    Yeah that was the one and only trade I had insider info on, because my sister helped sell Zach's house.

    If the TV deal is the equivalent to the Blazers giving away Zach Randolph, it's a fizzle

    Now hearing new TV deal wont be officially announced by Trail Blazers until Tuesday, after the holiday weekend. But with how things are now days, I wont be surprised if it leaks out before then.

    Unfortunately, Calabro doesn't play pickup basketball at the 24 Hour Fitness in Lake Oswego.

    I'm happy, if the new TV contract had been crappy it would have been announced this afternoon.

    I really hope it has some sort of no-blackout streaming option.

    With as big of a cluster fuck as today has been, the Blazers should announce now and take our minds off whatever this has been.

    can you imagine the shit storm that would happen if they foolishly announced they were staying with Comcast and there was no chance of it being on dish or direct?

    So is it a good thing or a bad thing they decided not to announce this the day they pissed a lot of fans off?

    If the TV contract goes anything like free agency the games will be reenacted via sock puppets... on Comcast only.

    If they announce they are re upping with comcast, will we see a flurry of blazers fans committing suicide?

    And PJ Carlisimo will be announced as the other announcer and will thus announce the suicides. After this event the Blazers will move to Seattle.

    the best way to handle this awesome off season is to re-up on comcast without making them deal with Dish and Direct, so that way I will have even less reason to watch games.
