you guys next year! rendeer

Yeah, even Larry said to me before the game that they really needed to crank it up.

Lots of things to keep improving on after this win. I agree it was great to see Ethan back in the court. I was struck by how infrequently we tried to get the ball to Robin. He is a scorer, and I'd like to see more opportunities for him. I felt that after their shots stopped dropping and they fell behind, Howard kind of quit on the defensive end, so not a great test for us.

But any win is a good win! Merry Christmas to all PN members.

Back east!!?? I'm insulted. No matter, your seat wasn't any good.

You are in the Eastern Time Zone. Or maybe that is only half the year...I don't know, daylight savings time? I drove through Indiana last week, it sucks, so therefore it is back east.

I do believe you reside on the other (wrong) side of the Mississippi River, therefore, yes, you are back East. And my seat is honed to perfection from hours of watching Pilots from it. Say, how do I get an upgrade to the lumbar support model? And perhaps fresh cushions? I'm waiting. . .

I'll remember that next time. It was a relief to get the voicemail from Murphy, even if I did go, "why is someone from the 520 calling me?" And as I type this it just started to rain. Or is it freezing rain? Guess I'll check later. I haven't driven since Sunday.

See you the 28th. Merry Christmas to you and all the fans on Pilot Nation. santa
