    Its hilarious to see that theres a pro Stotts crowd. Probably the most obvious coach firing in yrs

    Stotts was ok, not great by any means, but Olshit is the real issue

    Actually no. I know it's not a secret that I dislike Marang because of the way that he carries himself and acts towards others, but I don't root for his or his show's failure. I'll even tell people that if they don't like our Postgame Show, they can go watch Blazers Outsiders and they may like it more.

    If their show gets cancelled, then it's probably going to result in Marang trying to copy what I've done on YouTube and with both of us competing against each other on that platform (the homegrown channel vs. the corporate guy) and I don't think that's a good thing for either of us.

    I'm just glad that we can move past the Stotts debates that have defined so much of the conversation for years. I'll still hold my comrades in high regard for years to come.

    He was talking about a rumor BigGameDame posted years ago saying that Lillard drinks like a fish.

    Will Root write as many articles on their site as NBC NW does?
