    Can we tell Seattle that they don't get another NBA team because they're part of our market now? Please tell me we can. I want to see the stuck up Seattlelites crying about how they're bigger and better than Portland.

    This is why I don't get people from here being Seattle sports fans (I'm guilty of this by being a casual Mariner fan), those teams will be what ever keeps us from getting our own. It's a joke smaller places like Cincinnati, Kansas City, St. Louis, Pittsburgh, etc have more teams.

    We are bigger and better than you. Just deal with it. Am I doing this right?

    There is something very interesting about this, that we will all find out about in a few weeks. No joke FAMS. Found out last month and there should be a press release mid to late October.

    Hot damn! Single A is the way to go! No big egos and the prices are reasonable for families!

    There will be a press release stating that HCP and Marazul both love watching the BBC.

    Hillsboro has a Single A team, so I guess that makes Portland Hillsboro's little sister city.

    I do believe the tag is right: Baseball is a religion.

    Thinking about this.....

    Our only real threat is Vegas if baseball wants a pacific time zone team. I fully would expect Vegas to get the team in the end.

    Would be sweet if we tore down the Memorial Coliseum and built a new baseball stadium though.

    I swear, I don't even care at this point.... MLB or NHL or NFL... just get me another pro team. I'm so sick of the NBA.

    I like the NBA more than any of them, personally. I'd love MLB here, but having been a Braves fan for close to 30 years, they'd likely always be my 2nd team. NHL, meh, I'd pay more attention, and root for them, but would prefer MLB or NFL. And NFL just aint happening.

    Agreed on MLB or NFL..... pass on NHL for me. I'd rather watch a Timbers game and i dislike Soccer.
