    Well, she certainly would not have asked the question in that manner if it was a..... woman.

    That too.

    Sorry I didn't mean to race bait or anything with my comment, but this past year has made me ultra aware of the discrepancies in how media covers people that are white/black. And some of the coverage we are seeing about Billups is shameful and blatantly racist. But I think back to how much this media market coddled Terry up until this year, and that PC today... was just a disgusting show.

    It's super interesting how no one from the national media is touching the allegations topic with a 10 foot pole. Just one sentence references. There could be a number of reasons for that, but it's just interesting.

    Thank You I didn't get Portland News stations on Hulu in Springfield. As a matter of fact you hardly see anything on the Blazers in the Eugene area. Only 1 station would show their highlights. Just Ducks and Beavs. And High Schools. So Becker was the only reporter from when i lived in PDX in the early '90s i knew. I grew up with Doug Lamear, Ed Whalen, & Steve Arena.

    This issue is going away. Billups is the coach now, period. There's nothing to do.

    The cynic in me thinks Neil's going to trade CJ for Ben soon, just to change the narrative. Politicians do that shit.

    It's like they think anyone with a position of power in the organization is some horrible, lying monster. My bet is that they're human on some level and actually take the allegations extremely seriously, as have all of Billups other employers in the last quarter century.

    In my experience, the most untrusting people are the ones who are untrustworthy themselves.
