    Simple. Who fills their GM spot first.

    Orlando, without a GM for 1 hour

    Portland, without a GM for 1 year

    I could care less who fills the spot first. I care about us getting the best guy for our unique GM job.

    1 year. That is an embarrassment, and an insult to Blazer fans when they say these things take time

    Honestly, what is so "unique" about the Portland gig? Aside from a meddlesome, bumbling owner ...

    This whole "process" has been embarrassing and the Blazer organization truly did look second-rate.

    The quicker P.A. wises up and fires Larry Miller and Chad Buchanan the quicker this organization can recover from the mess they put 'em in.

    Exactly that. A meddlesome owner who happens to have more money than every other owner except one. The possiblities are endless . . . on many differnet levels.

    If you can get along with Blazers power people, it could be a dream GM job. Big if, which is what makes it unique.

    Yep. I'd rep you, but the board says I have to spread it around a bit first. I'm waiting for MM to post something good so I can give him a little rep. I think the Blazers will have their GM before that happens. ;)

    Nice. You apparently missed my Chemistry post that got some love earlier.

    As for repping Bobo for saying he just wants the right one after a fucking year has passed, well.......I don't even know what to say about that
