Seattle is Super Sonicless
I remember the good old days.........back in '79 when the Sonics won the championship. There were other good days too, Gary Payton and the boys. Looks like we'll be on the lookout for a new team. I hear the Spurs wanna leave San Antonio (kidding Lil'G)

Any of you locals (Seattlelites) care?

Dumb question from the dude who doesn't really follow about pro basket ball - are they moving or just folding?

They're moving to Oklahoma. A group from OK came in and bought the team a couple of years ago with no intention of moving them. And now, after a court battle they're gone.

Look for New Orleans or Memphis to move to Seattle in two years or less. What it will take is a better venue to play in. As soon as that happens you will see one of the two above mentioned teams in Seattle. It's all about the monay.

I was just POd about the politics and it seemed like the team was being held as ransom. "Build us a new stadium or we'll take our toys and leave"......bye bye!!!!

I remember the good ol' days in Key Arena...heck, I even remember the good ol' days of Jack Sikma and even Tom Meschary.

Enjoy Oklahoma boys......
