You don't think that Brent Barry is partial to Seattle?

Yes, but he also grew up in the city I live currently, and hour from Sac and his brother played for us, so it's not like hes doesn't understand our position either.
Don't really care either way though.

Wow, what a day. Now we can just care about basketball, and what happens on the court. No more uncertainty, no more cheap coaches, no more minimum payrolls, no more Maloofs. We can really start hoping for a successful team again. It feels so strange after all those years, that's really a great feeling!

Haha wow, Chris Daniels is on SERIOUS damage control right now.

The conference call was of the combined RELOCATION and FINANCE committee. But statement only addresses the prior. #NBAKings

The NBA RELOCATION committee voted unanimously to reject move. That does not include the FINANCE committee. #NBAKings

My Heartfelt Thanks to Mike and all the crew at crowndowntown.org
Mike you and all kings fans at crowndowntown were key in showing the City, the Mayor, the investors how much all of the kingsfans
really cared about our team, and the Mayors vision of a new arena.
All the time and work to show up for all the council meetings really helped keep things going on track
And thanks to my son-in-law Troy Bedal and My wife Pamm who helped the cause and showed up when I couldnt during my 80 hour weeks during tax season
I love this town and this team!!!!

Looks like I need to leave work early to meet downtown at 400 Broadway at News 10 at 6:00 pm
It may be some sort of crowndowntown rally? Sorry it is not confirmed just a text I just got from Pamm

It is amazing to me that so many in the national media seem shocked by this recommendation. Have they not been following Sac's side of the story at all? This decision isn't at all shocking..it's totally logical.
Quite a few dorks up north are hoping Ballmer and Hansen still buy the team and then out maloof the maloofs.

KCRA's Bienick reported the same thing. Unanimous vote 7-0 to deny relocation.

But it doesn't make much difference.
NBA is trying to say that they are denying moving the Kings from Sac, not that there was anything wrong with Hansen/Ballmer bid. It's just semantics but the bottom line is the same, the team will not move.

The purple has to stay, cause I've already got my purple Supras ready for opening night at Arco next season.

The plan was to wait until the vote was confirmed but I actually bought them last week because I knew the Kings weren't going anywhere. Nothing left now but to make it all official. Have I mentioned yet that I love all of you? Even the ones that get on my nerves sometimes. We're all Kings fans and we've all come out the other side of this together. That building is gonna be rocking next year! I already can't wait.
uggghhh! those are sick!

Is there such a thing as "Mayor for Life"?
Of course not. Nor will the lawsuits or any other cheap petty revenge tactics happen.
If these guys really want a team, they'll play the game by the NBA's rules. And I think expansion is likely around the same time the TV contract comes due. That way they don't "split" an existing deal, they add value to the next one.

The NBA was very tight lipped about this whole thing, they didnt even have to say anything today, for them to issue such a strong press release assures me that they have tightened up any loose ends and know that its only a matter of a couple weeks before the goofs are gone and vivek etc are in.
Great news
I checked this site at least 3 times and found no breaking news. Last Tim e at 1:58. At 3:25 my son called me from work to congratulate me. I came on this site again and about 6 moe pages were here. I found I missed the first report by about 2 minutes.
Very great news and thanks to all and happy birthday to Mike.

I think it'll be a while before New Jersey gets another team.
