"The leading investor in the project hopes those supporters don't become disillusioned if it ends up taking five to seven years for pro basketball to return if Hansen's current arena proposal is approved by local lawmakers." Smokescreen.
Another perspective suggesting a Seattle bid vs. Sacramento bid endgame for the Kings in the near future. Includes some quotes from James Ham, speaking well on behalf of Kings fans.
Samueli agreeing to spend a great deal more money to get the Maloofs to file and the NBA to agree to it.
A bit of background from the Bee on Burkules the Hero. Hopefully he'll have the chance to make the Maloofs an offer they can't refuse.
This is somewhat encouraging, I think. At least Mr. Romani apparently has some good things to say on Sacramento's behalf at this point in the process. Go get 'em, boys.
now he's saying "I told you so." It could just be me, but it sounds like he's just trying to get credit where credit isn't due.
Economics professor/author David Berri uses his poor understanding of professional sports to clumsily and absurdly explain why the Kings may be leaving Sacramento. I don't even think the salary numbers he uses are accurate (at least, they don't agree with ShamSports nor with common sense), and the Maloof/Sterling comparison sounds like something straight from the SacBee comments section. But, I suppose Huffington Post is a pretty big deal, and he does talk a bit about Here We Stay, so you all should probably read it anyways.
