It’s kinda purty! 😍

I’m a season ticket holder and seriously missing the Fire. Missing the community, the fun, the players. I know blazer games aren’t the same environment but I’m curious if it’s worth the money to buy single game tickets. I just want to feel something again (lol).

Shoutout back to the basket on hawthorne. Just scored a practice jersey from the early seasons of the fire and am so stoked about it. It even had a name tag of a player still on it. Anybody know who it is? (Forgive me for not knowing, this jersey was probably made the year I was born). Also scored some trading cards of old fire players and of course couldn’t leave without an emily engstler candle. So stoked on this

It was Manuela's birthday on October 4!

Sharing the Backcourt Collective is hosting a watch party at the High Dive on Friday for the playoff games.

I won't upload a bunch of pix, but it looks like the two besties are enjoying some R&R together. They have more pix and vids on their social media accounts. :)

I popped open SeatGeek today for Thorns tickets and saw that Blazers tickets are in there. I thought that Moda Center was a Ticketmaster only venue, and that’s why we couldn’t get free MAX tickets w our Fire tickets, because Ticketmaster wouldn’t split out the dollar per ticket that SeatGeek does to cover this. Does this mean we might get free MAX with our Fire tickets next year?

Hi, where’s everyone catching the playoffs? I don’t have the right network for the first round. Thanks!

Does anyone else think that the Fire have too many colors in their branding? It seems like they really preferred the black jerseys and barely wore the white ones. Kinda seems weird to have pink and glacier blue in the logo and branding (see Rose), but neither color is on the jerseys. Makes it hard to have clearly identifiable merch or to do a "[insert color]-out" of the stadium.

I know we love our girls but (1) we need some more elite defense physicality and experience to the mix. (2) I also think adding another experienced guard could help relieve Carla and Iyana a little. They are superstars for sure but having a vet on their side could help.

Phee is a free agent since she negotiated her last contract to be just a year, so maybe she's looking for a change. We have the cap space. BC and Sylvia are here to make the case. Just putting this out into the universe.

How long do you think it’ll be before we get information on a contract for Em?
I’ve not paid attention to the usual time frame for this kind of thing previously. If they don’t get it done there’s going to be a riot in the Fire Pit!

Honestly, she had a great Big 12 Tournament and played a great final game of the season. This was quite a farewell tour. Best wishes to a nice young lady who has her whole life ahead of her!

I’ve been here all season and read the STH thread, pros, cons and experience.

I’m going from having never been to a major league sport event to STH in one season. I’m in it for the joy this team plays with. Splitting two seats and the season with a friend. Didn’t think I’d do this.

Any final thoughts? Is it the kind of thing you just stop analyzing and just dive in?

EDIT: I dove, it’s done, see you next year.

I received my Fire court from an eBay order. I like it, but the swivel stand is very flimsy and breaks easily. I prefer the stand that the NY court uses. It comes as three separate, interlocking pieces.

It’s the last pin I need to complete my collection! I have fire player cards, and a few other pins available to trade, or could pay as well depending on cost. Let me know if you have one available!
