Dear Paul Allen,

I know you read this newsgroup. (Hey, how ya doin'!?)

Please move the Trailblazers to Seattle.

You know you want to, so just do it.

Best regards,
Tad Perry

Well Tad, I guess you finally figured me out. I thought you all would guess
it when I told you I was a fat old hairy dude. You want the Trailblazers in
Seattle, consider it done. Hey, you wanna be GM?

Only if I get to hang in your mansion, playing basketball on your private
court,
and can borrow the jet every once in awhile.

I understand Tad, we just have to wait till Stern steps down.. or passes on.

Seattle will get a team again. In the meantime rooting for the Blazers
against all odds of taking out the Kobe Hype machine is appreciated.

For that Tad, you will have to provide some special privileges to me, ;)

Well, I can probably dig up some good sources of ganja for you. (We all know
you inhale!)

That was a thinly veiled allusion to P.A's rumored sexual preference... ;p

I did not actually know that. Dang why is it that presidents and rich guys
can smoke weed but the little guy gets tossed in jail?

I don't care what his sexual preferences are or what he smokes as long
as he keeps the Hawks in Seattle and keeps paying what it takes to
keep them competitive.

That's a good one.

The Blazers will sell out every home game this year and because of that, PA
will break the remaining 18 years on his lease with the city of Portland and
move the team up to Seattle.

The NBA owners will NEVER approve that move.

So jump onto the Blazer bandwagon (don't worry, we keep it low to the ground
so it's easy to get off and on) and watch a magnificent season that will be
bestowed upon the fans this year!
