Sonics Taskforce Meets

(From multiple sources):

Rep. Mike Hope of Lake Stevens, Wa. stated via press release Tuesday that the Sonics Taskforce held its first meeting on Monday, exploring various funding and location options for an NBA/NHL arena to be located in the Greater Seattle area. The task force is a bi-partisan group of elected officials, with the goal of finding a way to create a new home for an NHL or NBA franchise. Per Rep. Hope:

Funding professional sports teams is not the responsibility of the tax-payers. We will only move forward with a plan that benefits our economy, adds revenue to our cities and brings new opportunities to WA State without costing the tax-payers money.

Parse away.

Name That Sonic

I don't think I'm giving you a spoiler to say that this fellow was definitely not active for the post-1980 Seattle Sonics, am I? Another beautiful work of art from every Sonic fan's favorite artist (non-digital division!), Stu Moldrem. As always, leave your guesses in the comments.

H-O-R-S-E: Fred Brown v Brian Winters

With the draft on tap for tonight, I'm sure you're as fascinated as I am by ...

Wait, what? A Fred Brown v Brian Winters HORSE matchup, with Don Criqui on the mike, classic late 70s graphics, and a classic CBS soundtrack in pure, unadulterated low-fi? Oh, yes, please.




You'll have to stick around for a few minutes to see the champion, but we all know the real winner is Mr. Winters' moustache.
