    Hello darkness, my old friend
    You mean Portland's actions aren't like the plot of that movie? I thought the general lead up to getting your fanbase to abandon you in disgust was creating a young and extremely talented roster?

    what movie? Its a fail in linking properly.

    Its just a conspiracy theory....nothing more than the conspiracy of imaginary cap space, which was treated as crazy 2 years ago1

    Not a failure on my end. The image shows up just fine when I view the thread. For some reason, on this site, directly linked images sometimes do show up and sometimes don't.

    Anyway, I linked the movie poster for the movie "Major League."

    I don't think you know what "conspiracy" means. :) Also, if Portland does get Millsap, will the cap space still have been "imaginary?"

    well, I think that's a fine prospect and I like Milsap. Not quite the splash I was expecting but I'm happy with that move.

    What more can the people here do? They sold-out every game, they are getting higher ticket prices in a worsening economy, and half of the state can't watch the team on TV.

    offer some help on the RG I guess, or do the Rose Quarter development.. I dunno maybe it already is I'm not big into politics and that stuff. Not sure what the half the state cant watch comment means though.

    It means that Dish/DirecTV customers everywhere, and cable customers in other parts of the state that can't receive Comcast, are not able to watch the games televised on Comcast.

    More viewers = higher ad rates = more revenue.

    You can get CSNW if you are 100 miles from the rosegarden.

    Not on dish, and not on cable systems that hasn't cut a deal with Comcast.

    Back when Allen lost control of the RG, this theory might have had legs. Now? Even if he could break the deal with the city, how can he abandon the RG and not lose money on the deal?
