    Just do a search of most posts covering Meyers Leonard over the last few months. I hate to say this but he is the Omega Wolf of the roster for Blazer fans.

    I was talking about in this thread. You know, the one about his surgery. You know, the thread in which DLJ impugned other commenters' "class" because people were "bagging on him" after learning that he was going to be out 6-8 months.

    My point was that as much as people have been frustrated with his game, his development, and his likely price tag, nobody said anything negative about him in this thread except some unknown with all of 13 posts to his name. To suggest that the rest of us fell short of some presumed level of humanity was unreasonable, and deserved to be called out.

    Due to he won't be back until after camp and couple months after I think Neil should renounce him to sign someone that will be available from the start.

    I like Meyers.

    There. I said it. I'm out of the closet.

    God it's such a relief. I wish I'd come out sooner.

    I'm loud. I'm proud. I like Meyers Leonard.

    Deal with it.

    I already said exactly this. Some parts MAY need to be filled in but I assumed everyone would figure it out.

    Just relax - the black helicopters will be there shortly.

    It might be best if you removed your belt, shoes, and any sharp objects.

    Better yet - just get on the floor. (FACE DOWN!)

    Don't be afraid.

    The injections only hurt for a little while.

    Really!

    Trust me and deal with it.

    I like Meyers and he seems a great guy. However as a Bball player I'd prefer him on another team, no hate or dislike, just an opinion on his Bball skill set. However with this injury it's more possible he may remain a Blazer as he will likely get paid a lot less than we thought, in any case I wish Meyers the best and a rapid recovery.

    Hey! I ain't no 13-post newby, I just couldn't resist the opportunity to claim "Dreamkillah" from Dame's TV commercial. I have been a season ticket holder longer than some of you have been alive . . . I'm sorry Leonard got hurt, too, I'm hoping he does some self-reflection and starts going "bad boy" on the opposition for once when he comes back.
