    Seriously. I've been on Blazer message boards since rec.sports.basketball.pro, then ESPN, then BBB, and now here. And I can honestly say that the level of reactionary paranoia and inane bitching has never been as high and as grating as it is now. Maybe it's the evolution of the sports fan on the internet, who thinks more and more that his/her opinion matters, that someone is listening, and that spewing the split-second emotional gut blast is somehow therepudic and benificial to not only themselves but to the team they are rooting for.

    I'm done, at least for a good long while. I'm going to enjoy watching the Blazers play. I'm going to revert to an earlier, simpler time when every nuance, every play, every alledged plot against someone's favorite player, or suspected vendetta by the refs against... anyone, isn't argued and argued and argued about, since it matters about as much as that piss I took ten minutes ago.

    Mods, feel free to suspend or delete my account. I'll check back in a few days, so if you don't think you can do that without my specific instruction, PM me for verification.

    Farewell, blowhards.

    I didn't feel like Chris_In_PDX really had the hydraulic pressure I was hoping for during that piss ten minutes ago. I feel like if KP hadn't thrown Chris' penis under the bus and brought him in some help, we could have had the explosive, high pressure pee we were hoping for. Frankly, his kidney's are a bust and I just don't think his Uric acid content is going to cut it and...oh, right you meant it WASN'T relevant. My mistake.

    i have to wonder chris...

    how you could possibly enjoy watching the blazers get their ass kicked by golden state while showing they have no chemistry and are over rated...

    hmmm..

    So you made a thread to bitch about other people bitching. Way to go.

    Why would they do this? Have you somehow violated the rules? Can't you just not come to the site anymore? Anytime I see someone request this on a message board, all I see is Drama Queen.

    If you were really just fed up, you could've just left quietly. Instead you're trying to stir up crap with this post. You'll be back.

    Because he wants to have more of a reason to go in another board and say how we are assholes that banned him from posting, because we like to bitch and he called us out on it. :duh:

    Why? Because he refuses to suffer through an unending plethora of negative postings about the Blazers. You call yourself a Blazer homer yet you're one of the first to throw Nate or Blakey or any one of a number of them under the bus.

    There's always been a division here and at BBF, but usually right down one line. Usually it was all pro one player or another at the same position. Now it's become a pissing match to see who can put up the most negative posts about the player they don't like (or the coach they don't like). Go through some time, objectively, and look at all of the posts from a couple of particular people. Do your own +/- scoring and see what you come out with. I think you'll be somewhat surprised. Maybe not. Maybe you relish in gang-bang criticizing people out of existence.

    I am a Blazer Homer 100%. But I am also a realist. And for someone to come in a "public board" with people with every right to bitch at the coach, players, management or other opinions is what a "public forum" is all about. And to say that the mods should ban him is throwing the biggest tantrum I've seen since Jetrage had when we traded Zblow.

    It's uncalled for and basically silly. We are in a public forum discussing Blazers. Good or Bad. I can bitch about Nate all day long, especially when I see Oden only getting 5-7 shots a game shooting 60% from the field.

    I don't think there's a Blazer board out there where bitching isn't going on. O-Live, RealGM, BEdge.. I see the same amount of negative posts over there as here.

    chris left because he didnt like the content of the site. its his right. if i want to poke fun at it thats my right. i sent him a pm before i even posted that asking him to come back soon and i hate to see a poster leave, etc. and i meant it.

    if i ever make a " im leaving here" thread, i would expect a couple kicks in the nuts.

    Cute but IMO mods should show a little more leadership instead of leading the charge to insult him. How about "Sorry you feel that way, we appreciate your posting and visiting this site but maybe you should take a little break. Hope to see you back soon." instead of calling him a quitter.

    For a dying board, it certainly seems to have a lot of activity today.
