    Not that I love Quick, but please dear god, why NOT Dwight Jaynes. What incriminating dirt does he have on Neil Olshey and/or Paul Allen that keeps him employed?

    Btw this could explain why the local media is ultra sensitive when trade rumors are brought up.

    They probably know no one takes the old man seriously.

    LOL, I almost posted the same thing. They know everybody hates Jaynes and he has no credibility. So, he's a harmless token voice of dissent.

    Why did Quick take the Comcast job anyway? He hated covering the Blazers before he started to cover the Ducks, then loved covering the Ducks, and then became miserable again when he went back to covering the Blazers for the Oregonian. Why did he decide to keep on covering them by joining Comcast?

    Possibly his only alternative? Not sure, but at least it's a steady paycheck.

    It's sad that we are stuck with d-bags like Crapzano, Quick, and Jaynes here in Portland.

    I remember when Jaynes got fired by the Oregonian. He wrote for the free Portland Tribune (not sure if he even got paid for that) and tried to start his own blog. As you can imagine, it was a miserable failure. He's so out of touch with technology, and well pretty much everything else that's happened since the Nixon administration, that went over about as well as me deciding I want to become an Abercrombie & Fitch model in my 50s.

    Why, oh why, Comcrap decided to resurrect his career is beyond me. Guess they feel they need a grumpy old guy that no one takes seriously on the show as a foil for the guys who actually know what the fuck they are talking about.

    That sounds like a typical Portland sports media personality, no alternatives, and last chance town.

    Can you do me a favor, I'm really busy today but there is some confusion in the forum. Can you explain what McGowen is in charge of and overseas vs Olshey. That should really occur before we lynch anyone up.

    Yeah. The Oregonian sports coverage is a fucking sewer. They cover the local sports beats as if it this place was New York or LA with micro certainty. A Ducks player has inconsisent bowel movement and they release a slide show of former Duck players who'be had similar problems. Then Canzano will tie it into a dieting specialist you can listen to on his fucking show.

    This is a sleepy town where sports is a secondary pastime. Not a burgeoning metropolis..... They just want over-hopped beer and a fucking sandwich.

    Hey. I'm sure there are some decent writers and editors who work there. They don't control the policies or working methods the parent company demands. I'm just looking at the overall product. I realize not every media outlet can be the LA Times of SF Chronicle.

    It's not even close. I'd like them even if I didn't live here.
