Sportsless in Seattle

So today my focus is on sports city or lack their of and that it is Seattle. I feel really bad for them right now because they recently lost thier basketball team, the SuperSonics. You can thank their greedy owner for that. Don’t worry guys you’ll get another team and suck even more just like Charlotte did. Some notable names who played in Seattle include Ray Allen, Dale Ellis, Horace Grant, Hersey Hawkins, Shawn Kemp, Gary Payton and Lenny Wilkens just to name a few. It’s sad that Seattle is being deprived of sports. What the hell is wrong with these owners. The NBA needs to put their foot down and stand for tradition as well as other sports do. So now what…the Oklahama Supersonics…..pretty crappy sound to it. Good God.

If thats not bad enough, thank you Seahawks for depriving your football fans of ever seeing Shaun Alexander in a Seattle Jersey again. He’s only 30 years old and had got 3-5 years left in him. I hope he comes to my team in Carolina and tears it up. Another dumb move. What else is new?

Then finally even though they are not to horrible but still stupid are the Seattle Mariners. When thinking about these other two sports teams I thought of all the guys that the Mariners have gotten ridden of or let slip awayand heres the list: Ken Griffey, Jr., Randy Johnson, Alex Rodriguez, Jamie Moyer, Freddy Garcia, Aaron Sele, and a few others. Just think of they all would have played together in their prime which would have been possible they would have a few championships. They would have been manager by one of the all time greats, Lou Pinella. It’s one of those things that you say, what might have been

Seattle is not the brightest sports town in the world in terms of who runs the teams. Their fans are great from what I hear but look all the names I mentioned on all three teams. Theres not a lot of sports towns that let that many greats slip away or let go. Who knows what will become of Seattle sports, but its going to be a long time before they are celebrated like they once were. Only time will tell if Seattle can recapture its glory.
