F' off Bert!

That goes along with what has been whispered about the Powell/RoCo trade.

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

You know, I wanted them to fire Olshey so bad 5 years ago I could taste it but now I think I want new ownership even worse.

 

[BBert]

Heyyy!!!!!

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

Heyyy!!!!!

Haha, when I first read it I thought it was about you.

 

[BBert]

Please God give me new ownership!

 

[TBpup]

Please God give me new ownership!

Most likely at this point might be Larry Ellison. (Oracle)

 

[BBert]

Me too. I was like, "What did I do to Fez THIS time."

 

[MickZagger]

Why leave Lillard in this debacle.

 

[e_blazer]

Haha, when I first read it I thought it was about you.

Ditto.

And with good reason.

Question: Do Jodi and Kolde still go to Blazers games at all?

If they do, I would love to get as many of us as possible into the Rose Garden (yes, I said it!) and start a chant of:

"SELL THE BLAZERS!! SELL THE BLAZERS!! SELL THE BLAZERS!!"

Literally the only way those people would ever "hear our voices."

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

had the same thought!

 

[BBert]

What can I say. My reputation follows me wherever I go.

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

Mods please add strategically placed B.

Doubt they sell an NBA franchise value increase each year is unbelievable. Many organization have sold share's of ownership to investment /equity firms, because of the return.

 

[Sheldon Shape]

What are you talking about?

Bert for GM because Justice Winslow is great return! And we got a 2025 second round pick?

Radical!

I would love for new ownership. Vulcans only care about making money. Fan enjoyment doesn’t matter to them. Once the new TV is in place I can see the team up for sale at a record price. Billionaires making billions (I guess they won their championship).

 

[SharpesTriumph]

You know this actually makes me wonder, what criticisms of Olshey's bad moves was misplaced? Who knows what Bert and Jody directives he had to navigate.

Yes. This has all the hallmarks of a rudderless ship.

So Bert and Jody just attend crappy Blazer games to rub their hands together for the incoming windfall?

Sure, why not

 

[DDolla]

Any rich guy in Portland that can buy the Blazers?

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Fire Jody and Bert!

I’ve posted about this before, over the years. The amount of deals that do/don’t get made that the GM truly is not responsible for is much higher than fans think. Much much higher.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Been saying this for a bit. I’m not humble enough not to bring this up

It's also been explained to me that the #1 duty of a GM is managing the owner. So in a sense it's the GM job to get the owner to allow you to make the correct decision.

Uh yeah good luck with that. NBA owners don’t get managed.

I hope not. That is the one person buying the Blazers that might make me turn in my fan card. Fuck Oracle.

Timbers owner OR bill gates who was a good friend from Paul

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

I did not sign off on the title change.
