As much as I love the Blazers, all of the interviews seem to be the same canned answers we've heard since oden went out.

Yeah, youre right. The last 10 ive seen have been the same....

- says they might be over acheiving @ 17-1 (no kidding)

- Its the same crap...No more Jailblazers, his injury is nothing serious. Their lockerroom is very clean...

- He became a go to guy on accident. Suppose to be a play for Randolph, but he drove and made a big basket, since then he has been the man.

- Roys game is slower, doesnt really "run" the ball up the court.

- Nothing surprising really. No interesting questions...

Roy is a really honest, good person.

Somehow I doubt that's what he said... I know Rome is generally an ass but I remember listening to his radio show like almost a year ago(ie towards the end of last season) and he was all up on Roy's nuts about how he's a good guy and a good player... it almost made me like Rome for a second... welll that and him repeatedly calling Jim Everitt(spelling?) of the Rams/Saints Chris(a reference to a female tennis player) to the point of him Everitt clocking Rome on his own nationally televised show... I mean there's not many moments on tv quite as funny as that moment was and that was pure Rome. He's a love/hate guy and mostly leans towards the hate...

Still hilarious after all these years.

As for the answers sounding "canned", that has more to do with the interviewers and the interviewees. You can only answer the same question so many ways, especially when it's a easy generic question like "How are you guys playing so well?".

ROFL

That is such a funny Jim Everett interview.

I guess some people saw that interview for the first time, but for people like us, who watch a lot of blazers stuff, it is a little anti-climactic to see the same questions asked over and over again. But whatever, I am glad we are finally getting some recognition.
