If the Portland Trail Blazers were no more, would you continue watching the NBA?

  1. Yes; I love basketball, Blazers or no Blazers

    I hate pretty much every other team, so that would blow cocks.

    To answer the question, no.

    At one time I used to watch a lot of hoops and follow other teams, but at this point I don't really enjoy NBA basketball and only follow the Blazers because I was born a Blazers fan. If the team left, I would stop following the sport almost entirely.

    This is the exact reason your opinion about basketball holds NO credibility whatsoever.:cheers:

    I would probably watch a few Sacramento games here and there, but my heart wouldn't be in it.

    A forum vet told me to remind you there's always landscaping... :)

    B-ball is my fav sport so I'd find another team to pull for though (besides the L_kers). If the 'zers ever left, I'd feel doubly jipped. I grew up near Seattle, so naturally the Supes were my team. When they left it hurt, but it was a natural choice to support the next most local team; plus I lived in Oregon when that went down so it was an easy choice. Been a Portland fan for 7 years now and I've loved it!

    If the Blazers leave... what happens to this site? Do we become a Sushi and Porn review forum?

    "I'm not stupid, Lucius. No one lives forever. No one. But with advances in modern science and my high level of income, I mean, it's not crazy to think I can't live to be 245, maybe 300. Heck, I just read in the newspaper they put a pig heart in some guy from Russian. You know-- I mean, do you know what that means?"
