    The Portland WNBA team wasn't even competitive last year. Time for a complete rebuild. Trade anyone with value, replace the coaching staff, and for gods sake, let's get a better front office and owner first. The team as currently constructed is completely pathetic.

    (now I just need to remember to repost this multiple times every year)

    Who gets to the championship first? Blazers or our WNBA team?

    I imagine it's equally likely that either team will buy tickets to watch the championship.

    That means that we'll tank only 5 years while they tank 10. Sell tickets with a tank competition.

    Agreed. WNBA will thrive in this market for sure. Game has changed since last we had a womens team.

    Yeah, my employers would understand me wanting to get 24 days of work over possibly 4 covering the team. Have turned down Winter Olympics though everytime. Traveling with the team during NBA season is a different game. I’d miss too many games.

    Good point. The team would be in charge of the broadcast though like the NBA…..

    Plus the people would have been missing out on that new road trippin content.

    Can we bring road tripping back, for a few episodes? Tell your boss some nerd on a message board said that it would be cool if we brought back road trippin to ask the rookies and younger players what their experience has been like, where they like traveling for away games, etc…

    Just absolute garbage.

    Thanks @SlyPokerDog for handling that.

    Ridiculous and it goes with the cult.

    It's telling that he thinks those are what passes as an insult that "pwns" anyone.

    There is no place here for racism, sexism and whatever it is beast tries to repeatedly do or say.

    Funny thing is, our intern found all my old episodes and recommended we start it up again just last week. I think @THE HCP has retired from being in FRONT of the camera though.

    They have filters that can make you look less like Curly, and more like Brad Pitt .
