I lettered in high school but rejected the jacket. I think my mom kept my letter somewhere...

Honestly, I don't care if they stay or if they go. I tend to not watch sports and even I know they're pretty terrible.





and...What did you letter in bro? I'm guessing B'ball? Maybe football?
 
Spizz I hear a lot of people clamoring for the team to stay, which shows some fan support, but if the support was that great why would they want to leave? Whats the real story over there?

Good Ol'boys from Oklahoma, finagled our team by "promising to work on keeping them in Seattle". They made demands they knew the city wouldn't budge on. They knew they would be able to move the team if they played it right. The Good Ol'boys (Clay Bennett, Aubrey McClendon, etc,) overpaid for the team aswell.

With the current lawsuits its' looking grim. I believe the Howard Schultz "Buyers Remorse" Lawsuit may be the key. Doubtful they'll be able to break the lease.

They leave and i'm done with the NBA, only thing i'll be watching for is Fantasy bAsketball hehe No more video games, apparel, and items displaying NBA logos.

The future looks bright though...We have a good chance of getting the #1 pick again...We have Durrant, Jeff Green, and may get Beasley or someone...Add a few veterans and the Sonics will be a real threat, real soon....


Beasley??? You've forgotten Derrick Rose, and Jared Bayless those guys will go #1 and #2 to Onion's Heat...:D.

Blah...I think Kevin Love will be better than those two....Am I pretty much alone here? No one cares that they are leaving us? I am still sad that the Montreal Expos lost their team to Washington D.C....
 
i feel for ya bro... broke my hear when hornets went down to NO.... Its better over here.... teams get sold but keep location, or city at least....
