I'd been reading Field of Schemes religiously for a while back when there was more of a debate over whether the team should get a publicly funded stadium. I gave up reading it when I stopped writing about the merits of teams asking for $$ from public entities (I think we can all agree that everyone's opinions are fixed on this); thanks for the link, because now I have a good reason to continue to read it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7758702.post-65464454743308160542007-04-29T11:24:00.000-07:002007-04-29T11:24:00.000-07:00I don't know if you guys are onto this already, bu...I don't know if you guys are onto this already, but the Field of Schemes blog is doing some good coverage of the arena situation. Seems like Bennett is only one of many parties with a say in the future of the team.E.

He's ...How can anyone even remain hopeful anymore? He's issuing press releases about potential new homes, yet he won't grab a mike or hold a press conference to announce his "pursuit of a championship"?? Is he that much afraid of our local media? And, he actually feels the need to placate the good 'ol boys of OKC that his Vegas talk is just part of exploring potential homes?? Great way to endear yourself to the city where the team is actually still located. What a joke. <BR/><BR/>I really doubt now that this is just part of the dance, or as Margarita Prentice says, this is where the real negotiations take place. BS. It's plain as day, as Nussbaum wrote earlier, this thing is 100% straight out of "Moving your franchise for dummies" handbook. <BR/><BR/>What a stuffed-shirt COWARD. He's the type of guy that would rather hide in the corner office and send threatening e-mails rather than confront anything face-to-face. Congrats Clay.
