Jack Cassidy says he hears he’ll never have to buy a drink in Portland again, so if anyone’s listening, he prefers a “N/A Heineken” and his wife prefers a red wine. #RCTID

This really sucks. Wasn’t prepared for the end of the Kevin and Lamar duo. They were the best. 😢
Joe Freeman@freemanjoe.bsky.social · 2w agoKevin Calabro tells me has decided to step away from Blazers broadcasting and will no longer call games for Portland. The team and its veteran play-by-play man had been in discussions on a new contract, but he called the offers "subprime" and he has decided to move on.
5-1. First time sounders have ever allowed five goals at lumen.
Harry Kane scored 6 goals for England in the World Cup. After he admitted he went golfing with Donald Trump he did not score again the rest of the tournament, and England are out. The Trump sports curse remains undefeated.
To quote the great PNW poet Ben Gibbard: “He was a bastard in life, thus a bastard in death.”
Wonderful to see this space finally open and activated.
Some late Friday news: Portland's city hearings office has upheld the land use violation issued against the owner of Portland’s ICE building. That means the city can begin issuing fines against the owners. More soon.
Anyone find the promised $6 beers at Providence Park?
the fact that the timbers apparently sold like twenty thousand tickets to watch the next World Cup match in a single afternoon tells me that the people yearn for more big outdoor viewing parties; city's parks department should budget for a ton of public events for future world cups imo
When this is the discourse on r/portland you have really lost the plot.

The owner is pouring tequila into people’s mouths at the watch party I’m at. It was rough but I made it. 🥵🇲🇽
FIFA sucks and Trump sucks but the World Cup is still the best sporting event on the planet.
This is really sad. I always enjoyed my interactions with Zane and appreciated his work. You never know what people are carrying.
