    You're arguing basic logic with false pretenses by trying to paint it as bias.

    Based on the content of your posts, the "smh" is now implied.

    Why are you talking in the 3rd person?

    I've had this argument with him. He refuses to acknowledge that the 1995 renovation wasn't top notch.

    It's such a foolish argument to try and compare the Seattle Key Arena to an NBA arena.The arena issue could be why Balmer didn't buy the Sonics at the time and instead later purchased the Clippers. If anyone should be afraid of losing their team I would think Clipper fans have to be a bit on edge with Clippers having to share with the lakers and Balmer being from Seattle and Seattle is clamoring for a team if they can get the arena issue dealt with.

    My point was that the Rose garden is not perfect and will need to be upgraded soon. So yeah i agree. Don't think that arena is going to last.

    I would prefer them to stay here, of course, but I would much prefer Vegas rather than Seattle. I hate everything about Seattle.

    I drove to Seattle a couple years ago for a 49er game.

    That was enough for me.

    Vegas isn't Los Angeles. The League isn't jonesing for a team in Vegas like the NFL was for SoCal. The Raiders are going there because of Oakland's inability to sell the small Oakland Coliseum out on a regular basis. (Mt. Davis has been tarped off for years). There will, probably already in preliminary planning stages, be some local investment teams in Oregon ready to make an offer for the Blazers. Plus, Mr. Allen was an amazing man who was more than just a rich dude. He cared about people. I'm willing to bet he made sure the Blazers will end up staying in Oregon. That's who Paul Allen was. For all we know, Lillard's meeting with Paul may have covered this subject, just as much as what direction the team is heading in.

    49ers? Do they still have a team? I thought they were moved to a real city.

    Signed a concerned Cowboy fan. :cool:

    Go Blazers!
