    felt really bad for Billups, that was his day in front of his family and he did really well. But i felt uncomfortable for him.

    God those people are idiots. No matter what would have been said or done during the press conference that would have been their reaction. I thought Olshey and Chauncey handled it as well as they could have.

    i wasn't referring to Quick's question, but this Anne Peterson's one about "why 5 yrs?" and "why not becky hammon?"

    and the like.

    Anything less than complete transparency would not have been enough, even if there's no way to provide that level of information. These people already have the answer they want to hear, but even if they hear it, they will just criticize the truthfulness and sincerity of the details. There is absolutely no winning.

    How can anybody on Blazers Edge claim credibility when they are aggressively censoring any post that disagrees with them? Let's see them come in here and have a real debate on the issue!

    it's not aggressively censoring, it's straight banning. i had an account there from 2008 that got the axe yesterday after pointing out the hypocrisy in their coverage.

    I didn't think Quick's question should have been cut off, and I don't think it was mean-spirited. But why ask the question? That was actually one thing Chauncey elaborated on quite a bit. How could he elaborate more? Too bad that it is what people in the media are focus on now. Big mistake to mess with the press. They will always get the last word in.....at some point. I am sure Canzano will write an article on it.

    It was a stupid question. The answer would just be more verbal masterbation. They were right to cut if off.

    If Portland fans actually chant that well I'm not going to finish what I was about to say because it is too political so instead I'll say how sad what a once great city has become.

    I don't think it was the greatest performance ever by Neil, but what happened that has someone "still shaking" from it, seriously? How overly dramatic.

    I'm pretty curious how many of these "fans" will attend the games. Twitter has a habit of blowing things out of proportion because you only see the people that are vocal enough to tweet.

    no integrity anymore . Seems its a race to throw something out there that may stick regardless how it can effect people.
