    Staying or going? Latest rumors, thoughts, etc.

    I'm starting this thread so we can end the duplication and cross posting that's going on in the current two threads. If we post ALL our thoughts, observations, etc. about the future of the Kings in Sacramento in this one convenient thread it will make things a lot easier. At least that's my hope...

    Carry on.

    Wait...in order to cut down on the duplication you are providing an opportunity for triplication?

    One more thing? If you're quoting something you read somewhere else, please be sure to include a link back so the rest of us can read it, too. There's tons of stuff floating around out there.

    Thanks again!

    Well, that might happen unless I close the other two threads.

    I dunno. Two threads are better than one.
    I appreciate a good math pun - as long as it isn't too graphic.

    I need to start an internet diet. All I do is refresh Sacbee.com every 5 minutes.

    It would seem to me that the Seattle group is buying complete ownership of the team. But wouldn't it be the case that a local buyer would only need to purchase the Maloofs' share assuming that current minority owners would elect to hold onto their portion?
    All over America, people keep on asking me for funky kingston.

    This is a very interesting thought! Whos to say that the current minority owners wouldnt elect to hold onto their shares if the team is sold to the seattle group?

    I am sure it is written into the contract that incase of sale the minority owners don't have a say about holding onto their shares.

    That would be a bit unusual. Who has the right to tell me whether I have to sell my investments whether I like it or not? What if I am making a loss or I simply do not want to sell. I wouldn't think it would be any different that owning shares in companies.
    Jim Capers once called a foul on me while I was sitting on the bench. Tweet! "Foul, number fifty-three! Five-three!" Everybody was confused and looking around for number 53, so I stood up and said, "I'm over here and the only thing I'm fouling is the water bottle." - Darryl Dawkins

    I remember reading last year that the city gets a 7% (I think) stake in the team if they move. Where does this 7% come from?

    An unconfirmed source with ties to George's barber also agrees.

    I have heard you say this before. I think that you are a yo-yo internet dieter.
