    You don't get to steal my thread! THIS is the worst Blazer team I have seen in my life..... well...... I don't know...... last season might have been worse. We should have blown it up then!

    If we're presented with another "big man or explosive scorer" I swear to god we better not pick the big man.

    I have to admit, there will never be anything as bad as the Felton years unless it's the Jamal Crawford years.

    You don’t get to bump this thread.
    You wasted that last year on a playoff team.
    Sorry my thread is the only thread that matters now.

    Now kids, behave nicely.

    Just because your Dad, the former GM who created this fiasco has been let go doesn't mean you should take it out on each other.

    My brother and I have a 10 year old nephew that we have been taking to Mariners games and trying to make a M's fan out of him... I had a conversation with my brother about when the Mariners lost to the Astros in the playoffs due to the bullpen meltdown in the most M's way possible, and essentially it went like, "Do we really want to subject him to a lifetime of this?".

    I am beginning to think the Blazers are in the same boat.

    Cronin was preaching that this is an evaluation year and to keep expectations in check in the off season but everyone's undies got all tight with that hot start and now people are jumping off bridges because we're not a contender THIS year, It's crazy to me.

    Ok. So what's the next move? How do you take this roster and make it a contender NEXT year?

    Let's be real, there probably isn't a move that does that. Including firing Cronin, Billups, or even Jody selling the team.

    Most rosters in this league are not one realistic move away from being a contender next year.

    That's an incredibly vague question.

    Some of us are watching our favorite basketball team and attempting to enjoy the ride, wherever it may take us. Others are losing their minds and think firing a coach or signing a guy for the MLE will make a significant difference. And I'm sure there a lot of different reasons outside that.

    Personally, I would not choose to invest so many hours of my life into something to made me so unhappy, frustrated, angry, etc. like this team seems to do for so many people. I've got my wife for that!

    This team doesn’t make me angry or frustrated and I definitely don’t lose sleep over them. I’m more in the ‘not caring’ stage which I don’t like. I like caring and being into the team.
