No mistakes in the tango, Donna. Not like life. Simple. That's what makes the tango so great. If you make a mistake, and get all tangled up, you just tango on.....

Please feel free to elaborate as to how we can seek revenge on Seattle.

Or should we just do all of the awful things that Seattle did to Oklahoma City? Well, maybe not all of them, we’re not savages.

I often think before I type things, and then sometimes I don’t type them. Other times, I read them on the screen, and realize how utterly stupid and worthless the words are, and click “cancel.”

This may have been one of those "cancel" times.

Sorry, I usually love your stuff.

Well, as long as someone can give me a practical way to teach Seattle a lesson should the Kings move there.

We trick Boeing into moving their corporate offices to West Sac

That’ll teach ’em.

I think we'd have to trick Boeing to move those outta Illinois first.

300 Million in lease payments is alot cheaper than the 450 million to move a team

Darko Milicec passes just as well as Vlade Divac... Vlade would be the first to tell you that

Good point

I was under the impression the fee was $300 million

But when I search, the only figure I can find is thirty million. Is there someplace where the official figure has been published?

I cant seem to find it as well. I just came to the conclusion it was the 450 because it was thrown around here like it was fact so much. From what I found it cost the Sonics 30 Million to the NBA, plus another 15 Million for breaking their lease at their arena. When the Hornets moved, it was only 15 Million. Why the difference? I couldn’t find out. Sounds like the fee is based on the situation and not a set amount.

Note to self, don’t believe everything you hear on the internet
