    Since there will be a very separate situation ownership wise and business wise. I was very surprised to see Hankins and Brooke and other there yesterday. Curious when they cut ties. Probably after they hire their own staff?

    The Blazers handle the full operations of the Moda Center, so there will always be a relationship with the Blazers and the WNBA team. And Blazers ticket staff sells the suites at Moda Center which will include the WNBA games (and concerts etc), so there will be a relationship there as well.

    My point, that you've expanded on, is that they are intertwined. So much so, a similar name linking the two is understandable.

    If they don't keep Fire it should be The Portland Rose. I have heard a few of you say Roses, but I think Rose singular sounds better.

    Just read that Lewis and Clark College may be changing away from the Pioneers due to a lack of support from students in keeping the mascot.

    It's already been stated that "Cats" will be unacceptable. "Forrest Dogs" however would be just fine.
