"It's been real"
Last week, it was made known that The Columbian would eliminate their Blazers coverage, meaning the release of one of our favorite beat writers, Erik Gundersen. Yesterday, Gundersen wrote his last article for them. His thoughtful analysis was always on-point and we know that his voice in the Blazers community cannot be replaced. We also know that it will not fall silent. Gundersen is a talent who will undoubtedly land on his feet to pursue bigger and better things.
I will no longer be working and/or posting things here. The Columbian is eliminating its original Blazers coverage and the blog will exist but it will mostly be idle.
