Today’s game watching site is Kenton Station. My old neighborhood from 2011-2015, yet I never caught a game here. Vibes are high - but maybe just cause Happy Hour was from 3-6? 🤔 Let’s go #ripcity! (Please?!? I need some joy)

Happy to see the official NBA playoffs ad spot includes the bad shot/Dame wave. Blazers erasure has been real

Kris Murray should be called Air Bud. He’s a golden retriever

Seven years ago to the day!!? This was a pilgrimage we took for @tcbbiggs.bsky.social ‘s birthday. Uncanny. The @trailblazers.bsky.social did NOT perform well that night, so perhaps this is our revenge game? #ripcity

They just showed Blazers’ record incorrectly on the broadcast as 36-37 😬

Is Billy Donovan wearing a loose leather belt over his loop-less “casual coach pants”? UGH. Just another reason we need to bring back the suits!!!

MAGA hat wearing dude just sat next to me at the brewery bar. He’s watching the Blazer game too, and I’d love to remind him about how many of our players are not only immigrants but also delightful.

With all these NBA eye pokes (or alleged eye pokes), maybe some sort of glasses or goggle would make sense as part of uniforms?! Just spitballing here

To the tune of that song I hate “Where Have All the Cowboys Gone?”, I present “Where Have All the Headbands Gone?”. Sing it #ripcity

Can’t recommend enough! So amazing to have a crew at every game, and the ability to swap and exchange tickets with each other. 10/10

With season ticket holder renewal season upon us now is a great time to ask yourself “would I want to move sections and sit with the Third Bench next season?” If the answer is YES (or even MAYBE) let us know you are interested by replying here or sending us a DM. Same applies for any questions!

Dying on this hill. @trailblazers.bsky.social need to spell Krejčí correctly, especially on the Jumbotron. Accented letters matter in languages other than English, y’all.

Meredith F. Wales @meredithfwales.bsky.social · 10/02/2026

Hey #ripcity I collect the songs played whenever players make baskets. Krejčí had a song play today…but it wasn’t clear in the arena. Anyone get it?

SOMEONE PLEASE @trailblazers.bsky.social TELL CALABRO THAT ITS THE CZECH REPUBLIC!!! Or Czechia if you feel millennial. It’s happened 3x already during this game. Vít wasn’t even born yet when Czechoslovakia fell officially in 1992 when the republics officially reformed after their split in 1989

The @draftkingspick6.bsky.social promo during @nbaonnbc.bsky.social is especially trashy and inappropriate given the @trailblazers.bsky.social situation this year - and the pallor and doubt it cast on the league in general

I live by Victor23, a DB Cooper themed brewery, and their “DB Hooper IPA” is BACK this week. Got a sneak peek can tonight 🤫 Pouring one out (in my mouth) to celebrate Dalano Banton. Feels like a confluence of maybe my whole personality, haha: Blazers, beer, niche conspiracy theories. Feeling seen.

Taken just a few minutes ago outside the ICE facility in Portland that Trump claims is under siege. My message to Donald Trump is this: we don’t need you here. Stay the hell out of our city.

Anyone else having issues accessing the game via BlazerVision? Annoyed.

Every time a finals announcer says “TJ McConnell!” I have to do an auditory double take. My core, even after all these years, is trained to hear CJ McCollum #ripcity

My shrine has been disassembled for almost a year, but it was pretty hefty. Part jokey, part absolutely dead serious…I loved my little altar.

Aris got me a special bottle for Christmas, but instead of drinking it with brunch that day (per family tradition), I said I wanted to save it for a special day. Without getting into it too soon, that time is now.

Okay, it’s trite, but did Shaedon aggressively wax his eyebrows?! They looked so thin and maintained on camera a moment ago. I got a full body shiver (BAD)

I used to scream “Fake fans!!” at these fools. But at some point, (maybe 6-8 seasons back? )there became so many that I couldn’t keep up and was bothering everyone else around me too much, haha.

If you've been to a home game recently you've likely noticed that it is season ticket renewal and deposit season. If you are considering renewing your existing season tickets or are interested in becoming a new season ticket holder... you should join us on the Third Bench!

The next Teachers in Transition event is Wed 4/9 6-8pm at Hi-Top Tavern in PDX. We'll be in the cushy back room. This no-host free event is open to anyone considering leaving profession, on the job hunt, or who can share their own successful career shift. Please share!

While I haven’t landed a job yet, officially, I did make a sweet little “Jobseeking Playlist” that I’m proud of, so that has to count for something?! 🤷‍♀️

Teachers get a lot of Starbucks gift cards throughout their career. I don’t drink coffee but could use the meals. When I left the job this summer I consolidated all my cards into 1: $290-ish! Just tried to use my credits at the airport and my account has been inexplicably closed. Fun.

Tomorrow is the next Teachers In Transition, a networking event for educators past and present navigating a career shift. It's free, casual, and a great way to put yourself out there. Join me tomorrow 6-8pm at Steeplejack in NE Portland. And check out my haircut evolution from my years in ed! 😬
