NHC - I went ahead and used it with credit to you, if you don't like just say so and I'll delete, all right?

I still laugh just typing it - "Do you like pie?"

What do we have to do to get Robert Sarver to sell the team?

I'm pretty sure 9 out of 10 suns fans would like to punchasize his face by now.

I would rather wake up with my head sewn to the carpet than to watch this team go nowhere.

Whats next for the suns... Rashard Lewis? Maybe we can sign him to 3yrs/62 million or something to secure our future

I'm thinking we could do a Telethon type thing with people pledging their nickels and dimes to raise enough to get rid of him.

My plan is - pledge whatever, but you don't have to come up with until we hit he magic number.

Yes yes... bravo.....I proposed a similar thought a few yrs back... its real simple... an IPO.... 3,000,000 shares available... $150 a pop. All the money goes into an interest bearing savings account till we reach the magic number...no risk to the investor. Then completely restructure the entire season ticket fan base and boot out 90% of the posers who occupy the good seats. Introduce a lottery for courtside/down low seats for shareholders. Bring back the $7.00 GA sections (yup... they had em... yup... I'm that old) make the NBA experience affordable again. ...pack the house... oh... and Hire Charles Barkley as the GM.

We'd be the Packers of the NBA.

I would gladly participate in the process, though my skill level is more in wildass ideas, promotions, and dancer management :eyebrows: .

Let's all ask when Robert Sarver will sell the team or what it will take to make him sell it.

Inundate the FO with message after message, all reading - "Why won't you sell the team?"

Frank - we'll announce the thing on the blog and then create an FBook page for it
