    Whoa... whoa... whoa... I said I get a little frisky with Homer's wife, that doesn't mean I'm fisting her. That's way over the top, way way over the top.

    Sure, change your story now. You need to keep your perverse sexual fantasies about Homer's wife out of forum. Or do what Mags does and substitute Mrs Homer with Trump.

    Not sure Roy "loved the community", but other than that, you're right. A leopard can't change its spots.

    Whoa! I am sure we will know about Lamarcus after how it goes this year. He is playing in a basketball system now, we shall see.

    Give me the Ball, Iso Roy, was a style, not so sure it was leadership. Leading the team in three point shots taken might be about the same kind a leadership especially if it continues to mean
    no chance to win a first round series.

    He loved that last contract here though, I am quite sure.
    Even knowing he could never deliver.

    You got me maybe Roy didn't love the community too much. Lillard definitely seems to. But you can't deny Roy was a leader. Just because McMillan was a terrible coach doesn't mean Roy wasn't a leader cuz he Iso'd. He was unstoppable. And wasn't Roy the one who stood up to Z-Bo and the last bit of bad blazers and was the start of the "new image" kind of thing with the Blazers? I think he was even a rookie when he stood up to them as well.

    So you would look at that 80M dollar contract and say "nahh I know I can't deliver its better you don't give me all this money and make me and my loved ones rich for life" ??

    Naw, I am just saying, he knew he was ripping us off. So did the GM at the time. I don't view that with any fondness.

    In the long run it really only hurt Paul Allen's wallet and iirc insurance covered a lot of that due money after the amnesty.

    I've honestly got nothing against LMA up to his point of signing with The Spurs. He played hard for us. He played hurt. And he wasnt under some special rule to seriously consider the Blazers offer first. BUT after the signing.... his sleazy PR prepared/FU to the fans that John Canzano released (which is like having Adolph Hitler give a keynote speech on human rights) was a complete slap in the face. Life goes on, but if he expects this franchise to retire his jersey at some point.... good luck with that one.

    Ding ding ding ding ding ding ding!!!

    How many of you supported Darius Miles when he quit on our team? That's right, none of you! Is it not apparent that LaMarcus quit on us two games into the playoffs?? And you expect us to continue to have love for that fuckin' quitter??? I am a Portland Trail Blazers fan!! If you quit on my team you quit on my city!! How can any of you have any affinity for that fuckin' quitter!!?? He actually quit on us.....

    There's still Blazer fans that would take Oden back, we seem to stick with and pine for losers too long.

    LMA will sign his finally contract with the Blazers. Play a year, come off the bench, and retire as the greatest Blazer ever.

    As long has he says the right things the fans will forgive him. I wont, but you guys are easy.

    Before we take you back, you must march across the rose garden, stick your head between your legs, and kiss your own arse. Do it, and your men shall live. Do it not, and every one of you will die today.
