I just heard on the news this morning that Zach Randolph was arrested last night. This one really sucks, because he's one of the few players left on the blazers that I still like. I'm not sure what the charges were though. I was so disgusted when I heard the news, that I left the room before I could find out. This is just another of a long, and I'm sure continuing list of disgraceful moments in the Trailblazers recent history. I wonder which player will be in trouble next month? Any guesses??

I went to Yahoo.com in the NBA section & it said that he was arrested for driving under the influence of intoxicants. He was probably doing drugs or maybe alcohol. It didn't say what intoxicant he was under the influence of. This doesn't surprise me. Most of the players on Portland's team is thugs & hoodlums LOL. Portland is 8-2 at home but 0-5 on the road. They need to play a lot better on the road to be a contender. Even if Portland's GM trades Rasheed, Bonzi, Ruben, Damon, what teams are gonna wanna take a chance with them thugs? They're gonna be a distraction to any team they go to no matter how talented they are.

As a Portland resident, I say who cares. The Portland Trailblazers will never again live up to their glory days. I had no respect for the team before, and now this enforces it. I hope Maurice Cheeks can get out of there while he still can, and Paul Allen tries to do something with these Morons.

question I dont know if its true or not. When Brian Grant was a trailblazer I heard a rumor that the legal amount of marijuana that you could posses on your persons in the state of Oregon is large compared to other areas. This would attribute to the Basketball players with a habit or weed jones to stay in trouble. as in:...rasheed wallace..bonzi....damon....and now zach...is there any truth to this.?

I'm not sure if that's true or not. Zach is suppose to speak on the issue tonight, so if there was any untruth, or corruption involved with his arrest, I'm sure he'll say something. What I want to know is why would a well known basketball player be driving around under the influence of marijuana anyway? Why would anyone, famous or not be driving around with, or under the influence? Can't they just leave it at home? Iv'e always wondered about this. Sometimes I just don't understand people.

WELL HE IS IN MEMPHIS NOW.(BONZI)

I just read on rapmusic.com that Rasheed Wallace was walkin out of practice when practice was over a couple of days ago & Bonzi Wells was with him. Ruben Boujtme Boujtme who is their teammate was shooting by himself when practice was over. Rasheed tapped Bonzi on the shoulder & said watch this. Rasheed threw a basketball at Ruben 100 feet away from them & the basketball hit Ruben in the back of the head hard & Ruben fell to the ground wincing in pain. The trainers came out to see what happened & Rasheed & Bonzi were laughin hard. That is cold blooded. They are some ignorant b******s. That same exact thing happened to me yrs ago when i was playing basketball at a community center in a gym. When i turned around to see who threw the ball, everybody played dumb. So i walked out & left. I haven't been back to that community center since.

That is one of the most disturbing things Iv'e read in regards to sports in a long time. Of course I can't confirm whether this is true or not since I never read the article, but if Rasheed really did do this, I think he belongs in jail!!! As far as I'm concerned that's assault! He can claim it was just a rib on a new player or something, but throwing a ball at someone's head, and having them wincing in pain on the hard wood floor is no joke! The kids on my 5th grade basketball team were mature enough not to pull crap like this. Maybe Sheed, and Bonzi need to go back to Kindergarten or something! What makes it even sicker, (if it's true) is the fact that those two jokers were laughing. Now that's just disgusting! I agree with a subject you posted awhile back Isiah, the blazers need a coach like Barkley. You can darn well bet they wouldn't be pulling crap like this with Barkley around. He'd send their asses to boot camp, and have them crapping in their little shorts!

Btw, sorry about what happened to you at the community center! I know what it's like to deal with morons like that myself. Best thing to do is just stay away from places like that, as you have, and associate yourself with good people who you can trust.

The NBA makes the NFL, NHL, and/or MLB players look like boy scouts and angels because the NBA has had over fifty players in trouble with the law just this year off the court.
