In his piece about tonight's matchup against the Celtics he described, at length, the game played at Boston last year. He pointed out that the Blazers lost by 28! The trouble with that is that we lost 100-90. Now I'm no mathematician, but something doesn't compute there. :crazy:
 
God I thought I was losing it. He said the same thing yesterday on the radio (yes, I started listening to him again).

Maybe he attended a game in an alternate universe?
 
Since when did the truth have any place in his daily works of fiction?
 
Crapzano didnt that name for no reason... :)
 
Why let the facts get in the way of a good story?
 
Damn. I was thinking we'd be able to hear him on the radio later trying to explain this, but he won't be on until Monday.

I think this is just hilarious.
 
Typical lazy journalism from he who must not be named (or read, or listened to). He'd much rather spend his time dreaming up ways to create controversy and negativity than spend it on something as mundane (and productive) as checking his facts.

Yes, it's his editor's fault. Canzano can do no wrong.

Well you do know that in the world of professional writers, that it is actually the job of the editor to go through and fact check and fix mistakes........

Secondly, I think Canzano is a pile of shit. Don't count me in as a supporter. But I did sleep in a Holiday in Express last night. :pimp:
 
Goodness knows I'm not by any means a Canzano fan, but aside from "10" instead of "28", what else in that article was wrong?

KG did do his punching thing before the game. He did talk smack all night long. He did get up in Przybilla's face. He did dunk on Roy. He did talk afterward about "nothing personal", trying to show that "KG = class". We did get punked -- ask Roy. We did play tentative, letting the refs give the advantage to the aggressors.

Hopefully Big Luke gives Greg a phone call before the game to remind him of "elbows and chiclets".
 
I think Cranzanznzo probably smokes weed :)
 
It was a big deal because he made it sound like we got curb-stomped! We actually led at halftime!
 
Instead of "28", he probably meant that the Blazers lost by "2 + 8". A simple typo, no doubt. ;)

Because an editor shouldn't be needed when the fact takes less than ten seconds to look up. This is a common theme with Canzano.
 
I don't think he lied. I think he was confused and more than a bit lazy.

Plus, it's harder to make the point that he wanted to make if he had to deal with the reality of last year's game.

What Ed said. I used to hate both Quick and Canzano but I admit that I'm warming up a bit to Quick but still can't stand crapzano.

I don't think he does.
He does other hilarious things I'm 95% certain I can't legally talk about (I've heard his divorce proceedings.) Seriously, seriously hilarious.

oh please do tell. We're on the Anonynet after all and could use a good scapegoat to kick around after this last game.
