Homegrown Blazers... 

Post#1 » by SabasRevenge! » Wed Jan 9, 2008 10:21 pm

Fitting that in (likely) the homegrown capital of the US :wink: , so many of our key guys have never played for another team:

Oden
Aldridge
Jack
Outlaw
Roy
Webster
Rodriguez

+ add Rudy to the mix next year

Jones and Pryz have seen their careers finally blossom in Portland and Blake's family just moved here. Channing loves it here and seems to be carving out a nice niche for himself on this team.

This finally seems like 100% our team, Portland's team, good people to represent right.

I owe Paul Allen a big thank you... finally.

I don't understand your first sentence, since in my corner of the Internet, "homegrown" refers to amateur pornography. Is this a marajuana reference?

Yeah, it is kind of nice that our team is comprised mainly of our own draft picks.

Humboldt and southern Oregon certainly have Portland beat in sheer quantity, but they come nowhere near the number of closet/attic/basement indoor gardens here. Just sayin'
