Canzano and Quick "Something is not right"

[Natebishop3]

I have a couple buddies from work that are Ukrainian. Its so funny how their mindset is towards Americans and we take everything for granted.

....and yes, they both own late 90's model Benz's.

What's their mindset?

 

[MickZagger]

What's their mindset?

They think we take government for granted.

 

[THE HCP]

I thought Ukraine was kind of nice compared to Russia.

He lives in Gresham!

 

[Natebishop3]

They think we take government for granted.

Or maybe, the government takes US for granted

 

[KingSpeed]

Canzano is being ridiculous. Everyone's record is 0-0. No one has passed us. As far as preseason goes, the only one we tried to win was the last one and we won it. I'm not worried at all.

This thread is under 1100 views at the moment.

And asking members of this community to ignore you is pretty asinine. You're posting public topics on a community forum, the purpose of which is to have discussions about a topic of mutual interest (the Blazers) with the rest of the community. If you want to write out your opinions on the Blazers but only have a certain subset of the community read/respond to it then you should post it elsewhere like a blog or create a forum yourself and invite those you wish to be a part of the community there.

You've been posting this stuff for years and things haven't changed, why would they now?

PLEASE PUT ME ON IGNORE!

How can I? I have seen the light. You bring so much value to the community. Keep on doing it it. It's wonderful. Magnificent. Little birds sing when you post. A ray of sunshine literally emerges from my monitor when your sage words are brought to us mere mortals. I need to buy sunglasses in a cloudy, cloudy city. How wonderful it is. Wonderful.

Just a suggestion. Try to even things out a bit. Don't only post "not so friendly blazer" stuff. Make an effort to get along and things will be much easier for you. You'd rather be ignored than have reasonable discourse? I don't get that.

What a mother fucking gay ass fucking piece of shit trolling thread bump

The only problem I have is Mixum you put little to no effort to having an actual discussion with people. You say your "peace" and tell everyone they are wrong. I would just hope you would you put an effort into actually having a discussion with people but you dont. I havent posted with many of you for very long as I was at O-Live for years, but it seems like you have built a reputation with people, so why not work towards building a better relationship with them now? If everyone put in the effort (not just you, or not just them) then this place would be a hell of a lot more enjoyable. And subsequently a hell of a lot easier for those who mod this forum to actually do their job. I dont know if I should type this as a mod, but since I dont mod this forum I figured it would be ok lol.

You can put THEM on ignore, too, you know.

Thanks for the moderation and administration guys but your talking to him as if he cares about anything else but trolling

 

[MIXUM]

sit back and watch what i said come true.

Obviously I have to get another monitor. This one is just not working.....like that anyway!

 

[XXPrimusXX]

What exactly did you say? Looks to me like you just posted other people's doom and gloom and stated you had a bad feeling.

What exactly IS going to happen MIXUM? So WHEN you are wrong I can throw it in your trolly little face.

 

[Wheels]

this is what I'm talking about. Who cares??? Always trying to point out about being right all the time. You said your peace and leave it at that. No need for the "I told you so" or "you'll see" You are calling the general fan here dumb or a homer, so naturally those who feel the need to defend themselves and take exception to feeling included in a sweeping statement of being called dumb, will feel the urge to attack you back. I promise you, if you cut back on that garbage, that the attacks on you will cut back as well.

I'd never put you on ignore. You helped bring me and Ed O together.

some predictions....

blazers get off to horrible start

oden doesnt play 30 games

roy has a serious injury

no major trades that improve us

batum has best season of any blazer

babbits shooting wins us at least 2 games

blazers miss the playoffs

ok thank you for that. Now can you leave it at that? If you are right I will congratulate you.

 

[Mediocre Man]

The only part of the Quick article I found odd was Brandon saying "I thought we had two really good practices these last couple days to get our offense flowing." Talk about an oxy-moron.

Here is to all but 2 of Mixum's predictions to come true

 

[Ed O]

I'd never put you on ignore. You helped bring me and Ed O together.

Always good to see "fans" rooting against the team. But that's not trolling. Pssh. pathetic. I know I know. Put him on ignore. whatever. Allow one person to dominate a forum with his bullshit. Excellent job.

 

[XXPrimusXX]

blazers get off to horrible start - What constitutes as a horrible start? Through the first 10 games, and under .500?

oden doesnt play 30 games - Pretty straight forward. Ok.

roy has a serious injury - Serious how? Misses how many games you think?

no major trades that improve us - A blockbuster? Or just a simple trade that improves one position? What do you propose? What are our positional needs in your opinion?

batum has best season of any blazer - In what sense? It's virtually impossible that he will lead the team is scoring. We do have a 3-time All Star on our team you know?

babbits shooting wins us at least 2 games - Vague, but I guess that works.

blazers miss the playoffs - You will be wrong about this one like you were last year.




You seem like a betting man, so I propose a little wager. Nothing too fancy, just that WHEN you are wrong about the majority of these predictions (at least 4 out of the 7), I want you to post something in your signature. I get to pick what it is, and if you are right about the majority, I will post something in my sig, and you get to choose what it is?

Sound like a deal?

 

[MIXUM]

they are tough predictions... i know. im sorry but this is my forecast. really think the blazers are in for a brutal season.

roys comments above confirm this

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

even if we suck these guys will never admit it....

all you will hear is "next year"

Stop, already.

 

[hasoos]

I have said this before. I believe that there is a storm cloud from last season still hanging over the Portland fans. This is effecting how people feel about the team, team chemistry, team depth, coaching, every aspect of the team has the shadow of this storm cloud over it. With the emotional roller coaster the fans have been lead through over the last 8 years, it is no surprise. When you top it off with the pumping sunshine up your ass that KP brought along with it, it is no wonder fans expectations were through the ceiling. When those expectations weren't met a lot of people didn't like it, and they still haven't got over it. For me personally, in order to start enjoying basketball again, I had to do something I didn't want to do. I lowered my expectations of the team. But since then I have enjoyed basketball much more again. The days when Greg Oden was coming in as a draft pick and hopes were exponentially high are gone. But maybe that is a good thing.

 

[MIXUM]

if im wrong about 4 of 7...... i will post mixum was 100% wrong about the 2010-2011 season as my sig for a year

now i will clearify the predictions....

horrible start... after 20 games the blazers are at or under 10 wins

roy misses 20 + games with same injury or a nagging one

no major trades that drastically IMPROVE us. example... miller, pryz, 1st rounder for devin harris. thats a big trade

batums numbers increase across board or at least a career year

blazers miss playoffs

babbit makes some big shots to win us a few games or has 15+

oden is a slam dunk not to play 30....

so theres your bet...

 

[XXPrimusXX]

Hmmm.

I definitely want to do this bet, but the predictions on Batum and Babbit are pretty vague.

And if you are wrong about some of these predictions, we wont need to make a trade that drastically improves us.

Btw, what would I need to post in my signature? The opposite of your statement?
