    And when the lock-out ends, I'm sure the rest of the league will be willing to postpone the start of the season another month or so, just so the Blazers can get their shite together.

    Of course, your argument makes perfect sense - if Allen has inside info that negotiations are a sham and the owners have already decided to cancel the season.

    They should change the title from "General Manager" to lap dog.

    David Aldridge has something to say about the GM search today. What do you think of Donnie Nelson?

    LOL at Nelson leaving Dallas for our cluster fuck of a front office


    We might be gazing towards Dallas, but we are probably getting the middle finger back at us

    Why do I immediately get an image of a Larry Miller, Bert Kolde and Paul Allen as a group of nerds sitting in a circle talking about girls they would or wouldn't do?

    Well we were able to navigate free agency and sign Wesley without a GM last year so I guess we don't really have to have one. We could just give Chad Buchanan the title....

    Or maybe just give it to Larry Miller for the time being and then a year or two from now maybe they will finally be able to find a candidate willing to take the job. If we gave Chad the title now it would make it hard to bring in a permenate GM without firing/demoting Chad.
