    Why would you bother following Canzano?

    And no, I doubt he's been hacked. He's just pissed he didn't get to break the story.

    How does Roy "hold all the cards"?

    Can someone explain that to me?

    Canzano is all about piling on POR mgmt right now. He wants people to believe that this is all POR mgmt either manipulating events or ineptitude....

    I think more likely scenario is the Roymet with Blazer mgmt told him of his desire to play and that he felt good, and then had a meeting on thrusday with doctors and given a cold harsh reality of the situation with his knees, and after that he decided to retire...

    I think it is likely this caught POR mgmt completely offguard....which means that Canzano trying to claim ineptitude has some merit IMO, but conspiracy? I am not so convinced....

    and yeah, having a GM might have helped.....

    Furthermore, this makes Nate's comments about him as a starter concerning IMO....

    What Nate, you were just going to insert him in the starting lineup defacto instead of seeing how he was? Doesn't reflect well on Nate at all....

    MAGS - (the bet)

    I gave you an out any time prior to the start of the season. So your bet with me can be nixed. As far as your other bets, that's something you need to figure out.


    My head is spinning it all the implications of this news. Best of luck to Roy and his family, and I hope to see him often either on broadcast or coaching staff.

    You have to take Luck. Indy can hold on to both QB's for the first few months and make sure Peyton is healthy and see if they have any sort of chance at superbowls with him in the next few seasons. Luck is not going to lose any trade value during the first few months of his career.

    Joe Montana was traded, so there is precedence. While painful at first, if you have a top10 QB like the Steve Young you can't pass that up if the goal of your franchise is competing for super bowls.

    My favorite Brandon Roy moment was a regular season game against Houston a couple years back when Houston scored to take the lead with only about one second left. The game seemed to be lost. Brandon got the inbound deep in three point territory and somehow got the shot off to win the game. The Rose Garden just erupted.

    What a quality guy, quality player. With all the idiots who make so many bad decisions off the court, who play selfishly, sloppily and lazily on the court, it's absolutely wrong that this should happen to Roy.

    FWIW, Canzano isn't making fun of Roy, he's messing with the front-office.

    Ok, given that I can not abide the asshat, I will try to be kind and ask, to what purpose does he "mess with the front office", perhaps only to stir the pot for rateings ? Say it aint so, Joe...

    FKn guy has no class..there are so many stories that a true writer could put to pen, but this pantywaste pos trickels down to the lowest point, and then takes a dive.

    Very hamhandedly.

    It is still low and classless.

    Like making snarky jokes about the management of the funeral home - during your best friend's funeral.

    Nobody wants to hear your bullshit whining right now. Emote grief, sorrow or celebrate what was great about the departed. Or shut the hell up.
