Blazers just want a different individual or is this part of larger changes?
 
crap, now there will be no limits on Tom Hamberblab. It'll be a Lamar/Tom blabby yap fest 24/7 all 48m. Calabro won't even get a chance to call the game.
 
My sauces are telling me that Jenisch wasn't a good fit with Blazer Broadcasting and Blazer games will continue to be broadcast in-house.

Which means Mrs HCP will still get a break from HCP 41+ games a season.

I wonder if he had a 3 year contract, and weasled his way into a "favor" from Jody Allen? It seems to be going around, find new ways to scam the owner.
 
more speculation, then i'll stop.

Maybe the Blazers are blaming their drop in viewership numbers on the Director?

The team stunk, OK. But casual NBA fans would tune into games, and watch interviews with coaches/players/staff while missing live action in the background. I noticed the picture in picture on rare occasions. I'd say more often then not we'd be zoomed in on Blazer's nostrils, when we're supposed to be watching live basketball.

Was turning the game off so cutie Hudson could do a weather report a bit too much?

The simple things like replays, soo many Blazer only replays. NBA fans want to see both teams play. The Blazers straight censor good action from opponents. Portland would triple up replays. Not even exciting replays. Meanwhile opponents would be rampaging down the court. Excessive Blazer only replays even cut off live Blazer baskets.

What a mess, the bad broadcasting fused with the Blazers playing bad, with a twist of Tom Hamberblab horsecrap, made for the most disturbingly laughable attempt at NBA entertainment.

Probably just wasn't a good fit.

no, no, it's the offseason after a bad year, and somebody finally got fired. I want the skinny, or i'll just keep making stuff up.

Did Russ pull an Olshey and scream profanities at Dan Dickau ??
