    There is no 'Sonics' right now.

    Howard Schultz is an idiot.

    Go Chris Hansen...build us a new arena.

    I want my NBA and NHL.

    Howard Schultz IS an idiot. He was such a fair-weather owner when he had his shitty hands all over that franchise. He'd be pouting when they were lousing and cheering when they were winning. Damn him. :x

    Howie only cares about how much money he can make...too bad Paul Allen didn't want to buy another team.

    A Sonic's fan rooting for OKC is like Walter taking care of his ex-wife's Pomeranian at the bowling lanes while she's off in Honolulu with another guy.

    Just let it go ...

    no, they didn't everything that has the 'sonics' on them Seattle owns, the championships are ours. OKC didn't get anything, just the players. Last time I was at the Key, they were still hanging up.

    Yeah, Seattle owns everything "Sonics". Which makes me wonder, did the Sonics retire any numbers that might still be hung in the Key?

    I'm thinking Kemp and Payton, and maybe Tom Chambers?

    Greg Nickels is an idiot...that's why he lost for his 3rd term.

    Some great names there dc

    When I enjoyed my extended stay in Seattle a few years ago, I felt the pain that the fans are going through. This must be tough for them right now. F the Thunder, F Howie, F the Thunder again.
