Listened to sports radio on the way to work and the latest is that the finance/relocation committee is meeting via telecon today and will then spend...
I tell you, the thing that rubs me wrong are the statements that Seattle/Seattle fans didn't step up to the plate and because they didn't support it...
Right on -- the difference is that fees incurred at the arena are the SOLE mechanism of public contribution. Hockey-hating, basketball-scroogin',...
The point is that $100M in renovations were thrown at the Key -- that's a lot of coin. Taxpayers were sold on the idea that it was a long term...
Wrong - when Shultz was trying to get a new arena, Key Arena was approx. 10 years old. He sold the team in 2006, after failing in an attempt to get...
The public contribution on the new Seattle arena is solely paid through taxes/fees on the events that occur at the arena. It's a pretty clever way...
Seattle has financed baseball, football/soccer, and now possibly basketball arenas recently. I actually think basketball arenas make the most sense...

Any bets on whether the finance/relocation committee recommendation is made public? I'm guessing no announcement of it is made by the NBA, but that...
Is there one of those in Portland too? Seattle has one in Fremont for Solstice...most of the naked riders look like you guys and that is not a good...
Kind of funny, but Seattle talk radio dudes keep bringing up Cousins as a reason to hope the Kings stay in Sac and Seattle gets an expansion team....
Maybe if I used "GOGGLE" like you, I'd be all right.
Lol I got 12 out of 13 because I said that suntan lotion stops x-rays. I'm hoping everyone gets that it was a typo/bad click.
Shooting from the hip, I'd say Dan was the #1 all time poster on BLT. Lol I had to switch to digest format to keep it under control.
Crandc was there too. Dan/hap. Ed. Can't remember who else has been linked to those days. Getting the group meeting with Trader Bob was definitely a...
