    I never read it, except for links on this board.

    But he cited CBS Sports, not Blazers Edge.

    If it weren't for links posted on this very board, I'd never read BE. Their stuff is very weak.

    I see, it's written by Ben Golliver. His nickname must be Dave.

    Or I was referring to two separate people, thus why I included the magical word "and".

    The article was well done, but it did remind me of the Oden video in the other thread. Instead of Oden=Trainwreck, it's Blazers=Trainwreck.

    I used to like Dave when I first started reading BE but I've grown tired of his stuff. I've never really liked Ben, but like him better than Dave now. This site is way better to read and find links.

    Have you ever seen those videos that Dave posts? With him staring at the camera the whole time? Some people should never reveal what they look and talk like if they want you to keep reading their stuff.

    And Ben Golliver is like Quick without the actual access to the team.

    I remember when Adrian Wojnadouce first started going after the Blazers several years ago, and i posted a story there and called him a douche. Dave edited my post and said that they weren't that kind of site, and really came off as an ass. I have never had much use for that site since even though i have seen people say worse with no consequences.

    I got warned for saying "Fuck off Ray." I expected the warning, but it needed to be said.

    I'd have to say he was spot on.

    Regardless of opinions on writers and sites........ I pretty much agree with what was written. It should be a challenging, but fruitful year. We will learn a lot about a lot of players.

    We'll learn how little talent we have and that our young good players have a long ways to go. But that's fine. I wonder how LAM will be with a long term rebuilding project. I mean, I'd love to keep him but it seems as if all he's seen here are rebuilding projects.
