    I haven't seen Colin in a long time... and I heard he has changed for the worse, but he was always super nice when I worked at 910 The Fan. He tried to help get me an internship at KGW but I ended up passing. I have nothing but good things to say about him when he was in Portland. But again, I have heard he has become a real tool since then.

    One would think they would be enjoying this day with friends or family. Have a happy 4th, @PtldPlatypus and the rest of RC2!

    I listened to him 3-4 years ago, and while he is a typical national guy (labor on one sport/player/team, I.E. his love for Tom Brady), as a person I don't think he's changed too much. He's been open about going to therapy, etc. which I think is really cool.

    If you have to edit it in the quote of someone elses post, you might as well delete the post...

    Amigo, remind me how many posts you made buggin’ about @HCP and his treatment of all the rooks, you included? The people that directly accuse folks of being worked up are typically the ones that are most worked up.

    It’s not a judgment or knock. People should just learn to be honest with themselves and others.

    When I was interning at 910, I was also working at PDX in the ground transportation area. I was working and I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around and it was Colin. He came over to say hi and shake my hand. I didn't even think he knew my name or who I was, but he went out of his way to come over and say hi. I would be disappointed if he changed.

    Yeah, just from my take on him - as annoying as he is as a sports guy (I had to turn him off sometimes) as a person I think he'd be a really nice guy still. Rough around the edges a bit (more of a defense mechanism it feels like), but overall a really solid guy who remembers where he came from. When I listened to him just a couple years ago he talked about Portland (The city) often.

    I heard some stories about him though, from the past couple years, where he was just a real tool in person to people. So I don't know....

    If the Blazers trade Lillard to the Lakers, this long-time Blazer fan is done.

    This is actually the WORST time to trade Dame. He instantly makes any team he is traded to better which makes their draft picks way less valuable. You'd have to find a team that has someone elses pick that is going to be bad. The only two that come to mind are the Celtics (they have the Kings pick in 2019 as long as it isn't #1) or the 76ers (they have Miami's 2021 unprotected pick).

    Then we wouldn't have to worry about how good Dame made them and they both have good young assets to trade back too. The Celtics have Kyrie though so unless it was part of a 3-way trade I doubt there is interest there.

    It just doesn't make sense to trade Dame.

    Unfortunately, sports media, like all media, concerns itself with the emotions rather than the logic.

    As I’ve said before, the Hcp was all a ruse. If I had an issue with him, I still would. I simply played him At his own bully game by playing the ultimate bitch victim and turning the tides.
    Who said he is the only one able to play a character around here?
    Who’s the one holding a grudge man? Lol, I never truly ever gave a shit and I still don’t, I just went over the top with the bs not knowing some people’s limits. Oh well. Not my line, and if you can’t take the heat stay out of the kitchen.

    Best way to get a superteam started? Don't give away your All NBA 1st teamer. I hear that's the hardest part to acquire.

    So, you made all that effort to look like a big whiny b?

    Imma have to say.... you’re still my dogg, but I’d argue that you played yourself. That was a lot of effort there.
