You know who I mean

The title should be “blazers laying off 20% of staff”

I already knew what this was in reference to but this doesn’t help the people who haven’t seen it yet.

There will inevitably be another thread.

Dundon doing us all a favor by making a easy to switch to being Spurs fans

 

[chris_in_pdx]

Sorry about your layoff, HCP....

 

[blazerkor]

I don't give a fuck who the owner is. I'll wait and see exactly what moves are made before disliking the guy more but I can be a fan of our team and not like our owner.

I don't love the fact that Deni seemingly supports the current government of his home country but I don't have a hard time rooting for him as a Blazers player.

I've been frustrated with the management of our franchise for a while and yeah this does seem to be worse but you're not a real fan if you can't stick with your team through thick and thin.

Do we know that???

Subsidize the arena and lay off jobs. Dundon hates the 99%

Man, fuck this guy

The Blazers have asked us to keep the swearing out of thread titles. In threads is fine.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

And fuck everybody who approved selling the Blazers to such a slimy lowlife

The T Wolves laid off 10% of their business staff. It happens. It sucks, but it happens

Question. Is it normal to have layoffs in off season? Or is this outside the norm?

That makes the most sense to me.

What if we just remove it from 20%?

Say that unfortunately we've had to let the swearing monitor go. Businesses is business.

Casey was great. Still hoping we hang onto Brooke.

Also hoping that you're all good @THE HCP

I mean we do need replays during the broadcasts.

Terrific way to appeal for state funding when you cut 20% of your work force who lives in the community.

It's a threat, not an appeal. We're being told he'll move the team if he doesn't get what he wants.

Jody bitch ass did this shit on purpose. She knew exactly who she was selling too. Also blame Phil Knight for not doing anything in his power to overbid on this franchise to the point it was an offer she couldn’t refuse

 

[Quatro44]

So does this mean 20% of the forum mods will be let go too?

He's looking for more forum volunteers to replace beat reporters

Typical Corporate America

 

[riverman]

This is like losing Wheels. It's going to take a while to sink in. Casey has been the voice of the Blazers for so long that I can't imagine him not there. I wish him all the best but damn, why wasn't it Marang instead?

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Question: what % of the team does Dundon own?

Marang isn't a Blazers employee....
