    These are getting old. He seems to be putting himself as the focal point in these articles.

    It's his blog and his own take of things. Just the same as MB's blog and when he goes off on stories on the road with the players.
    I think we're fortunate to have the coverage that we've got on this team.

    I see what you are saying, but it has to be hard for Quick to stay detached and 'out of frame' when he's been covering the team for so long. At the very least I enjoy these peaks through the blinds (so to speak); they definitely add something that I think we're very lucky to have as fans of a particular team.

    I've been a pretty big critic of Quick in the past, but I think this series is extremely entertaining. I don't mind him writing himself into the story.

    It is cool that we are getting the "inside" scoop, don't get me wrong. He just needs to leave himself out of the stories.

    I enjoy it too. No harm done as long as it is true to life.

    Why? As long as it is true and it is properly presented as his take on things - no harm done.

    HAHA! I told you guys that I was going to be negative about anything he does from now on. Nice catch Max! I told you he apologized right?

    Heh, bottom line? I'm jealous. I'd love to pound one or three with Barrett. He seems like one of those really down-to-earth kinda guys that would be great to shoot a round of golf with, then go down a couple shooters together. :lol:

    I thought this was interesting.

    I'm glad they are adding different plays.

    Actually, many "fans" on sites such as this one decided to berate the team on the night they finally got the Blazers back into the playoffs.

    If one of Roy's cronies reads this board, tell #7 to not even bother checking this out.

    Is the HCP v. Quick drama becoming the soap opera for the media who follows the team?
