    That's primo property. I can also forsee many traffic jams in that location. They'd have to build a super road connecting to I-5 and I-84 and nnother super road to I-405 and Hwy 26.

    I am looking forward to seeing their preliminary plans.

    However, I am not looking forward to the strong possibility that IF this happens, it won't be for probably 5 more years at a minimum.

    what happens first, Portland wins an NBA title, or Portland gets a MLB team?

    Trick question, the answer is the same.

    Just as long as we don't have Blazers and baseball games at the same time, it'd be fine right?

    Well, if they both have games in June and October, it would be awesome.

    Our very own Harry Carey. Can Rice sing? No? Perfect.

    And seriously Barrett may be more suited to announcing baseball.

    Honestly why would you think it would be any sooner than that? If they broke ground on a stadium this summer it would be at least the 2021 season that the stadium would be ready. Since the stadium situation would probably be a year or longer before it gets resolved I think 5 years is a pretty reasonable best case time frame.
