    Nothing wrong with it. However, given the choice, I would prefer not to be

    Just pointing out that I have nothing against black people just because I don't want the majority of my kids school to be black people. It's a choice, and like most poeple, I am more comfortable around people I identify with the most

    No, it's our fault for being such a boring city. We drove him to drinking.

    Maybe because he's taking shot at the city? Blaming the organization for his problems? This isn't a thread bashing Oden for his slow recovery or his absence from the team, this is thread about Oden venting his frustrations at the city of Portland and the team that drafted him. He absolutely deserves the animosity he's getting right now.

    I had no idea MM was such a racist.

    People like MM are who Rider was talking about years ago during his rant about the racist people around town and on the outside of Portland. :tsktsk:

    Not at all, but assuming all things are equalish, I would identify with white people more than black, Hispanic, Asian, etc. people. Especially here in the south

    Dude, the fans and the organization gave him so much love before he ever stepped on the court. From the day we won #1.... For his "parting shot" at the town and the team... that's like he turned around as he was walking away and flipping us the bird! That's how I take it, anyway. I won't begrudge you or think you're any less of a fan for your perspective. But that's how I see it - as one big unnecessary parting shot.

    But no worries, Greg. We paid you and loved you the entire way, while you played the equivalent of one season while getting paid for 5!

    So if it was a choice between a whites only trailer park and a nice middle class Asian neighborhood you choose the trailer park?

    On a positive note: This has turned the attention of Blazer fans off of how shitty of a job Buchanan and our scouts have been.

    So you're saying you don't like black fonts?

    I love black fonts. I have lots of black fonts. I just identify more with greens.
