I grew up in Portland in the 70's when the Blazers were the only game in town and they won their one and only championship, so they have always had a soft spot in my heart.Darrell Michaelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05474956372325309461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-408858764761620479.post-17421121621752976452009-11-20T20:16:32.202-07:002009-11-20T20:16:32.202-07:00I haven't been able to watch more than 10 minu...I haven't been able to watch more than 10 minutes of an NBA game for about the last ten years. I used to love it, I could watch any game and be into it. Now, for the most part, it just seems to suck. <br /><br />I still love college ball though...lifelong resident of Indiana (high school and college basketball really is insane around here), and got both of my degrees from IU, so I can't imagine I'll ever be able to leave it alone. I think Jordan is what ruined the NBA for me.<br /><br />Boy, that was just an open stream of gibberish, wasn't it.Hossnoreply@blogger.com
