NBA team soon to be formerly known as the Sonics...

Huh? Clay said he wanted to keep the team in Seattle IF they build a new arena. He never said "I want to keep teh team in Seattle, period." There was always a condition. How a person could twist this around is beyond me...

 

did i hear it right today that they are deciding on outlaws or thunder as the name?

 

That is just some dumb newspaper poll...

 

that's what i like to hear.

 

Trust me it is not official so don't go back bustin'a gut to your Sonics homers...

 

Can't we just call them "The Oklahoma City Not Tulsa Team" or "The Team Formally known as the Seattle Supersonics"

 

How about just use a symbol?

 

I hope the team name is neither of those.

 

indeed. if it wasn't for the damn baseball team in cincinnati (and to a much lesser degree, liverpool) we'd have our team name.

 

The Reds? As a Liverpool fan, I can't disagree with that too much.

 

yeah, i dig oklahoma city reds. it's a beauty.

although gunners or arsenal would be just fine with me. atleast they're really original to the states.

 

Ugh.
