Have to agree. Prefer Steelheads or even Chinooks if it's going to be a salmon species.

Neither is football.

And they tend not to be fans of the slow pace and unwritten rules of baseball, or the whining and diving in basketball and soccer.

13 miles from downtown Seattle, about 13 miles from Bellevue, and 22 miles to Tacoma.

Let's say they do prefer Sodo... wonder how much influence they really have as its a privately funded arena? If public money is involved, sure they're all involved and talking it to death for years.
But a private investor spending his own $$ on his own land? In combination with the city fast tracking it?
