From early memories of the '95 Seattle Mariners, the late 90s Portland Trail Blazers, and the Akili Smith-led Oregon Ducks football teams, Max Price has had a strong emotional connection to sports in the Northwest. Having played collegiate baseball, and having hosted a campus sports talk radio show, Max has an in-depth knowledge of local sports. Having covered the Trail Blazers for Examiner.com since 2009, in addition to covering Ducks football and Pacific University athletics, Max’s goal is to deliver you an extensive look at the Portland Trail Blazers and their communal impact.
