Welcome to The Traffic Report -- a Portland Trail Blazers podcast. OK, so maybe we haven't talked much about one -- we're looking at you, Netflix -- of Portland's professional sports teams, but seeing as Portland is playing in the NBA Playoffs on Sunday, we figured now is the time to jump on the bandwagon. Tyson and Justin talk about what it means for the city, Oregon spring ball and review Justin's trip to Bandon. Then, Erik Anderson joins to break down the Blazers' series.

Tyson and Justin reflect on the Super Bowl, Oregon's 10-game losing streak, baseball bloopers and take a first-hand look at the Portland Timbers' new kit.
It's a good thing, folks. Because while 99 percent of the following podcast was recorded an hour before Moore announced his return to Oregon for 2026, well, we figure the news of Moore's return outweighs an instantly dated episode that wraps up Oregon's 2025 season. I speak briefly on Moore at the top, then it's on to putting a bow on the 2025 Oregon Ducks season.
In this week's Traffic Report, Tyson is back from Miami to debrief Justin on the Orange Bowl before the two dive into this week's Peach Bowl, the rematch with Indiana and where this 2025 Oregon Ducks season now stands in the UO pantheon of time.

Yes, there is plenty of 2025 football to talk about on this week's Traffic Report. Tyson and Justin share their thoughts on the bracket, on James Madison and the first home playoff game in Autzen Stadium history. But really, we're all here for the 2007 Sun Bowl Replayables, right?
We missed a week and boy do we have a lot to catch up on.

Got tied up today.)
This week's I-5 Corridor Traffic Report begins with the heartbreak of the Mariners' Game 7 loss to Toronto in the ALCS. It ends with talk of the Grateful Dead, Tie-dye and whether or not we just don't get it. And in the middle, the two dissect Oregon's 56-10 beating of Rutgers.
The Oregon Ducks are undefeated no more. After a disappointing loss to Indiana last week, Tyson and Justin take a look at the challenging road ahead for a team that still has everything to play for. Plus: Tyson's review of Game 3 of the ALCS and the two talk about a wildcard of an Oregon State coaching candidate.

The game is coming back. The Oregonian reported earlier this week that Oregon and Oregon State have struck an agreement to resume their annual rivalry game beginning in 2027 — meaning we'll only have a one-year hiatus after Saturday's 129th meeting between the two programs. But on this week's I-5 Corridor Traffic Report, Tyson Alger and Justin Myers wonder just how much of a rivalry will be left to resume.

Tyson and Justin get together on this week's Traffic Report to talk about Oregon's 2-0 start, preview the Northwestern game and wonder just how good this Oregon team could be.For more, listen to this podcast in the player above or find us over on Apple or Spotify.We're also on YouTube.Looking for more Oregon Ducks coverage?

Ladies and Gentlemen, we've made it.Eight long months have passed since the Oregon Ducks' football season came to an end in Pasadena. In the time since we've seen portal additions, headlining returns, position battles and a new mantra from a team that spent half of 2024 ranked No. 1: Double Down.

All season, the Portland Timbers' fan base has been desperate for the front office to make a move to bolster the team's run to the postseason. All season, the Seattle Mariners' fan base has been desperate for the front office to make a move to bolster the team's run to the postseason. Well, the Mariners didn't just make one move, they made two. Same with the Portland Timbers. And now, Tyson and Justin are feeling a bit like the dogs who finally caught the car. What do we do now? We try to figure that out on this week's Traffic Report, then dive into the further NFL-ification of college football.

Welcome back to The I-5 Corridor's Traffic Report.

It's the Fourth, but allow us to take you back to Halloween of 2009 on today's episode of The I-5 Corridor Traffic Report's Replayables. It's a Saturday night. After a dismal start to the Chip Kelly era in Boise, the Ducks have rattled off six straight wins to climb to No. 10 in the nation with No. 4 USC and its seven consecutive Pac-10 titles in town. It's not the strongest team of the Pete Carrol era, but it's still USC talent and the Trojans feature the No. 1 overall recruit in the country, Matt Barkley, at quarterback. An early-season shocker to Washington gave the Trojans a limp, but they've won four in a row coming into Eugene and might just be a win against these upstart Ducks away from reestablishing the status quo and rejoining the title hunt. Sure, the Ducks are averaging 38 points per game during their win streak, but there's no way that fast-paced, gimmicky offense they're running can hold up against the athletes the Trojans are bringing to town. Right? Tyson and Justin look back on today's episode, plus thoughts on Oregon's bounce-back week on the recruiting trail.

We're still a little more than two months away from the start of the 2025 college football season, but we've hit the part of the offseason where folks are feeling a bit celebratory. For Oregon, that means it's Hall of Fame season. Nationally, former Oregon running back Jonathan Stewart has been selected to be on the 2025 National Football Foundation College Football Hall of Fame ballot. Locally, Oregon has released its own list of honorees, with Marcus Mariota and Hroniss Grasu leading the class of athletes to be inducted into the Oregon Hall of Fame this fall. And while in this week's episode of The I-5 Corridor's Traffic Report, Tyson wants to focus in on which players from the last 10 years have a shot to be enshrined as an Oregon immortal, Justin wanted to focus on a coach. Mark Helfrich, to be specific. Oh yeah, it's a take. And you'll have to listen to the episode to find out just how well it's supported. Plus: Oregon vs. the Heat Wave, the Beavers are heading to Omaha and the concern level for Oregon's WRs post-Evan Stewart injury.

The beauty of baseball and softball is that, when you're good, you get to enjoy it for quite a while. The Oregon baseball team played 58 regular-season games. The Oregon softball team played 64 games. The folly of those two sports is that one can be that good, for that many games, and still watch it end in the blink of an eye. For the Ducks baseball team, it was two-and-out at the Eugene Regional. For the softball team, which reached the Women's College World Series for the first time in seven years, the Ducks lasted three games in Oklahoma before coming home. On this week's Traffic Report, Tyson and Justin put the two programs' seasons into context, marvel at the year Cal Raleigh is having for the Mariners and share a surprising change of opinion on one of Oregon's most famous tourist traps.

Richard Wesley will not be an Oregon Duck. But don't expect his commitment video to disappear anytime soon. You may remember Wesley as the 5-star EDGE player who signaled his commitment to Oregon earlier this month by jumping into a pool with a shirtless Dan Lanning. As it turns out, Lanning taking the shirt off his back doesn't mean anything in today's college football world, as Wesley decommitted from the Ducks earlier this week. Are the Ducks left in the wake of a cannonball gone wrong? Tyson and Justin discuss this, along with postseason baseball and softball, on today's episode of The I-5 Corridor's Traffic Report.

On this week's episode of The I-5 Corridor's Traffic Report, I needed a little help from Justin Myers. See, it's 2025, which means there's a lot of “Best 25 [insert noun] of the first 25 years of the century” lists going around. Notably, over at The Athletic they've put together lists of the top 25 coaches, players and college football teams of the 2000s. They have Chip Kelly at No. 24. They have Marcus Mariota at No. 15. And, well, I wanted to go a little deeper. So in the spirit of ‘25, I'm putting together The I-5 Corridor's list of the best 25 Oregon football players since 2000. While the list will come out next week, I needed Justin's help to figure out where to start.

In this week's Traffic Report, Tyson and Justin dive into what this means for the franchise and the city.
