Judging by all the recent news everyone are encouraged to bring a napkin from home and exchange it with the person sitting next to them

Don’t expect 2-ply though

Everyone gets a $1 off concessions coupon

You just have to wait in line at the restroom and procure your napkin from the stall.

Please ensure to only take 1 so there will be enough for most people that want one to get one!

“Everyone make and bring your own friendship bracelets! Just like the Swifties, we’ll trade and charge up a Swift victory!”**

Woah there moneybags, let’s limit that to the first 2,000 fans

They say subway eat fresh on them too. I wonder where they got them

Sanitary napkins…

No…1 napkin per pair of seats. Fold it in half and share

I’m sorry I don’t have a square to spare

Brought to you by moda health, Alaskan airlines and Dundon capitol

Everyone (first 100 fans to arrive) gets a napkin

If they ask for a second napkin, you ask if they’re sure. 90% of the time they change their mind

Caleb Love not being on the bench with the guys over what I imagine is like \(10-\)15k over the entire series, max if that, is so stupid.

Even when these type of owners maintain a roster payroll that’s comparable to other teams, they still cut corners on basketball operations when it comes to coaching staff, front office staff, basketball analytics, scouting personnel, etc. that will affect the on-court product.

The worst probably is trying to pay the next Head Coach the salary of an assistant coach. The Blazers are screwed for the foreseeable future.

the 2 way players contributed to wins in the regular season too, they werent just stuck on the bench

Yikes. Hopefully it doesn’t become a long term issue, but I can’t see an NBA organization getting away with this for very long.

I’ve worked for my share of evil tech corps but I can say even they have never cared about small fish employees like me checking out late or getting reasonable room upgrades on business travel

nobody stingier than a billionaire i swear

It sadly makes sense why there are so many teams intentionally tanking to not have these extra playoff expenses, as frivolous as they are

The arena will also be dimlit for the full game. Fans are encouraged to bring candles

“Each seat will receive an assigned color image. Turn your brightness to the max so the upper level displays a sea of red with white text saying ‘WE <3 TOM DUNDON AND SUBPRIME LOANS’ #ripcity”

It’s a lot easier to get away with this penny-pinching in the NHL.

Yes, Dundon has famously tried his best to fuck that team up and they’ve succeeded despite him.

The Hurricanes lucked into RBA more than anything, if you actually look at the history of the Canes/Whalers pretty much all of their best years come with Rod either as a big part of their team or the coach himself. He coached ⁸⁄₁₀ of the top PTS% teams in Canes/Whalers history and Captain’d the other 2. As for Dundon he’s sucessfully tapped into the wine&cheese crowd in Raleigh and no one really complains since the Canes have been one of the most consistent teams for near a decade now. Dundon is also just not big into ancillary costs, although they spend to the cap ceiling every year.

Can’t remember the hurricane-specific issues. But early in his ownership, there were definitely liquidity and / or penny pinching concerns especially around the time he bought the spring football league and pretty quickly didn’t have money to run it

Heard it vibrates after every three pointer

Their owner is way too cheap for that.

Put a bird on it

Doesn’t Portland have like the most strip clubs or something? Portland knows how to party.

What is this, a crossover episode?

is it too late for tickets?

They all just start vibrating when the games over 

To some people, bilking the state via public funding is a sign that you’re a genius billionaire who deserves all the money. It’s not a bad look to these people as they’re actively celebrating the billionaires making off with even more money because they think it’ll trickle down any day now.

But if you’re poor, then you’re a welfare queen.

Game 3 of the pistons series last year in Detroit, we got “rally towels”. Would be my guess as to what’s cheaper than a t shirt

the Hurricanes not making a move this deadline wasn’t about penny pinching. There was only one position they were looking to upgrade and its a position 25+ teams in the league are looking to upgrade and with a short market of selling teams the prices were stupid.

Dundon has certainly penny pinched with other aspects of the Canes though.

It’s the gift that keeps on giving

She was required to sell it as part of Paul’s estate plan. Seahawks are next. Also required to be sold by the estate plan.

Paul’s will stated that the teams be sold and proceeds go to charities

in this day and age, anything less than shirts at a playoff game is considered cheap (or “poverty”)

It really feels like i’m one of the only blazer fans who doesn’t give a shit about whether there’s shirts or not. Other teams use rally towels and I don’t see people complaining about them. I hate the owners cheapness as much as the next blazer fan but the outrage of this is just to extra imo

pretty rich coming from a lakers fan, you from OC or something? 😂

Laker fan talking about the dirty needle problem in Portland while ignoring their own backyard smh

I dont live in the States anymore, but I think LA has some of the same issues as Portland
