    The blazers did that years ago by going Comcast only. This is just more of the same direction.

    Oh god please no PJ Carlesimo. Just my luck after a decade of not being able to watch games, I'll finally have access to games but won't be able to stand to watch.

    I'm sure a lot of that stuff is done for them, and how much of that did Antonio actually do? I'm not saying he just sat up there saying shit, just I don't know if that was part of his job.

    Has anyone suggested Greg Oden yet? He wanted to be a dentist, and listening to him would be like pulling teeth. He probably owes the Blazers an unpaid internship, too.

    I wonder if we'll ever find out the true reason for their dismissal, much like we never heard the real reason KP was fired.

    This kind of makes me think that Kevin Durant could be in play. He would definitely appeal to the Seattle Fanbase. And Lillard stated yesterday he was his #1 choice for Free Agency.

    Cripes does that guy moonlight as a stock yard auctioneer?

    All that excitement and the score is only 11-6. LOL

    I could live with him, for sure.

    I'll miss Rice no matter what though.

    Fuck this. Fuck Chris McGowan. I can barely even remember when it wasn't Mike and Mike.. and they would constantly get compliments from other teams fans about being one of the best commentator duos in the league. This is bullshit.

    Just by Tone talking gives Wheels time to gather and organize notes to call the rest of the game.

    Oden's so rich, he could just pay someone to be an unpaid intern for the Blazers.

    Some of you are overthinking things. Blazers don't care that much about being Seattle's team. Who does care about that is whatever company is going to win the next Blazer TV contract. Whoever it is is going to pay an insane amount and will have to try and earn that back by showing the Blazers in as many markets as possible.

    I'd rather have a tooth pulled then listen to Oden announce games.

    I love the fear that so many of the fans have that the team is going to move to Seattle. It makes for good reading while i'm taking a shit.

    I know there are secret plans to place pontoons under the Rose Garden, slide it down into the river, and turn it into the world's largest yacht. You notice Paul Allen hasn't bought a new one in years. Now you know why.

    I have my fingers crossed the Blazers don't screw the pooch on this transition, and I'm holding my breath they don't re-up with Comcast (oh god please no).

    The fact they expect Wheels to fly solo does not fill me with hope, however. They really need to reconsider this.

    And remember, these are the same clowns who kept Harvey for what, 10 years or something? I would have let him go by Christmas his first year.
