    it's simple torey….I have no issues with you or hoops but apparently, you guys think I do....I've pm'd with hoops to discuss it but there was no dialogue returned....can't say I didn't try ...that said, just as I was enjoying your show, it's leaving a real bad taste in my mouth now....chasing listeners away is poor podcast management..something you might want to avoid ..I'll avoid it entirely now and let you buddy up with your "group" Comprehension is easy if respect is part of it

    Some take this stuff waaaaay too serious.

    What in the world does my podcast have to do with anything? It's a bit annoying when you bring that into unrelated conversations. I've known of you long before the podcast. I know you as "Riverman", not a podcast listener.

    Why does Cup's post have anything to do with my posts?...…..lumping into groups....walk the walk....I'm done with this. If you put a podcast on a public forum, expect it to be referenced..that means I listened to it. Last podcast you lumped a lot of fans into a group that pissed you off....expect you might get a response. I sure got one for my post here. When you asked if I honestly thought you were a Stotts detractor I gave an honest answer.....that led to this for some reason. Tanking....losing.....coaching changes.....these are not unrelated topics. I don't complain when you reference your podcast in threads ...go for it...I enjoyed a lot of that podcast as I've said but disagree with a couple points....didn't give you guys grief over having a different opinion from mine....public forums require thick skin

    Anyone who supports tanking, especially less than 20 games into the season has a loser mentality and I wouldn't consider them a fan of the team. I'd love to see any of you tankers say it to Lillard.

    Does Lillard know that you threaten people that he'll beat them up?

    No prob. Tell him, I can handle that little shrimp.

    Now that I'm going to fight Lillard, does anyone want to make any bets first?

    and where did I threaten to have Lillard "beat them up". I also have no doubt that face to face, you'd be the shrimp. Talk is cheap. :biglaugh:

    Did he tell you to say that? Figures, using you instead of dealing with me directly.

    Despite his shortcomings (like every other frickin’ coach in the league) I think Stotts is a very good coach, especially for this team and this town. He is leap years ahead of Nate “Iso” McMillan. I also would love to see CJ traded but realize that that is probably not going to happen in this lifetime. I think Skal is a decent bench player who appears to be absolutely clueless on defense. And so on and so forth. Just my opinions and fuck y’all if you don’t necessarily agree. No need for anyone to get pissy about it. I love the Blazers and local life is better with them in it (regardless of record) than without them in it. Ironically, even if the team was undefeated to this point, members of this board would find something (or someone) to pick apart. Welcome to the S2 community........And I love @Strenuus despite that fact that he’s totally wrong about Stotts. and no Stren, I DON’T want a reach around......just know that I love you and be satisfied with that.

    If they hadn't beat up on the hornless Bulls, they would be right in line for a really good Lottery pick. Winning these games against the sisters-of-the-poor is keeping them from getting and asset and putting them right on the path to that fringe area where they either get a crappy Lottery pick, or are cannon fodder.
