BFT Show: Joth Ricci, Chris Dudley

John Canzano is in discussing the Rip City Forever campaign that launched today to try and make sure that the Trail Blazers stay in Portland. Canzano discusses if building a new arena is vital to keeping the Blazers in Portland or if renovations would be enough. Canzano wonders if fans of the Blazers should be worried about the Blazers potentially moving. President of Burgerville, Joth Ricci, and former Trail Blazer, Chris Dudley, join the program to discuss the Rip City Forever campaign that launched today. The campaign is focusing on keeping the Trail Blazers in Portland with the upcoming sale of the franchise. Ricci and Dudley say that the new owner will more than likely not be local to Portland and that they want the city to be prepared just in case something crazy happens. Ricci talks about whether the Moda Center actually needs to be torn down or just renovated. Dudley says that the franchise needs a new owner who is energetic and cares.
