What did Portland Do to the World?

The poor Trailblazers. They spent all those years in the wake of the '92 Finals famous as the "Jailblazers." They finally clean out the front office, and get rid of all those terrible players with awful off-the-court records, and for what? So they can become the Portland Ail-Blazers? I mean, first this, and now this. And all this after years of languishing thanks to trades for people like Shawn Kemp and Darius Miles and the like, and now that they're finally getting a good youth movement, and people keep getting hurt. I mean, seriously - did the Blazers ownership build the Rose Garden on an ancient Indian burial ground, or shoot a bunch of puppies or something? Sheesh...
