CNN-SI has its list of top 10 ugliest uniforms in college football, and they are close but missed the Oregon triumvirate... with Portland State. I don't know how such a beautiful state could have such nasty jerseys??? here's my top 3...
3. Portland State
2. Oregon
1. Oregon State

Cleveland High Football 2007

Song from Shrek the Third commercial???
The Fratellis - Chelsea Dagger, 4th track from their Costello Music album... you know, the one that goes doo doo doo.... doo doo doo.... doo doo doo... doo doo doo doo doo. Sounds kinda like T-Rex meets the Datsuns meets Franz Ferdinand. Great, and extremely catchy tune!

GO TIMBERS!!! Destroy the Flounders!

Timbers have the week off, to keep you in the mood checkout Fuzzball's version of Green Is The Color. Next game May 5th in Seattle, who will be destroyed!!!

Portland Timbers beat the Puerto Rico Islanders 3-1 in their opening game of the 2007 USL season!!! Sweet!!! and the Timbers Army is still growing!!!

Blazers beat the Wizards 100-98 and Gilby doesn't come close to 50, infact he didn't even come close to 50 in the two games, now sit down and shut up Gilby. Blazers' rookies rule!!!

Been checking out the Portland chocolate scene lately. Most recently we went to Alma on NE 28th between Couch & Davis. Had the Manjari truffle, which was excellent, such good rich chocolate flavor!!! Highly recommended.

Then there's the downtown 4:
Teuscher
Moonstruck
Leonidas
See's

Both times Teuscher was our favorite. The triple chocolate truffle is excellent. Leonidas & Moonstruck split 2nd place on our two trips. Quite liked the Mayan truffle (with almond & cinnamon) at Moonstruck but the mostly straight chocolate truffle the first time left something to be desired. See's comes in last, more like candy (think snickers) than chocolates.

BeatPort! Damnit!

Went to see Clint Eastwood's Flag's of Our Fathers last night at the Academy Theater in SE Portland. First off, that was a tough movie to take and also quite moving. But on a Portland bent, the folks at the Academy have done a wonderful job remodeling the old theater. Very comfortable, new seats, new paint, new carpet. They have pizza (from Flying Pie) and numerous beers on tap as well as wine and hot dogs. Looking forward to seeing Letters From Iwo Jima and returning to the Academy!

Finally got to Ken's Artisan Pizza on NE 28th. First off I'll say that Nostrana can rest easy, it retains its crown as Portland's best pizza. Ken's biggest mistake is his odd decision to put fennel seeds in his sauce, making every pizza taste like it has sausage. Plus you can't really call a pizza a Margherita if it has fennel... there are no fennel seeds in a Margherita pizza... A Margherita is a very specific pizza. Besides that not quite enough sauce, and the dough wasn't cooked enough on the bottom, although the edge was blackened. Anyway, Nostrana's pizza is better across the board!!!
