In walks Bezos

Oh great RW3 is gonna buy them..damn we can't get rid of this guy...

 

[Cyrus12]

In walks Bezos

Here's hoping...I'll keep buying shit on Amazon if he does..

 

[BlueTalon]

Smells like warm speculation.

 

[MyrtleHawk]

I actually like the idea of the Seahawks going the Packers' route and being a community-owned team.

 

[TwistedHusky]

Bezos is not from Seattle. There is little reason for him to want the Hawks.

I can see why he would want the WFT, but I would be very shocked to see him even put in even a test offer for the Hawks.

Trailblazers are up for sale also...interesting

Nothing is eternal, as a Hawks homer, I am praying the new owner will be as good as Paul.

 

[TwistedHusky]

No owner will be as good as Paul was. Paul was one of the top owners in the league for almost a decade.

We have to just hope:

1 - We can keep them

2 - They don't turn them into the Mariners (or worse, the Sonics)

 

[AROS]

In walks...

 

[Chuckwow]

I was led to believe that Paul had it in his will that the team could be sold but never moved. Is that not accurate?

 

[JayhawkMike]

Will you follow the Hawks if the move to St Louis?

 

[Ruminator]

Will you follow the Hawks if the move to St Louis?

I am about as interested in the Oklahoma Thunder as I am a piece of lint in my neighbor's dresser drawer. So for me, any Seattle team relocating would essentially erase most if not all of my interest in them. But that's just me.

This article seems to give a bit more information on the situation of Paul's Will. https://sports.yahoo.com/seahawks-sale-soon-nfl-source-194023262.html

I don't think Jody wants to let the Hawks go to someone else. I could see them selling off the Trailblazers and Jody keeping the Seahawks.

Same here. I'm most interested in knowing how exactly to go about making that happen.

 

[pittpnthrs]

Its inevitable. Jody has no interest in the team. Its why she's letting Pete run the whole show. The Seahawks will be better off if they are sold.

 

[JayhawkMike]

Sell the team to Howard Schultz and see how that turns out?

 

[TwistedHusky]

That would actually be crazy if the Hawks moved to St. Louis but we got the Sonics back (expansion team not back from OK).
