He was really just talking about what our record will be on our first long 4 game road trip not the first 4 games of the season.
This is the thing about mixum. What would happen if the Blazers made real noise in the playoffs? You can't enjoy the feat. It's one thing to be pessimistic and cautious about the team. It's entirely another to completely try and down play the thing that's special about being a fan. I would hate to follow a team if I'm only trying to troll and want us to lose. To want to come in a fan forum just to talk badly about a team, regardless if they are doing well or not. It's just a sad way of living.
Carlixum would start a "Anybody want to address the elephant in the room" thread the very moment the buzzer sounded and the blazers had won the championship. "And that's all she wrote..." (Carl Spackler)
that's his M.O.. Instead of being a level headed fan, who rides the ups and downs of being a fan, he seems to only want to participate in the downs. So yeah, the Warriors were without Iguodala, but it was a home game AND Portland was getting garbage from their best two for most of the game (if it weren't for Matthews, it'd be an L). I don't take anything Mixlitock says seriously. He's obviously not an actual fan, but someone who seems to get his jollies off being a troll. MediocreMan, for as much as he's negative about certain aspects of the team, doesn't *always* piss on the parade. Sure, he doesn't like Leonard (and probably makes a bigger stink out of whats warranted for a 15th man), but it's not all he does. Mixlitock only finds the negative in things, and does so because he thinks he's getting under the skin of fans. When in reality, he's just a caricature of himself now, that most (if not all) of us ignore.
I put Mixum in the same category as Maris and Jlprk. They're not real, only figments of our imaginations.
