As long as he's having fun, the amount of money he loses on the Blazers is irrelevant. Obviously, he isn't having that much fun anymore. Why blame Whitsitt if Allen told him to win at any cost? Did Allen buy his Yachts to make a profit? No, they are more like a hobby to him, just as the Blazers are/were. They make it sound like he has sacrificed for the good of the team and the city all these years. It's not a sacrifice if it's what you enjoy. To right his own ship, he should either open up the purse strings again or sell the team. Paul Allen can spend his money on anything he likes.
