within the Suns organization, from staffers to arena personnel. The latest story coming out has put Sarver on the Donald Sterling level of despised owners. Anyways, here's what I have heard.

As some of you may know, Rich Howell passed away a few weeks ago, he was the equipment manager for the Suns from 98-06. He also happened to be well-liked and was the brother-in-law to Jerry Colangelo. Apparently there was supposed to be a small memorial service a few hours before the Lakers game in Phoenix to honor Howell within the arena with friends and family present, Jerry even supposedly called Sarver and asked for a personal favor for this event.

Sarver shot it down and refused to let the memorial happen. Needless to say, this has left a lot of people upset within the Suns organization, especially those who were around when Howell was with the team.

I don't really get insider information on players, but I do get information on the happenings within the organization at the very least. This is just to give some fellow Suns fan posters a general idea of how things are going within the Suns organization, i.e. not very well.

If that's true, that's disgusting. It's one thing to be an ****, it's another to sink to that depth. While I really hope what you said isn't true, sadly, I must believe it is. I've heard rumblings about Sarver and none of it.... I mean NONE of it.... is any good. I sure miss the Colangelo days. The man was adored by the community and for very good reason. Maybe our next owner can take after ol' Jerry and not Bob.
