Will Wonders never cease? You could have knocked New York Vinnie over with a Frickin feather earlier today! Were you aware that Portland, Oregon actually has Frickin Internet Access? New York Vinnie has to be honest with you I thought they still relied on the Frickin Pony Express! But Frickin Lo and Behold in my e-mail today was some not so nice e-mails commenting on New York Vinnie’s column Oden Is On His Way To Being A Bust!
Now New York Vinnie realizes that Portland is not a true major league city! They after all only have the NBA team not like real cities like Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston and of course the greatest city ever on the face of the planet NEW YORK CITY! See we have all the Major League Sports in our cities including the NBA, the NHL, MLB and the NFL. But poor little insecure Portland, Oregon got their Frickin noses out of joint because New York Vinnie told the truth! And as Jack Nicholson said “They Can’t Handle The Truth!”
You see New York Vinnie wrote what nobody in Portland ever wants to read anywhere! That their Frickin resident genius Kevin Frickin Pritchard screwed up with the first pick of the 2007 NBA Draft. That they took a broken down old mule when they thought they were getting a Frickin Triple Crown Winner! But guess what Blazers fan your old nag will be heading to the Frickin Glue Factory in the next few years! Because his brittle Frickin body will not be able to take the wear and tear of an 82 game regular season. Not to mention the Playoffs! This Pud Oden will be on the Injured List every Frickin year and you can take that to the Frickin Bank!
It truly is too bad because Portland has some excellent players! Brandon Roy is a stud and La Marcus Aldridge is the real Frickin deal. New York Vinnie likes the two rookies from this past season Batum and Fernandez. And The Trail Blazers added a key veteran in Andre Miller to go along with the talented Steve Blake at the point. All you need is a consistent man in the middle. However the only consistency you will get from Pops Oden is he will be consistently hurt!
Sorry Blazers fan New York Vinnie does not sugar coat things. Greg Oden may have the skills and he may have the talent but none of that means squat if you are sitting on the Frickin bench. Greg Oden’s lack of durability will keep him from ever being anything great in the NBA!
