This sucks on so many levels. Kings fans were loyal for years. The whole area around the arena, formerly sheep meadows, was built up when the team got good; those local businesses will suffer. The Blazers will have even more travel. And isolated in their corner of the country, the league may decide to just contract them so other teams won't have to travel out to the area where there is only one team. I personally will lose another 1-2 games a year that I can go to. Going to games at the Warriors arena is awful, they do everything possible to keep fans from having fun. Kings staff is great. The arena is not state of the art but it's clean. Staff are friendly and helpful. I get surveys from all the arenas I go to and every year I rate Sacramento the best. The food sucks but at least there is a variety of bad food. It's the only arena where fans can still take pictures and get player autographs. Another small market team loses out so LA can get a 3rd string basketball team. Pause while crandc says a lot of unprintable words that don't belong on a family site like S2.
Agreed. You should acknowledge the historic wrong done to the Kings and give them the Larry O'Brien trophy that year. Only then can you move on with a clear conscience. Oh, and drop K*be off at the gates of the the CaƱon City State Prison in Colorado to begin serving his sentence for rape.
We should just move all the teams to either LA, Miami, NY, Boston or Chicago. At least that way the league could quit with their bullshit spin on everything and just get it over with.
On a serious note, if he did rape her she would've stuck by her guns and fought for true justice in court.
STFU, asshole, the woman was raped and moved to 4 different states in succession due to death threats. Anything she got after being intimidated into not testifying she fucking deserves. Do you fucking rape apologists HAVE to make a thread about the Kings moving into yet another fucking rape apology? You must LOVE the Congress, who still have a bill pending that would declare about 70% of rapes to be not-rape (so the women can be forced to give birth to rapist babies). Why don't you go get castrated and give your balls, that is if you have any, to Kobe for lunch and get your irrelevant shit off this thread?
I don't post here often and don't know Mamba, but that was some seriously out of line bullshit from him. Nice job putting this back in the real world Crandc.
