    Embarrassing that after the FIRST GAME of the season, that us Blazer fans can be so arrogant and negative over a performance wasn't up to their perfect standards. We won the game.

    The negativity is sad. Get over yourselves. It's embarrassing, really.

    Meh, we're analyzing the game. Criticism is part of it.

    Winning was great. Now, how many more will we win if we play like that? We are damn lucky the schedule makers gave us a glorified NBDL team to open up with at home.

    Analyzing a game is fine. But barely has anyone mentioned positives about the game.

    Is it not logical to think that we can possibly improve as the season goes on? We got blown out by the Lakers in last year's opener, and we turned out fine didn't we?

    You're right. It is embarrassing when posters tell other posters to "get over themselves."

    You really think your "arrogant and negative" post will change minds and hearts?

    I think I left out "sensitive" too. I wasn't being personal. Don't kill the messenger.

    It's only natural to look at the negatives of a team when you're a fan.

    I agree Hype! It's pathetic that there are more negative threads after a season opening win then there are positive threads.

    And just how far will this team go in the playoffs if they continue to embrace this identity they have carried for a couple of years now.

    It's understandable.

    We played some shitty ball last night.

    None of the negativity you're referencing is unwarranted.

    Aren't you being equally as negative about the fans who are negative about the team? Doesn't that make you very similar to the fans you were complaining about to start this thread?
