I don’t know where you animosity comes from. Perhaps you are a little frustrated that your city is being use as a pawn to achieve an arena deal in Seattle. I can understand why you don’t have a better understanding of the situation in Seattle, but these shouldn’t be any of your concern anyway. OKC needs to begin work on its own arena solution. You will probably be hosting a franchise within a couple of years and all you have is an inadequate hockey arena (I guess for your pretend NHL team).

Those in OKC lusting for the NBA shouldn’t not feel too disheartened though, as part of the deal, I’m sure you’ll finally get the expansion franchise you’ve been pining for or perhaps the Hornets or Grizzlies.

I know you guys are really fond of that word up there. Show me a link where someone has offered to donate a stadium that’s been turned down, I’ll make it easier for you, show me any arena proposall that includes how it will be funded.. Wait I’ll make it easier, show me a link to any new arena proposal other than Bennetts. Thanks for playing,. You come back again and see us real soon.

As a sports fan I think that stealing a 40 plus year old franchise is the lowest thing anyone could do. By the way, I see a lot of focus on the city of Seattle and State Legislature. You need to dig a little deeper and you will see that numerous groups have stepped up and offered Bennett gravy deals (donated land & stadiums) and he has turned them down….hmmmm, sounds like a good faith effort to keep the Sonics where they belong. How about Bennett being a man and taking his expansion team and moving forward. Congrats on all of the fine NBA talent coming out of your area…oops, my bad.
