Calabro and Hurd

[Orion Bailey]

so much for "keep Portland weird" huh? just sell out so people will like us.

I hear what your saying, but I've never been a fan of keeping Portland "Weird" as a Moonlighting musician, I much prefer the national attention over keeping a few quirks that seem to have us thinking we are unique.

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

The other thing that stings is that Calabro is basically a Seattle Supersonics legend. And as Portlanders, we are raised to despise anything Seattle. As good as he is and as objective as he may be, you know on the inside he has hated the Blazers and has looked down on Portland throughout the years (which is what all Seattle people do).

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Also, if and when the Sonics return, if Calabro is still around you know he's going to jump ship with the quickness.

Not true at all. That's a blanket statement like saying all blacks are felons. Or all whites are honkies. OR all Asians cant drive.

Come on now. I know many people up there. Spent half my life up there. There are MANY up there who actually like Portland better but are stuck up there due to family, career,etc.
Trust me when I say you are wrong that all Seattle people hate Portland.

he's under contract so we would probably just cuck him out

I think Hurd gives great analysis

HELLA

I don't get what these ppl are talking about

0/10. Its "Fuck Seattle" for a reason, yo.

These guys are totally fine. They do a solid job. Maybe if the team wasn't playing so shitty we would notice how good they are. Instead the product is trash this year and now everybody is bored so they pick on announcers.

Can you imagine the depressed tone Barrett would have with this blazer team? Omg I don't even want to imagine

To you maybe, but not to all. And the same for them up there when relating to Portland.

MY BRO IS IN BELLEVUE AND HE'S A HUGE DOUCHE

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

i kid i kid. but most people in seattle are annoying. can't deny it. passive agressive shithead drivers too

 

[Pinwheel1]

I am really enjoying them. I am surprised at how good Hurd is.

well that explains it. I have douche family up there too. I thought that was an unspoken fact that all Seattle relatives are douches. lol.
They are Cali drivers there for sure, but you know what. I think id rather deal with their driving than these asshats in Portland who think the left lane is for the line to go fishing or something and force everyone to pass them on the right side.

Actually he's the one who complains about Seattle fans and how they are all bandwagon and don't know shit. Looking at the Sounders and Seahawks crowds, you can see how "manufactured" their fandom is, maybe the Vulcans are trying to do the same to the Blazers fanbase.

 

[BlazerWookee]

Calabro's terrific, if a little too impartial. Hurd is good for at least one facepalm per quarter, sometimes two or three.

I'm still mad they got rid of the Mikes.

Do you live IN Portland? Or the suburbs? Because if you are FROM Portland or live IN Portland, you accept our quirkiness for the most part.

I lived there for a year and a half....least cool city I've ever spent time in...didn't float my boat...my oldest son loves it though...spends a lot of time there...he's jaded too

YOU LIVED IN TORRANCE DIDN'T YOU?

 

[riverman]

YOU LIVED IN TORRANCE DIDN'T YOU?

I lived in Echo Park, Silverlake and Glendale and one summer rebuilding a summer camp in Malibu but worked all over the city doing demolition by day and playing in a band at night...the club scene in LA sucked compared to the Northern Cal circuit....I was single then and the LA single scene was pretty sad...plus the Lakers are there....if you were a coke dealer or couch casting old bald guy you could collect all the Barbie Dolls in the city....I wasn't that guy

Born in the central coastal mountains without a doctor. Hippy parents living off the land. Spent most of my youth moving from Portland to Seattle every other year or so. I've live all over Portland and all over the Puget sound. I've lived downtown Portland, off johnsons creek. Laurelhurst area. Currently near mall 205.
Don't get me wrong. I totally accept the quirkiness. Hell, you read my posts. I'm wierd no? Lol.
I just don't know if it's in the best interest of the city to promo that. It's pretty seclusive. As an entertainer, I want the city to appeal to the masses

actually el prez's brother lives there I believe....nice guy too!

We have met. Sage burn?

His mom was one of those back in the day, but the San Diego version
