With apologies for basketball season

Well, there are of course many reasons why one might lapse on posting from time to time, so I'm not going to bother listing any particular one. I most regret not having anything to add to the great stuff the guys at Give Me the Rock have been doing (see the links at right). Let's hope I can keep up next year. Anyway, I got some nice pics from the Blazers-Knicks game, where the Special Lady and I sat five rows behind the basket.

Without time to seriously devote to my basketball team this season, I spent a lot of the year in the bottom of the pack, and when Yao went down, I thought I was sunk. Well, some timely pickups and a Gerald Wallace for LaMarcus Aldridge trade later, I'm the fourth seed. I think I've got a shot to make the second round, but our top seed had a monster season.
