Enjoy all-star weekend. Some Sonics fans are flying an airplane banner saying "Stop Clay [Bennett]- Sonics must stay! there tomorrow afternoon. If you think teams should stay put and respect the fans and would be willing to drop your team owner (the head of the relocation committee) an e-mail saying vote no on relocation or say the same to Stern we'd appreciate any support. Thanks.
Good luck with the reload after Shaq.

This whole Sonic's moving thing really pisses me off........unless they move to St. Louis that is.
No but seriously it pisses me off. I was introduced to the NBA by the Sonics. My entire childhood I watched The Glove throwing alley-oops to The Reign man. My friend two houses down was a huge Kemp fan, and as you all know I am a die-hard GP fan. As little kids we would run outside with our GP/Kemp stuff on and lower his hoop to about 6 foot and mess around all day long. Some of the best days of my life.....
When the Sonics lost to the Bulls in 96' we both ran outside at the same time and started crying in the streets.
I have never lived anywhere near Seattle, but I don't want them going anywhere. Leave the Sonics alone.

We embraced as well, I forgot to throw that in there.
That should help with the picture Lane.

ha, for some reason, mitchco, I've always thought you were at least 35 and up.

Alright mitchco I hear ya. 96 was great.
We got work to do to get out a complicated fix but we want to keep the tradition alive.
Personally I'd rather see expansion if new cities can support it over more musical chairs.

Haha really??
You went a decade too far. I don't know why I'm so surprised though, I have people think I'm 30 all the time. Shoot, half the people I work with just found how old I was and they still don't believe me. And I really shouldn't have said my "entire" child hood. It started when I was about 9 or 10.
You wanna talk about 35 and up? That's Lanette's little group. I hear he gets 10% off of adult diapers on the first Tuesday of every month.
P.S. Lanette, if you don't lock this soon I'm going to hijack it and turn into a bring back GP thread. HA!

Speaking of ducks....I hear you were around before ducks even evolved. That's gotta be weird.
