    I know he's ok and it's a more general comment than on him in particular.
    Also @RR7 I realize I responded to you by saying a non-bias doesn't exist and than basically I said it did in the same sentence. So I want to re-explain what I meant.
    The bias to me is that most of these guys cheer for other teams or regions, and so while they don't care about the Blazers, Ducks, beavers, pilots, timbers, etc. It's in the best interest of their actual fandoms to make someone else better. So there non-bias in terms of if the local teams are good or not, is usually driven by wanting their own teams to be good.

    I wasn't going to say his name but I listen to his podcast regulary and he dropped that bomb on air this season...really shocked me...talk about Florida football and he lights up...I always thought he was the best writer of that crowd....like I said...would have never guessed. I'd have a hard time covering a sport I didn't like myself

    I mean, Freeman is much better than Quick or Canzano, so he has that going for him.

    It's like saying Bono can sing better than Roseanne Barr and William Hung

    I have never listened to his podcast, but don’t say he is a fan of Florida, he’d go nuts. He’s all about Florida State!

    The national media doesn't want Dame in Portland. It's become obvious. Example: Stephen A Smith says some false crap (and we know it's a lie) about Dame possibly being traded to fucking New York or Los Angeles. It's obvious his has no legs, but it's no surprise that the two biggest markets are listed. It's obvious as hell.

    Only if Lonzo willingly comes to Portland, no baggage

    The Baggage is he’s not that good and will probably never be close to as good as Dame is right now...

    He's a great talent and probably a better fit to our team than Dame because he's pass first and would mesh better with CJ and run the offense better

    You know, a lot of the media people are right about one thing: the league isn't the same when the lakers suck. The league is BETTER when they suck (IMO). God forbid LeBron does the almighty and win a title with them. We'd NEVER hear the end of it..
