    Saw that coming a mile away. I feel bad for Mayor Kevin Johnson - he worked hard for the funding for the new arena.

    Maloof attorney says David Stern would support a move if this arena fails. Looking like Maloofs will announce move?

    The production quality is bad indeed. This is a very heated meeting. Wow Mr. Maloof is upset.

    George Maloof coming off as a major douche, good god. I feel bad for Kings fans. A lot of finger pointing and bad mouthing the city. I can't see how this ends but them relocating.

    From what I gathered, the city was asking the Maloof's and AEG to take on potentially $160 million of potential debt in year 1 if the city could not support the project out of its general fund. If that's true, I no longer feel sorry for KJ, and I question his ability to read a profit/loss statement.

    The owner of the Detroit Red Wings owns the Detroit Tigers as well.

    Stank Kroenke owns like every professional sports franchise in Colorado including the Nuggets.

    Why should Seattle be considered over Vancouver?

    Van has an arena -- Rogers Place Arena was renovated not too long ago.
