I live in Portland and not only is that true about the “curse” on them, anyone who leaves the blazers to play with another team, more times than not those players get better. Do things they should have done here. Just look at any good+ player in the last 10 years that left

The curse is the weather and the arrogance.

Im sure the shitty of LA would love to have the weather that the pacific NW has to endure although you may be right on the arrogance part as far as the downsizing of the pleasure jet.

Mr. Moore,

You missed the most damaging Blazer injury. That was Bill Walton’s which was also a foot injury just like Bowie’e and Oden’s.

When The Mountain Man went down, they were “Red Hot and Rolling” no more.

Apparently there are differing opinions as to whether the Portland medical staff has played a role in these injuries: http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nba-ball-dont-lie/greg-oden-career-could-saved-better-medical-attention-193024275.html

I like how people who don’t believe in the Madden Curse or this curse think it’s dumb that players believe in such things yet it’s a widely held belief that sports are 90% mental.

Also, being superstitious is part of the fun in sports.

Don’t believe me? Look into the closet of any true sports fan and guaranteed they have one smelly-ass lucky shirt!

“It’s like if you ran a McDonalds and it kept getting hit by a meteor, then re-opening, then wiped away in a flood, then re-opening, then getting hit by a tornado. At some point, people are going to look sideways at the manager..”

Nobody is going to be looking at the manager, that dude is dead. Multiple meteors and a tornado? He dead
