He kind of talks like a bad ventriloquist

But he doesn’t play like one

Dictated, not read. The management.

Am I the only one ...

that notices that Greg says “they” when he talks about Portland. He also uses “over there” or something like it in interviews.

I just wish he’d start saying “us” and “we”, like B-Roy does.

WOW

The only “they” he said was and i qoute “they drafted me”…. sounds alot better and smarter than “us drafted me” or “we drafted me”…..since when cant greg talk without being criticized

We'll remember B-Roy is from Seattle and the northwest has always been home for him, even in college. Portland and

Seattle are as close as any two major cities. I think he likes Portland.

This is only the most recent interview.
You’d also be hard pressed to find a bigger Oden fan than me. Just check my profile above…something about 20lbs.
I just want the guy to consider himself a vital part of his team.

"NOT TAKING CLASSES"

i feel better…… didn’t want him at no ninny school anyway.

The Faith don't panic, the faith freaks out, burns out farms, and torchs small villages in the name of The Faith.

You probably didn't know this...

but ‘ninny’ is short for pick-a-ninny or picaninny, which is an old derogatory term for black people. Had you known this, you probably wouldn’t have referred to Ohio State as a ‘ninny’ school. ;-)

I like Greg

I’ve never been worried about him. The key is not to expect much from him on the offensive end. If he learns how to stop fouling as much this year he’ll be one heck of a player, and he’s only 21!! He’s going to have a great career if he stays healthy. Offensive moves may show up with time but don’t be too disappointed if his offense resembles that of Ben Wallace.
