    Very happy for all the fine people it will employ,not only the builders of the venue, but all the vendors, and restaurants,hotels,car rental agency's and sports bars that will prosper that the nay-sayers failed to factor into their anti-NBA/NHL blather. Thank you Mr.Hansen.

    Clay Bennett Leader of the Ownership Relocation Committe

    Clay Bennett being the leader or the relocation committe is laughable it just reaffirms the collusion between the Oklahoma group and the NBA when the Sonics were stolen.

    Now Sacramento can hate Seattle, as much as Seattle hates Oklahoma City.

    HATE........the gift that keeps on giving.

    "stealing teams"
    January 9, 2013 3:57 pm
    There is one huge difference in how Seattle would acquire a team and how Oklahoma got a team. Bennett and Schultz kept telling Seattle that they wanted to keep the team here, when they obviously didn't. They lied to the city. Hansen is not looking for a team and telling them that he won't move them. So, if Sacramento were to hate anyone for the team moving, it should only be the current owner who knowingly sells them to a guy who clearly says he wants them in Seattle. Very different than how our team was removed.

    That might apply in the blame game in Hanson's favor but the bottom line is we're getting a team at the expense of another fanbase's heartbreak. All you have to do is empathize to know what's going on here. Sacramento has some hardcore hoops fans down there. Hanson means well but after what happened to us Sonic fans just four years ago, I just can't get jacked about it. I was a Sonic fan starting back around '75 as a very young kid and bled Sonic green my whole life before finding out that the passion only goes one way. To them, fans are just dollar signs. The NBA will never be the same.

    It's a skill I don't possess and one I admire. Plus I miss the "feed the Hawk," the "get on that magic carpet and ride." and the fact that Olden Polynice and Benoit Benjamin impersonated NBA players here.
