[Hype #9]

Looks very strange:

 

[Mediocre Man]

Let it go. Fuck him, he quit on the team and now he is somewhere else

 

[Natebishop3]

They sure aren't building him up to fail....

I like B Roy, but I don't want to fuck him.

A few quotes

"This is a very difficult and painful day," Roy said in a statement released by the team. "I love the game, I love the Portland Trail Blazers and I love our fans, but after consulting with my doctors, I will seek a determination that I've suffered a career ending injury, pursuant to the rules of the collective bargaining agreement."

"My family and health are most important to me and in the end this decision was about them and my quality of life,

All that sounds like total bullshit to me.

 

[illmatic99]

This is a guy that came back to play just 6 days after double knee surgery. You'd think some Blazer fans would be more appreciative

If you were a Bulls fan, would you hate Michael Jordan for un-retiring and playing for the Wizards?

Actually it was his own doctor. Fucking liar

It's sort of semantics, but technically weren't the Blazers physicians "his" doctors when he was employed by the team?

Different situations

Only because one guy was well into his 30s and was retiring because he wanted to. By the time Jordan came back, he was nowhere near the player that he was in his final season with the Bulls, and I suspect Roy will be nowhere near the player that he was with the Blazers. I think it's similar in that this is just a case of a player getting the itch to play again, even though he should stay retired.

He got 2nd and third opinions

He who signs the big new contract gets to write the history.

Looks like a red "X" to me.

Good for him I guess.

I dunno, I just can't quite work myself up to caring about this. I mean, it's definitely weird to see him in a different uniform, but given his age and the egos most of these pro athletes have I can't say I'm surprised to see him attempt a comeback. And whatever his true intentions were with retirement long-term, in the short run it kind of gave the Blazers cover to amnesty him without much fallout.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

It was terrible the way he went out, and if he really has a chance to re-launch his career, good luck to him. Anyone who boos him at the Rose Garden is an asshole.

And there you have it. Kahn's reason for signing him.

 

[Eastoff]

Shhh let's stop talking.

 

[RR7]

Looks like a red "X" to me.

You're looking at his medical report on his knees, not the picture of him in the Minny uniform, that's your problem.

Shoot. If PA wants to save a few bucks, I hear that the Jeff Gillooly gang is still available for knee jobs. Or maybe it was that he's on his knees in prison giving BJs.
