Speaking of great advertisements, you’ll notice that all of the post-game recaps written for Trail Blazers.com are now sponsored by Bud Light. I, for one, was super excited about this, because there’s nothing quite like cracking an ice-cold Budweiser and blogging a basketball game…

But then I realized that this wasn’t as cool as I initially thought.

First of all, were not allowed to drink on the job, even if we’re sponsored by Budweiser. This is probably for the best, however, because I can’t imagine what we’d talk about if I had a few drinks in me. Well, actually, I can imagine but none of it is basketball related and I’d probably end up getting dumped before the final buzzer.

That, however, is neither here nor there.

The worst part is that Budweiser doesn’t give the writers (namely – ME) any discounts on their product. This is unfortunate for obvious reasons, but I’m working on coming up with a valid argument that changes this. Maybe if my loyal readership banded together and went on strike until they finally broke down?

I’ll keep you posted on how it all turns out.
