    Blazers haven't swept a team since 1990 and that was a best of 5. Crazy, right? I got Blazers in 5 but a sweep sure would be nice.

    EDIT: We swept the Suns 3-0 in 1999.

    I think you mean what's the timeline until Collins has another setback?

    Should we throw Game 1? Last two champions lost Game 1.

    1st week of June. During second round or possible WCF's.
    Don't look for him to return this year.

    Can't stand him. He's a master of the strawman argument, and it drives me nuts.

    I often think that his arguments are just plain wrong.

    I guess that happens all over the place. In sports it's almost hard not to get the conversation off track a bit. Emotions come into play. I don't get much chance to listen to him. I usually work during those hours.

    I'm certain he is wrong as much as the next guy. At least he wasn't complete homer the hour i watched him. He did point out some Blazer weaknesses.

    It's not about being wrong. It's about being arrogant about being wrong, AND completely unwilling to listen to anyone.

    I guess i haven't listened to him enough. Probably won't get much chance. I just happened to have a day off which doesn't happen much.

    This is the worst Blazers that I've ever seen. 3-9 to close season.

    He also doesn't ever take calls as far as I can tell, so nobody can call him on it.
