Tod Leiweke, chief executive officer of the Seattle Seahawks, will take over Patterson's duties while a replacement is found, team owner Paul Allen's company said. Patterson has been the team president since 2003. He became the GM after John Nash was fired last May.</div> Weird. Already? I think he has done a fairly good job since taking over. I think he did excellent on draft day, getting Roy, Aldridge, and Rodriguez. I thought he had a nice thing going for the Blazers.

I think Steve did a good job and, honestly, I would rather of had him stay or at least leave at the end of the season.
