    lol. From an article that only has "multiple sources" as his backup, which was made into a meme because it's a joke.

    Want to try that again?

    I will say Rasta's meltdown won't even be close to mine if Aldridge leaves

    You should be comforted by my track record of knowing when Blazers personnel aren't worth keeping:

    Nate McMillan: 2-3 years ahead of the curve.
    Travis Outlaw: How many years was he with us? That many years, minus a few months, ahead of the curve.
    Brandon Roy: 1-2 years ahead of the curve.
    Gerald Wallace: his entire Blazers tenure
    Abdur-Rahim: his entire Blazers tenure

    Believe me when I say that LMA is not worth keeping.

    Stren, he's gone. Remember when the Warriors were tied with the Cavs 2-2 in the Finals and you said it was done, the Warriors would win in 6? It's like that. It wasn't official then but you called it early. Aldridge is gone and the one nice thing he did was to tell us before the draft so that we could make decisions knowing he's out of the picture. Give it up, Stren.

    Nope. 100% he stays.

    And, for semantical purposes, I said it when GS was down 2-1.

    Since it's 100%, would you make that bet with a gun to your head?

    Anyone stupid enough to bet their life for anything is a complete dumb fuck. The fact that you would even suggest betting that is a slight to your character

    By whom? You mean the one where dame said no one told him? Or maybe Woj, whom should be the only insider you should trust?

    After what just happened, how can anybody believe he is coming back?

    WTF people? How did we get an owner, a GM, and a star player who all hate us (the fans).

    I'm not even going to entertain that.

    Also, would you ask these reporters to do the same thing?

    Because it's reporters, and they don't have accountability for their actions in this day and age unless a massive outburst (ala Brian Williams) happens.

    That may be the most sensible thing you have said today. (no sarcasm)

    Woj

    The Blazers haven't conceded that Aldridge is gone, but he'd undoubtedly return to a different roster.

    I really haven't said much today, so I'll take it as a compliment. :)
