    I think only one person has done that, and he's someone I'm surprised you'd want to emulate.

    The dude just came in a strong 3rd in GM of the year voting. Your freak out on this hiring is clearly not shared by many.

    Why surprised? PapaG is constantly talking about said poster. Pretty sure he has a creepy-stalker hard-on for the dude.

    I hope Olshey, in spite of Paul Allen and his lackeys, can lead this team to a title.

    I'll leave it at that, and I won't hold my breath.

    PA just got played by a player, IMO.

    Sounds like Olshey used some hardcore negotiation tactics for this GM spot . . . let's hope he carries this into his new GM position.

    You should be happy that Allen isn't carrying a grudge against the agent and is putting what is best for the team ahead of any personal grudge he personally has.

    Well consider that whatever Olshey's salary is, it is a drop in the bucket to Allen. So Olshey had an offer from a big city market with two huge all stars and a team on the rise. PA comes in and buys him away from that situation (with the only card Allen really can play, cash) . . . who just got played?

    Clearly you don't read posts, or remember the "LaGarie Sucks" posts from most of the cheerleaders in this thread right now. I thought it was ridiculous that LaGarie clients were blackballed from the Blazers. Maybe I'll pull up those threads and bust some of the usual clowns.

    True sarcasm doesn't need green font.

    Do more drugs.
