Again, I'm not getting to excited. It will just be another let down.

It's one of those expect the worst and hope for the best kind of deals.

If it happens cool. If it doesn't..... meh.
I am nearing 40 and realized a long time ago PDX is Anti-Sports.

How is PDX anti-sports? The Blazers do very well here. The Ducks and Beavs are very popular. The Timbers are one of the most popular MLS teams in the country.

Portland is lucky to have the Blazers and the Timbers. Allen financed the Rose Garden and Paulson paid the MLS Expansion fee. If Portland had to publicly fund any sort of the construction of a large sports complex, we would have NO pro sports here.

Yeah, and the same is true of about 90% of the rest of the cities who have teams in pro sports.

I'm keeping this going all summer so we can be disappointed when it doesn't happen yet again.

Don't knock the NHL unless you've been to a game and didn't enjoy it. And I would challenge anyone that's ever been to an NHL game to honestly say they were not entertained. NHL would slay in PDX.

Portland Razors?
