That ssssssssssssss-ing sound you hear?
It’s the sound of hundreds of thousands of basketball fans with their sky-high hopes for the upcoming Blazers season slowly deflating down to earth.
The moaning and groaning and gnashing of teeth? The inventive swear words? Yeah, same reason.
Why? This headline says it all:
Blazers’ Brandon Roy will have knee surgery
(I have to admit that my own reaction was a much more explosive “Ohhhh, FU…!”)




It’s official. The Blazers are cursed! I mean this is as bad as the whole Babe Ruth curse with the Red Sox!
