A few words on a few things: Matt Calkins, Moda renovation negotiations and Channing Frye
And an initial thought on the Trail Blazers’ on-court opportunity this season
So many thoughts and so little time…. my “few words” on a few things:
Tommy John was more than that surgery -- as a Portland Beaver he could pitch -- and hit, too
John, who won 288 MLB games, was part of one of the greatest Bevo teams of all time
Tommy John, another one of those players who should have been enshrined is baseball’s Hall of Fame years ago (but never was) died Sunday.
I've never seen the Trail Blazers portrayed in a more negative light -- but let's change things
Why not give the team's fans something to feel good about?
I’ve been around the Trail Blazers on a regular basis for a long time. Suffice it to say I covered Sam Bowie in his rookie season.
Get ready for the main event: Tom Dundon vs. the City Council -- and let the mudslinging begin
The Moda term sheet should be done today and then the real punches will be thrown
And now, my friends, it’s time for the main event.
And today a few words -- wish I had more -- about innovative NBA coach Don Nelson (RIP)
His 'Small Ball' was a major change in the way the pro game is now played
I never covered Don Nelson on a regular basis. But I wish I would have had that pleasure.
