    Apparently they told certain local media types that Hedo's wife is to blame for his decision to live and play in Toronto. Like he's whipped and she's some evil Dominatrix cursing our little hick town.

    Throwing a man's wife to the jackals is no way to encourage future players that Portland is a nice city to live in, and it's not something most men raised in Portland would approve of. :tsktsk:

    Again, we come up short in the class department.

    I'm not particularly sure how Ric Bucher actually bringing up Hedo's wife first in national columns and tv is the Blazers doing it but okay then.

    It's sad when simply telling the truth becomes a "PR blunder."

    Wow, that's a stretch for even you. Way to hate, though. At leat you are consistent in your ill informed, ill formulated "opinions".

    The Blazers said, nor did, no such thing. It was first reported in the Toronto media, then the national media, that Hedo's wife preferred Toronto. So, if we absolutely must blame someone for "throwing a man's wife to the jackals", let's at least point the finger in the right direction (that would be east).

    Give him time. It requires a court order to exhume/move a body. These things don't happen overnight.

    Honestly, she deserves to be thrown under a bus. The man verbally committed to sign with the Blazers and then reneged. He deserves some heat for that.

    Nonsense. If anyone comes off looking bad in this affair, it's Turgolu.
