    ignorant post. just because someone took awhile to join said forum doesn't mean they didn't read it before hand.
    you're just upset because you have nothing to counter the point I brought up. so you did the only thing you can do... attack the join date of someone.
    Standard forum post.

    Edit - not going back through posting history to find threads. Continue to attack the join date because your argument has no rock to stand on.

    As an older fan of the Blazers for years I didn't understand that homer meant optimistic fan, supportive fan. I get sick of those posters acting like it's a fucking character flaw. There's the glass half full folks, the glass half empty folks and the glass with a hole in the bottom folks. Whatever your interest in the franchise entails, find your own joy in it. Plenty of folks here post things I don't agree with but do it in a civil manner and talk about the team. Others talk about the fans. I prefer the team banter. Pretty elementary theory but that's my 2 cents.
    by the way....Lamarcus IS the best power forward in the NBA. Everyone here knows Davis is going to be great and will only get better, but right now....LA is the man

    Now it's personal attacks instead of just going after the join date? How childish.
    /done

    Exactly why I left this forum for awhile, and exactly why it takes me forever to sign up for any forum.

    Don't generalize this forum to one bad apple. Not cool at all

    We've been spending a lot of time together since his stroke. Actually, it has given us a chance to reconnect. Thanks for asking.

    I agree with RoyToy, we should have drafted Davis instead of Aldridge.

    And Lebron instead of Batum but 99% of you said no, draft the french guy instead of Lebron. That's why RoyToy and I are the 1%!

    Wait a minute? Batum might actually be a better deal and win more championships. This argument ain't over yet!

    One will win French scoring titles and the other will win championships.

    Or Tyrus Thomas should have never been traded to the Bulls on draft night? Steve Nash would've been perfect off the bench and Spencer Hawes is way better than Chris Kaman...man the hits just keep on coming. Trading Andre Miller for Raymond Felton was a great move? Making Jamal Crawford a starting point guard would work? Elliot Williams was going to be 6th man of the year?

    I was a guy who thought he'd be great, he's healthy now but not having much impact or getting minutes so...I was wrong about Elliot. He's not a top 6th man and probably never will be

    he was also on a 76ers team that was purposely tanking. there was really no incentive for him to do well in a culture that seemed to enjoy losing.
