Yes anything can happen... but we've provided a motive and a method by which it could happen. It's not like we're saying "hey maybe this season Ivanans will win the scoring title" or something, while possible, implausible enough to be impossible. Yet the responses have been tantamount to sticking your fingers in your ears and shouting "lalalalalala I can't hear you lalalalalalala".Quote:

I think the whole KC thing is just alot of people are bored.K C needs a team, Las Vegas needs a team, and they probable will get one, but not the Kings. We've already had 1 expirement likes this, anybody around here heard of Al Davis? I still thing he's tryin to figure out a way to get back here. No way a team leaves the 2nd biggest tv market in the states. Not even the "lowley" Kings. Does anyone remember the hype that was surrounding us in the '92 season. My God man, the Stanley Cup finals here in LA.( I know it feels so long ago) We get back into the playoffs and ownership won't be complaining about "breaking even, or losing money". I remember Bruce saying that he needed to get the team into the first round to make money, helloooooo! Sometimes you have to spend money to MAKE money!
Something tells me other teams' message boards during the off-season aren't rife with drama over teams being relocated based on exactly nothing in the actual world. Especially when that possibility was started over a random conversation between people who have NO direct knowledge of this possibility ever coming to pass. There are a lot of ways to pass the time, whatever floats your boat... :monster2:Quote:

They have a lease with the city!!!". Well nobody has been able to show the agreement with the city and we have repeatedly, and calmly, shown that it absolutely could happen and would make sense if you take for granted a few assumptions.Quote:

The more things change the more they stay they same. I took a year off from this place, and the good DR is still making friends. All we need is Neil,Taffinations and Karma orgies.
good times
