    For some horrible reason, we piss off Roy so much he demands a trade and either holds out or we get scraps in return.
    Do you boycott the Blazers?
    If yes, how?

    I would start out by demanding my season ticket money refunded.

    bandwagon.

    haha j/k. I'd find it very hard to be a blazers fan anymore in all honesty.

    not sure if I would be if they happened to piss him off and I'm as die-hard as anyone.

    It took me awhile to get over the team trading Drexler, and letting Terry and Buck leave...but I eventually forgave them. If the worst happens with Roy, I would probably stop following the team for a time - but I suspect I would someday return.

    I just feel like this is our "once every 15-20 years" type of team and I don't want to wait another 15-20 if we screw this one up

    I guess it would all depend on the circumstances ... but if Roy ends up leaving because management botched his extension and aliented him over money, then yeah, I probably would be pretty sick to my stomach and probably wouldn't be able to bring myself to watch for awhile. It really wouldn't be a boycott so much as it would be incredibly "un-fun" to watch Blazers basketball or any basketball for that matter.

    What if a chunk of frozen pee fell from an airplane and crushed Brandon Roy.

    I honestly think that has a better chance of happening compared to your scenario.

    you gotta see the blazes facebook group, about 70% of the responses to their last post about signing milsap are about re-extending Roy NOW and for management to stop fucking around. gotta love it. hopefully BROY feels the love.

    Well... the franchise would deserve what it would get then -- a return to 10,000 per game, no merchandise selling, a losing team, a financially struggling team and more pissed off fans. I'd never stop rooting for the Blazers, but they won't get my money either.

    This would be a very humiliating and most unfortunate death.

    The organization would not see another dime of my money, and I'd urge others to do the same. But I love the team too much, so a few years later after I calmed down a bit I might resort to watching the games on TV...err...computer, cause they fucked that up too. But yeah, I would be royally pissed off and I'd love to see the empty arena every night.

    But it's not going to happen, so this is all completely hypothetical.

    I wouldn't watch another NBA game again in this lifetime.

    I hear Hockey is pretty exciting.
