    There's not many teams (if any) that had to deal with the type of franchise killing injuries in such a short amount of time as the Blazers. It's been a rough era.

    When we get out of this era and the rebuilding really begins PA should consider changing the team colors. Start from a total clean slate from top to bottom. The RG needs new seats anyways.

    Black/Red/White to Green/Gold/White? Red, white, gold?

    You'd have to change the team name. Build a new stadium. Its easier if we just move the team to Seattle, they become the sonics and then we get the hornets.

    And even then, that's just wrong. crimson and black 4 life.

    I wouldn't go that far.

    Team colors and jersey design are more along the lines I'm thinking of.

    It would be green and brown, to represent mother earth or something stupid like that.

    Well whatever they do, they better get that Gypsy curse they've been afflicted with taken care of.

    Also, it probably wasn't a great idea to build the Rose Garden on top of a Native American burial ground either :wink:

    You would get rid of the Best Thing the Blazers have going for themselves? Might as well change the Team name while your at it.

    Let's change our name to the Portland Trees, and have all Green jerseys and an all green court. We could call the stadium "The Forest", and our mascot would be Douglas McFirTree. We could paint a basketball that looks like a pinecone, and our Blazer dancers could do their dances naked.

    Let's change our name to the Portland Hillbillies, and have wifebeaters as jerseys and a dirt court. We could call the stadium "The Flat Spot", and our mascot would be Jethro Clampett. We could paint a basketball that looks like a big rock, and our Blazer dancers could do their dances while plucking chickens.
