    I understand the ownership is having a tough time at the KEY but there has to be another alternative to moving the team out of the Puget Sound area.

    Yeah the T-birds leaving Seattle would suck, but how long can they continue to operate in a facility that obviously does not want them there?

    It would suck if the dirty birds left the US div. I wouldn't imagine they have enough stroke to get a new arena. But how can they continue to pay the highest rent and the Sonics get first choice on prime nights?

    Default There are a lot of people

    There are a lot of people who predicted that the inception of the Everett franchise would lead to the demise of the Seattle team. In the article it states how Bill Yuill was breaking even (some years making a little, some years losing a little) with the same agreement that is in place now. It seems just enough fans have migrated North to make that "losing a little" and every year occurance with no help in site.

    Personally I think the team could benefit from a move. Either to Mountlake Terrace, Bellevue or OLympia.

    Olympia doesnt sound like a bad option. Do they already have the facilities there?
