This isn't baseball, but maybe of interest

Oh Rooobbb,

Good luck.....! Keep us posted on the progress.

Happy Easter!

Rob,

Would like to talk with you.

Please email me at havecash@aol.com

Thanks.

Rob K,

Glad to read your a republican. Portland is lucky to have you Rob. Keep up the great work with our education system too, sir. peace,RS

hey if you get it, you owe us free tickets. I wish haha. good luck. porter was a good player.

Beenthere:
I tried emailing you at havecash@aol.com and it bounced back with an error message: "Not that much cash at this email address."

The effort is going very well. We had tremendous media all day today on TV. Paul Allen said to the media that he looks forward to working with us.

Still an uphill climb but making progress.

Rob....Have had some experience with an NFL franchise and an MLB franchise funding.

Think it might be worth a phone call.

Kindly send me an email at havecash@aol.com; or, leave your telephone number for me at: 815-469-4520.

I'll be gone a good part of the morning tomorrow (Monday) but will be available in the afternoon.

Rob:

You're right about the Trailblazers...I was once a big fan, but their behavior over the last decade or so has made it very easy to willingly forget about them.

Agree with you about Porter...now for the way back machine...Dave Twardzik or Lionel Hollins...any help from these two fine gents?

No, we haven't reached out yet. But I've spoken with several other ex-Blazers who are very excited about geing involved.

At this point, locking down the equity investors is what we are focused on. Meetings tomorrow and Wednesday with prospects.

Of course we also are feeding the media beast. It is very hungry.

Sounds exciting Rob...Portland deserves a good team...the fans have shown in the past that they will support a good team...support them very well!

Keep us posted Rob.

Rob,

Good luck. PM to you.

I figure this is the best way to provide an update

Thanks for the update.

Rob:

That's exciting and heady stuff...I sure hope it all works out for your group, the Trail Blazers, and their loyal, rabid fans.


The article mentions that you're a charter school advocate...do the students get bussed to these charter schools?..I wondered where all of those charter busses were going.

Rob:

Very exciting stuff... best of luck...

Update...

This news was on the front page of the Oregonian today.

It's a pretty big milestone in our effort.

Rob,

Would love to help you turn that franchise into a big winner...

I've got a deadly jumper (more of a set shot) from the top of the key! All you gotta do is get me open and I'll rattle it in!

Will need a defensive replacement at times (at all times). And make sure your insurance is paid because that "deadly" jumper could turn out to be real "deadly" after about twice up and down the floor.

Just let me know and I'll sign for a fraction of that normal NBA salary. I've always dreamed of being an NBA player, hope you give me that chance. You WILL be sorry I assure you!

Let me know so I can start getting into shape.

Good luck

Jerry:
Consider it done ..... as soon as we get the NBA to adopt the "designated shooter" rule so we can platoon you and get a defensive player in your spot!

I'll call David Stern right now.

Rob,

Thanks, that is exciting news. I'll be waiting right next to the phone. I can dribble too! If I'm on the team could you change the name from Trail Blazers to Hawkeyes?

Rob,

Must be very exciting. Heck, I'm excited for you and I don't even know you!

Looking for a 5'10, 220 lb center with the best box out you will ever see under 6 feet?

Rob,

So what do you think about all the moves the Trailblazers made during draft day?
