Love the headline: Cops dog Blazers' forward QUOTE
\"The Trail Blazers organization continues our own investigation and we are cooperating fully with authorities in this serious matter,\" team president Steve Patterson said in a statement yesterday. \"Qyntel remains suspended from the team because of the allegations made against him involving his participation in dog fighting and the five other incidents involving Qyntel and the police since February 2003. If further steps are needed, we will not hesitate to take them.\"
Five OTHER incidents? How many incidents are needed before they cut this creep loose?

And to think it was just last season that the Blazers vowed to have a team of which the community could be proud. Oh how the Rose City must miss the days of Bill Walton!

Yes, Adam, it was because of that pledge that the team made three in-season trades. And it was because of that pledge that Woods was suspended by the team, something I can assure you the previous GM would NOT have done. It is pretty well accepted that Woods has played his last game in a Blazer uniform. If the team can't trade him -- for anyone -- he will be waived.
Previous GM was running a fantasy league team with no regard for what type of person the players were. The mess won't be cleaned up overnight but the Blazers have gone a significant way in the correct direction. Believe me, this is not taken lightly. (Yes I do have contacts inside the team and I know what I'm talking about.)

A Trailblazer player in legal trouble? That's crazy talk! Next you'll be telling us there are gay male figure skaters, NBA players with babies with many different women, baseball players on steroids and the WWE is fake!

Remids me of something funny I read somewhere: imagine if all the "Who's your daddy" chants were happening at an NBA game instead of Yankee Stadium.
