Hey, paid journalists are ripped on for accuracy daily on this board. At least get simple things such as age correct when ripping them now that we're considered a source of news.

Yeah, everything but the employment part... Oh, and the fact that the public notified the team (in effect), not the other way around.

And what exactly was that value? Fame? I've written countless articles that have appeared in magazines, on websites, and on the blazers homepage. Sure, it was interesting seeing a story that I broke on the cover of ESPN.com, but big deal. It's not exactly a thrill anymore.

I'm not in that industry, so that "value" doesn't mean squat. I only wrote my post because I'm a fan and I figured other fans would want to know. That's it. Plain and simple. You can try to spin it however you wish, but I had no idea the story was going to be this big.

You got to play with Oden? I'd take that. Although it would probably cripple me.

Re: Dear NateBishop3

Ok. Im just gonna say it. The only conclusion I can come to is this PR stunt orchestrated by the blazers and you are in on it (maybe you are unaware). But if they, er i mean Oden came to my gym and played against me, i wouldn't tell a soul on the off chance it could happen again. He played you for a reason.

No it was the shadow government that was behind the whole thing. Or maybe it was the Illuminati. Or possibly the mafia. In fact, I'm pretty sure I saw Lee Harvey Oswald running the point.

I was there, I saw his friends convince him to play on a whim, and if I hadn't said something nobody would have even known it had happened. You can believe what you want though.

Just curious, how many assists did Oswald have?

None. It was a one man show for Oswald. He was jacking up shots from all kinds of crazy angles.
