    The Blazers have a laminated motivational card affixed to the television monitor in the visiting locker room. It's titled, "We are Rip City." It lists all the ways in which the No. 4 seed Blazers will find a way to win this series against the No. 5 Grizzlies. It begins with "We will be tougher," and ends with, "Staying together through adversity." But the middle part is what has to alarm anyone following this matchup closely.


    Because that middle section included such oddities as, "We don't lose to Spanish players," and "Nobody can beat us eight times in one year." Also, it includes a vow to, "Win the dog fight," and, "We will play as a team and outwork Memphis each and every night." Also, "We are better when we come to play," and a promise to be, "(Expletives) on defense."

    I don't know... I don't believe for one minute that it said "we don't lose to Spanish players".....

    Sounds like bullshit to me...

    I thought the "We don't lose to Spanish players" was interesting.

    Anything Quick and Clownfucktard deserves to never have a place here. As a Blazer mod, you should be well aware of that!

    I saw the article this morning. Figured this Spanish players thing would get more air time. If we were in NY or LA, this would be national news

    If I was Gasol, I would sign with Portland this offseason so he will never have to face the Spenish Equisition ever again!

    I have no idea what Spenish Equisition is but I think it has something to do with sex and a horse.

    Has Portland ever had a German player other than Detlef? The Spanish and the French are repped like crazy in the league, but all I've got is Dirk and the kid from Atlanta. Well at least us army brats rule the American National Team.

    Holy crap, Quick and Canzano are stirring up all this drama shit during the playoffs, WTF! Now everyone nationally is quoting the player who said 50-50 for LMA staying, and now this spanish player thing, bound to cause unnecessary drama. FUCK these beat writers
