    I can’t think of anyone who cares less about what people on Twitter or Reddit or Instagram etc might think of him or his decisions. Literally no one

    If he ever wants to be a head coach, he's going to have to go through this.

    Maybe it's worse here than it would be in LA or NY or wherever, but it's going to come up.

    There is a vid from Countdown on how the Blazers took 2 plus days this via Woj to investigate 97' and they found him to be truthful and such -- watch the vid which i saw linked in the twitter feed to the right on this forum.

    The team did not just go this is our guy and stick there head in the sand so the haters need to realize this and again live with it or just hush about it and stop blaming Dame and NeO.

    based on your response to my comment, I’m not sure how I’m supposed to take it any other way? Your comment is correct and I completely agree that the accusations are more than “baggage”. But you tied my comment to your stance, which overtly implies I made a statement dismissing the accusations.

    as a father to two young daughters and tied to an organization loosely tied to some sexual misconduct allegations (and driving the fight to take a stance against the offenders, tho the allegations are infinitely less than those against Billups), it’s a hot button item I feel strongly about. I have a “no tolerance” policy on such things. So I found your response to mine deeply offensive.

    I'm outraged that people aren't more outraged over the outrage.

    They vetted him but not until the some the fans was out rage of the hiring. Until then they went deep in that year of the allegations. But anyway they was satisfied with outcome and there going ahead with the hire. You can hate or love it but the bottom this out of our control. Some will quit being supporter to the team altogether and some condone his actions but will still a fan and some it's doesn't what he has done and continue be a supporter. Anyway already interesting off season.

    I'm also trying to rationalize it myself. Not sure how I should feel. The excerpts were disturbing

    Maybe a couple of idiots. But if they don't like him then they probably won't show up to the game in the first place.
