The Portland Trailblazers NBA team begins preseason play tonight against Sacramento. I have to listen to them. That's right, the first preseason game is not televised. Instead, I have to listen to them on the radio. And in the starting lineup is Greg Oden. Now I think this is a bad move here. I think the Blazers should not let Greg play until the regular season starts 3 weeks later. Why? He might injure himself during the preseason and then poof! No Greg for nobody knows how long. Also, it will be interesting to see how the Oklahoma City Thunder does in its first year there after moving from Seattle. I'll have to wait until tomorrow night to see the "new" Blazers when the second game of the preseason gets televised. Well, best of luck to them, and I'll be listening at 7pm on KYKN 1430 AM (free KYKN plug.)
