509 just as I started my contribution I saw yours, so to avoid plagiarism I shall quote direct to you: "Anything concerning the Blazers is certainly not the best use of my time - right now (or anytime)." Well played, Charlie
If many of the remaining 81 Blazer games go the way last night's did, it may be just as well that those of us on the central Oregon coast don't get "Rip City TV" or whatever this latest incarnation of "BlazerVision" is called. Supposedly, it's on Spectrum's Channel 187, but that channel doesn't exist on our system.
I don't know how many other rural areas are similarly ignored as far as TV access goes. One would think that the team would at least like its telecasts to be available within the western half of the state, but Blazer management probably doesn't even care about little things like that.
We were able to see the game on NBC Sports Bay Area, where the announcers all but ignored the Blazer players. It would have been nice to know something about the newer and younger Blazer players, but there were too many Warrior highlights to spend time on players who seemed to be little more than cardboard cutouts on defense.
JC, after the game you asked us to sum it up in three words. The answers that immediately came to my mind:
Why bother watching?
Waste of time
This is sad
Very disappointing start, even for a team that had low expectations.
