So you'd be ok with a generation of uneducated maniacs running wild?Tequilla said:
Unless I've completely misread the entire proposed funding, none of the funding was going to be put in a position where the general population was going to be paying for it regardless of use. The public contribution was going to be all dependent upon those that would use the facility through taxes on tickets, etc. Simply put, if you don't want to pay taxes, then don't go to the arena. No change in anybody's lives as it is.doogsinparadise said:I want the Sonics back, and it's possible that this was the best deal that Hansen is willing to make, but property taxes are starting to get out of control as it is and where else are you going to get the money without an income tax.
As someone without kids (and I'm sure I'm not the only person on this bored in this position), I could argue that I'm pissed at some of the taxes that I pay to support educational initiatives because they don't directly impact me. Or, just as likely, I could complain about how much funding goes to furthering the arts given that I don't go to an art museum, a symphony, etc. But who am I say that my interests are better/worse than others. -
Seattle was a hockey town when the NHL had 6 teams. The Totems were a top minor team and the WHL had playoffs and shit. Vancouver, Oakland, and the rest of the West Coast.TTJ said:
I am a huge hockey fan. But bringing an NHL franchise to Seattle is fucking moronic. The NHL is already way over-expanded. It's failing in half the markets it's in. The NHL season is way too long, the tickets are way too expensive, the talent is way too watered down, and the league is in too many markets that (like Seattle) have no cultural affinity to hockey.Tequilla said:
More pissed at the fact that the NHL will not be in a position to comeTTJ said:Hi there. The NBA can eat a bag of dicks.
If the NHL had come here in 67 with the Sonics it would still be strong here

Seattle area has supported to WHL teams as long as I remember, be it in Suckattle, Kent, Tacoma, and Everett. The NHL could work.

I'm well aware. Seattle had become too pussified and they needed a more working class base.TTJ said:
