Everyone musta stayed up way too long watching the Dick Clark's Rockin' Eve Holiday New Year Special. Heck, just sayin' the title took long enough! But anyhow, the Blazers pulled of another "exciteless NoShow" performance at home last night. Honest to God, this team gets so many people hyped for them, so pumped... then... they fail to put "together" any effort.!
Even the record low crowd for the season reflected the "failure to show" attitude of most fans in the city. Coach well he had few words to say. He offered no excuses, explained nothing, He said only "Come to Tuesday's practice ready to work, or don't bother showing up at all." The Sarge has returned and is ready to work. Pay Attention boys.
Yep, the Blazers have lost three straight, and three of the last four at home in the Rose Garden. Pitiful, just pitiful. Hell, they at least work hard on the road!
OK!Here's the joke of the week!
See if you can crack a smile at this one-

316526. Magloire is TERRIBLE!
by PrtlandSport, 1/2/07 3:21 ET316526.1. He is sooo fun to watch.
by noscat, 1/2/07 3:24 ET316526.2. Magloire is the BEST Blazer!!!!
by dubzC, 1/2/07 3:33 ETHe was an Allstar right? ahaha.. I really don't see how he was an Allstar. Even if he is getting old or whatever, he still should be playing better than he is now! He can be a good rebounder, but that's about it.. Pretty clumsy big guy!
316526.2.1. ok...
by blazer30, 1/2/07 4:06 ETif u call a good rebounder stealing the boards from his own teamate jus to make his stats look a lil better than crap on a stick
Great line, Blazer30!
Back to the Grim Details:
I guess it was close I guess until about one minute to go 83-79 Boston. After that nothing! The Blazers offered 2pts, went what, 1 for 4 shooting and added 4 personal fouls, and one turnover! Oh yeah, they gave up 6pts in that final minute to give the game away, after eating one dunk shot- the Celtics made 4 straight free throws...
Oh Well. Who's up next? NY Knicks... hmm... maybe we CAN snap this streak!
Oh Yeah. About LaMarcus Aldridge... he Did Not Play again, Coaches Decision.
OTHER NOTABLE QUOTES:
Coach Nate McMillan- "We are not playing hard," adding "If you don't compete hard enough in this league, you're not going to beat anybody."
All Star Zach Randolph- "We had no energy" adding "We had blank looks on our faces."
Coach Nate McMillan-"If you don't play hard and compete, you won't even be able to beat a ... college team"
Martell Webster-"I can't explain it..." then "But we need to get back to where we were at the beginning of the season."
the last notable is from Sabastian Telfair the former Blazer, now Celtic "I miss playing in this building," Telfair said. "I loved playing here."
Evidently things haven't changed much.
I think He still must.
I dunno...
