    Speaking of the BOG vote, I'm guessing PA will be in favor of relocation this time?

    it would suck for the sacramento fans if they moved to Seattle but at least that eliminates the possibility of us moving there

    I seem to remember only Allen and Cuban were the only owners that voted against the move. I don't see why Allen would vote against if he wanted to move the blazers to Seattle.

    I think Paul voted against it for a variety of reasons. He's from Seattle, he knows how the league hosed over Seattle and didn't want to happen here and most importantly he owns the Seahawks and he ain't no dummy.

    PapaG, other than the Port of Seattle/Longshoremen, who have you heard doesn't want a 3rd stadium down there? It's not like Occidental is booming, right?

    The Mariners have voiced their opposition. I think West Seattle councilmembers are also concerned, particularly with viaduct construction ongoing and funneling many busses exclusively down 1st avenue.
