    Brian Freeman (@BrianFreeman24): Instead of a traditional response, I decided to craft a poem:

    The luxury tax gripped us tight,

    But it seemed for a moment, that we could see the light

    It wasn’t much of a talent nab, but the Blazers finally rid themselves of Allen Crabbe.

    And it’s not Andrew Nicholson that gives me glee, but the opportunity brought from the TPE.

    Olshey spoke and promises came, that we had more options to help out Dame

    But promise turned to lie and we were forsaken, as absolutely no TPE action was taken.

    So now it’ll disappear into thin air, as fans are fed BS about how no moves were there

    TPE we bid you farewell in your shattered lore, I only wish that to our front office, winning mattered more...

    Wow, talk about rounding up. The Nurk trade was 530 days ago. That's closer to one year ago than 2 years ago.

    I don't have a problem with people bashing Olshey. He's provided plenty of valid reasons to do so without resorting to exaggeration and hyperbole.

    Poetry to voice our displeasure about the Blazers may be the most Portland thing have ever seen.

    No, that would be Occupy the Moda Center (forever known as the Rose Garden). :lol:
