I look at it differently, you didn't see they started their TV deal talks already? The NBA wants us back, its just Sacramento did enough, fair enough for me. I personally like that, it means the NBA has learned from its **** ups in Seattle & Vancouver and now incumbent cities now get a fair shake, I think us in Seattle just now learned how the NBA works with things like this NOW.
Stern will always be the villain here, and its because of the way things went down from 2006-08, and I think he's fine with that. But this new commissioner in waiting, Adam Silver sounds like he wants to be the guy to bring the NBA back to Seattle and be Seattle's hero along side Hansen and the gang (IMO).
Don't give up just cuz we took an L, bro! Our day is coming, and I personally believe its coming later this year when the the TV negotiations are complete. They aren't going into these negotiations without Seattle in them, believe that! TV Negotiations are just the first step to bringing about expansion.

I want to get behind this at this point and time, but I just can't. I don't see the NBA coming, if ever for a very long time all the while the deal/arena plan that H/B/N developed will go by the way-side. Can dangit.....I can't wait any longer for an NBA team, I want one now and Stern ruined that for me!
Don't you get what this is? This dude is 5"1', bald at twenty-five, pays 300' dominatrixes to bellow insults at him while using whips to "punish" him for being a "bad little boy". With this "shots fired" post he has bent over and pulled his butt-cheeks apart and Vasolined up awaiting the gang-bang. Now I'm tellin ya'll--you want to be stayin the f away from THAT mess. Just leave it alone and the Bad Little Boy will go off and find some dominatrix-chubber porn to have a limp spasm to and leave us the f alone.TheIllusiveMan":1s4c7r2f said:Hello there Seattle.
How are you today? I'm sure you know by now and oh boy do your tears taste delicious. A little too salty though. I can see why, not only did you get chosen over by a superior market, but you have that constantly depressing weather up there to go along with the aura of mediocrity known as the city of Seattle. A town full of nothing but failure. So sad. Clearly the NBA sees the far superior value in California over Washington. California is superior in every possible category, and it isn't even remotely close. There's also the fact that we constantly dominate you in sports year after year. I'd be angry too.
Support your other teams so the same doesn't happen again. The saying is so true, silence is golden isn't it?
Suck it sore losers!
Shots fired.
Believe me there was plenty of hate for local civic leaders when the Sonics moved, but those guys aren't around anymore. 2) Once Stern's boofoo buddy Bennet got the Sonics it was all over - the arena plan was a total gouge that never would've been approved by local gov, which was Bennet's intention.CPHawk":3cu6p0p5 said:I understand the hate for Stern, he's a king douche bag, but why no hate for your own civic leaders in Olympia and Seattle who pretty much kicked Stern in the ass? You have to ask yourself, if only our local guys would have just shown they would try would the Sonics be gone? Right now I would bet good money Stern wouldn't have let the Sonics move had they just tried a little bit, hell the Sac group has an agreement for a new Arena that is as stable as RGIII ACL, and we offered at least double what the Kings are worth, and they aren't moving.

Stern is a human being (believe it or not) when a good friend of yours asks you for a favor you don't say no, especially when you make the favor at the cost of an enemy (seattle gov).
Clay Bennett was 100% guaranteed the next team available, if Schultz didn't sell it could have been SAC or MIL or NO
This is all Howard Schultz fault, no one on this forum should ever be caught drinking that Starbucks shit. Go to Seattle's best or go look at some boobies at a coffee stand. DO NOT SUPPORT SCHULTZ.

Oh, there's plenty of hate for the local and state guys that were involved, but Let's not even pretend the situations were similar.CPHawk":3gxzx768 said:I understand the hate for Stern, he's a king douche bag, but why no hate for your own civic leaders in Olympia and Seattle who pretty much kicked Stern in the ass?
