Jesus, dude. What was the point of engaging me then? To say that Quick never wronged you or your friends and therefore it’s not ironic? Well done. You got me.
I liked having a solid reporter that would be thoughtfully critical of the team when warranted. The latter day Quick material felt venomous and veered past reporting and into op-ed material—especially the last one. There’s a place for a columnist that provides context and sourced reportage, but by all accounts Quick had lost the inside line on all his sources and was left to outsider hit pieces. I can’t imagine the team was thrilled with the way he dumped out his notebook of takes in one last dispatch of glory.
Was I not allowed to clarify? You made it a generality and I clarified my stance. It's usually how a conversation works when there's a miscommunication, which is why I clarified. But hey, that's like, your reaction, I guess. Anyway. It's all cleared up. Have a great day, it's beautiful outside!
weather you like him or not, you still wish a guy going through shit all the best. decency is important
Let me clarify something: behavior like this is unbecoming of a moderator. If you want to not make sense to this extent, give up your position so we can put you on ignore if we so desire. Because there's no stance, nor miscommunication. There's not even anything to clear up. There is only you inserting yourself in a bizzarro anecdotal way into an essentially objective statement, rewriting history, then looking for the last word. I should've known better to respond to you in the first place. That's on me. It won't happen again (at least probably not).
I'm not seeing anything wrong with Stren's interaction with you. He's not insulting anyone or using his "mod powers" to win an argument or alter or change what anyone was saying. He's a big Blazer fan just like you are, and if this forum and social media proves, just because you're a fan of the same team doesn't mean you all will agree on things. With the exception of dogs, everyone must love them.
Swear Quick did this same spiel before and said he was done reporting on the Blazers and only going to cover the Ducks then months later he's writing Blazers shit again. I'll believe he's done when we don't hear from him for 2 years. Kind of a shame of a career as I thought he had some talent and was a good radio interview on Primetime with Isaac and Suke but just way too much of his reporting is gotcha and misrepresentations.
Could really care less of his mental health issues. Just not something I care about with any basketball players or sports media. Not saying it isn't serious, just has zero relevance to sports or why I follow NBA basketball. It's as relevant to me as what's on their Netflix playlist or such. Wish everyone the best of luck with whatever they need or can do to be more healthy and happy.
Well I'm the one who created a thread last year to remove Strennus mod powers.... Think we evemtually fought at my Tabor or something. But in this case I didn't see anything wrong with his responses.
Exactly. Once he started following Canzano he was worthless to me. An okay interview for other shows, but that's about it. Nothing trustworthy and since you couldn't trust what he was writing access is really all he ever offered.
