The blazer fan's September 11th

 

[Weav]

I have a message. S2... The Trail Blazer's season... was shot down... over the Sea of Japan. It spun in... there were no survivors

[magnifier661]

Omg this totally fits

 

[Mediocre Man]

Maybe, no not maybe, Absolutely the worst analogy in history

I love the MASH reference though

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Here's one for HCP

(psst ...it's a suppository)

"December 9th, 2011...a date that will live in infamy"?

The blazer fan's September 11th

I now call it PPP day - Portlands Pearl Harbor

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Huh?

 

[Sinobas]

It's not quite like that. We were all 80-90% sure Oden and Roy were done, this just put the final nail in our last 10% of hope.

Um.. September 11th is the Blazers fans' September 11th

I now call it PPP day - Portlands Pearl Harbor

Portland's Pearl..... Where's the last P?

 

[Sinobas]

Portland Pearl Parbor day aye?

I know it feels like we're cursed, but remember that Roy had these knee issues when he was drafted. We drafted a star who was pre-destined to be a flash in the pan. That's why the Celtics and T-Wolves passed up on him.

And remember that it was only a 1 in 150 shot or whatever that we win the lottery the year we drafted Oden. We were going to be picking at around 13. But I know, it sucks that we thought the basketball gods were finally going to bestow some fortune on Portland....

 

[Nikolokolus]

Gah ... comparing this to a true tragedy where thousands of people perished in a ball of fire and smoke to what happened yesterday is just wrong on so many levels.

 

[3RA1N1AC]

i think this is actually a little more like portlands holocaust

too soon?

 

[3RA1N1AC]

no but for real, what nik said

i think this might be what it feels like to hear dho is leaving to an orlando fan who was around when shaq left

This is the dumbest, most idiotic thing i've ever read on this message board and that is saying something. if i could negative rep this by a million i would. thousands of people DYING in the most horrific single event to ever happen on U.S. soil should never in any way be compared to a couple millionaires calling it quits.

 

[3RA1N1AC]

the most horrific single event to ever happen on U.S. soil

not trying to derail, and while i agree with the sentiment

no

 

[bigbailes]

so what was then?

 

[Nikolokolus]

so what was then?

Civil War, 200 years of slavery, The Kardashians ...

 

[Ghost Pepper]

On the bright side no one in the Media "ANYWHERE" can say if we do win our team doesn't deserve it !!!

 

[3RA1N1AC]

The Kardashians ...

 

[3RA1N1AC]

hrmm, i actually hadnt thought of the sympathy factor...we might sneak up on a few teams from that...and if we make any type of run at/in the playoffs, its gonna be a hardcore dicksucking festival of atta boys and pats on the back

 

[Ghost Pepper]

You ask for Christmas??? I give you the Tiny Tim's of the NBA!!!!!!

 

[bigbailes]

i don't view the civil war or slavery as a single event, now the kardashians on the other hand ...

Maybe you should just ignore me then. Don't want you to get dumbed up reading my idiotic posts.

 

[bigbailes]

keep tossing stuff up here like that and i will. i mean seriously, roy was no where near the player he once was. at best he was going to be a nice bench player this year. and if you were counting on oden to be the player we drafted this year, then you are more of an optimist than kingspeed is. the la stuff is troubling, but until we hear some definite news i'm going to bury my head in my hands and compare the day to a day that saw thousands of innocent people die.

Lighten up Francis! Geeze and obviously you haven't seen me post. I am the biggest homer on the planet and damn proud of it. You should take a look at life with rose colored glasses. Almost as good as eating mushrooms.

 

[bigbailes]

i know you to be a big homer but a little perspective sounds like it would do you good. sorry yesterday dashed your dreams of a dynasty, for most of us we came to grips with that a while back. i toss on rose colored glasses from time to time and it isn't bad, what i don't do is put on blinders. i suggest you take yours off.
