Sports The Return of Mighty Mouse

The Trail Blazers, who are playing fantastic basketball as of late, are at home tonight, taking on the Memphis Grizzlies. Tonight’s game just might be the final Rose Garden appearance of Damon Stoudamire, who wore the Red & Black for eight seasons.

You might remember him as the guy always getting busted for weed.

Known as “Mighty Mouse” for his small stature and an unfortunate tattoo sporting that nickname on his arm, Stoudamire is struggling for playing time on a Grizzlies team that has the NBA’s second worst record, and he might not be back next year.

Damon, you are welcome to return to Portland once you retire. I’m sure after all those years of Memphis schwag you miss our sweet Oregon chronic. Come home, Mighty Mouse.
