Oregonian hires outsider to examine relationship with Blazers

[Frylock]

It's only a "bullseye" because the Blazers are the only game in town.

Canzano covered Bob Knight, Notre Dame, Jerry Tarkanian, Bonds, Raiders, 49ers before the Blazers. I hardly think he needs the Blazers for his ID.

Yeah, all those things you mentioned matter today. They don't know him for that anymore.

In Portland, he most certainly does need the Blazers for his ID. And I read him regularly.

from many, many miles away, on-line i assume.

Tom Petty,

Oh, I've read Canzano. And I concur about Blazers management. But it's not the Blazers job to report about themselves; they can as they please.

and it's canzano's choice to call the blazers on what he learns about them as well.

Oh, I'm sorry. I guess I need to hold the newsprint in my fingers to "get him."

Of course, he needs the Blazers for his ID? What does that mean? Is his mug emblazoned in that pinwheel logo or something? Are you saying he couldn't find a job in another market, even though he has worked in other markets?

i would bet canzano's resume is free of dust. the oregonian needs canzano much more than he needs them.

Now THAT is a delusional post. Sure, Canzano is good enough to work most anywhere, but without the Blazers he has no identity. He built his reputation off the Blazers. He thrives off of it. It would be like the old man who dies shortly after his wife passes or he retires from his job. Not being able to rake the Blazers would kill him inside.

Yes. That's exactly what I'm saying. Thanks for reading.

no, you need to know the mindset of the community to "get him" ... which, BTW, is a large part of why he's such a damned good columnist (most of the time).

so now you're rereading your work, reposting it and confirming that's what you actually said? bomber, i hope you're also not trying to bite your own face.
