...we used to have a fricking NBA team in Seattle! Man I'm missing the Sonics right now!

I was just reduced to watching "Throw Down With Bobby Flay" on the Cooking Channel for crying out loud. It was either that or the Lakers on ESPN and sorry but I still HATE the Lakers and the Jailblazers too for that matter. I should be watching Sonics basketball right now or listening to KC announce the game on the radio! Help me!

Remember the Rain Man


The X Man...Xavior McDaniel!


Bring back the NBA dammit!

The days after the last NFL game always gave me that "December 26" feeling. We did get screwed the way the Sonics left but there is a move afoot to get another franchise here. NBA Commissioner David Stern is only one of the many things that's wrong with pro hoops.

Sounds like they're shooting for an arena in Bellevue that will host both and NBA and an NHL team. Fair enough...they just need to get a team here and quick

I was never much of an NBA fan so the Sonics leaving didn't hurt too much. I love college ball so I have that to watch once the Hawks are done (to early!). Normally once Football is over though I start counting down the days until pitchers and catchers report. The best sport there is, baseball...

I couldn't agree with you more Robbo. We had a group of guys that bought season tickets every year from Lynden. I still can remember shouts of "Feed the Hawk", and "flying chickens in the barn yard". Great times. I can honestly say I have not watched an entire NBA game since they left. E

Haven't watched an NBA game since they left either. I used to try to go to at least a game or two a season and the rest of the time either listened to the games on the radio or watched them on the boob tube. Nice to plop down on the couch and catch the 4th quarter or a recap of the game...something...anything.

Looking forward to spring training also Ted. It'll be interesting to see what kind of team they put on the field this year. Hopefully Milton Bradley stays put in cell block C. Check out this flattering article featuring Milton. Shocker!
