SO they didnt want to relocate the kings to Seattle

I agree, met some nice folks in Washington state, but the nicest I've come across were in Texas as well. The first time I spent a week in Texas, I damn near stayed.

Lived in Florida for almost 3 years and all I can say is that there's a reason the craziest news stories almost always begin with the words "A Florida man..."

Now, this shit starting to piss me off!

That's two of you said that.

What's up with all these nice people in Texas giving assholes like me a bad name!

Tacoma is though. My god that place is horrible.

Tacoma massively > Seattle. The NBA fans deserve a team but Seattle doesn't deserve a team and should be designated for demolition.

There must be some reason the sonics left? Lack of fan support? Fans would not help pay for new arena?

You lost credibility on that one. Tacoma is a sure-fire dump. I'd rather get full blown AIDS than live in Tacoma.

Sad thing is with all the nasty needles laying around the city of Seattle it's not to hard to catch some nasty disease. Seattle is a hell hole.

Politics is why the Sonics left. They had/have plenty of fan support, they just made it impossible for fans to get there nor allowed any potential owner to make any money off a crappy outdated arena.

Might want to look earlier in this thread - there are worse cities.

There are probably worse cities Seattle is intentionally becoming a shitty city while Tacoma is cleaning itself up. Tacoma > Seattle.

Yeah.....don't care. This clearly means a lot to you, so have at it.

I feel OP's pain simply because I live in Seattle. Sacramento's a dump and they are indeed the worst run franchise in the NBA.

I dont know as long as the Knicks are still a team with Dolan running them I feel like they win that "honor"

Puyallup is sweet too, every recreation you could possibly want in a 30 mile radius, the whole south sound is amazing while the other side of the sound are trying to implode themselves. Either way, the mayor of Seattle has essentially given the finger to the NBA and NHL with our arena deal and it's infuriating while he is begging for more money from the state to his city.

Seattle has more suicides than anyone else in the country. My God it rains every day and the sun never comes out.

[thunderc]

Seattle doesn't even crack the list of trashiest cities in Washington.

Good argument.

Orlando has more rain fall than Seattle. Also drugs are far worse in just about every city in California. California should be nuked, just after Oregon stadium of course.
