I'd casually follow them and start rooting for the next local team ( Warriors). For me, the Kings are Sacramento's team, a team that represents the town where i live. If they move, it just won't be the same. I can't imagine rooting for the Anaheim Kings or the kansas City Kings. Just my honest opinion.
I would never follow them again and dump the NBA for the most part. I would still keep tabs on what is going on in the NBA and watch some playoff games here and there, but I would never be a hardcore fan again. No jersey purchases, no season tickets, wouldn't attend a game, and certainly wouldn't spend time pondering and posting about a team on a forum like this one.
I used to LOVE the Lakers haha.. I had my starter jacket (two of them, one purple and one black) back in the day. The chicks would wear the white ones so I didn't get that one heh. I was a die hard fan up until about 1990 when there was so much Kings stuff goung around in Sac that it was only natural for me to start liking the Kings. Now I hate the Lakers.. Go figure..
I was going to pick "Repeatedly threaten suicide" but that was a little too harsh 
I would follow them OF COURSE!
I missed most of this last season due to a lot of factors and there was a part of me missing. This season is going to be different due to my work schedule and new place so I will be back into die hard status soon.
I is and would be hard without the Kings...

Hey, what's the date we're supposed to hear about the developments? November? I remember its under a 180-day process, but forgot when that started...
Side note, anybody who knows/follows the business of private developers: what are the odds that they'll invest in something like this, with consideration to the ongoing recession?

This Cal Expo expansion/new arena discussion deadline would be up in November since it began in May. Recently, there has been talk that a progress report could be issued in January 09 with the possibility of extending talks if necessary for another 6 months past the original deadline.
Risk is not only for any developer who "could" take it on, but the bank who "might" fund it. Unfortunately, this is not exactly the best economic climate (to say the least) to get such a gigantic privately funded project off the ground.

The global financial situation doesn't make anything fall through. In fact, it might actually make it easier in the long run for things to get done.
The Kings aren't going to pull out of Sacramento at this point. In fact, their new home uniforms boldly say "SACRAMENTO" on the front. I don't think it's an accident.

The current economy is resulting in deflation. 3.30 gas as opposed to 4.10? I'll take it every day . Developers may be able to throw out offers of 400 million and try to make it work. Lots of people need jobs in construction, they may take a 15$ an hour job instead of $22 as normal just to keep the kids fed, and costs of materials should be less.
Overall the economy is correcting itself and pushing the astronomical costs of things back down. This is a good, though not yet great, time to field offers for an arena. About a year from now would probably be the best time to begin building, I hope they pounce while the iron is hot.

The Kings are my team. I will root for them wherever they play. I pray that this will ALWAYS be here, so that I can see them in person. However, if they go, there won't be another team here to replace them anyway, so my loyalty would follow them (rather then some other cities team who happens to be geographically close) Their leaving would be a bitter failure on the part of Sacramento.
