Who cares? OK City is enjoying the "Sonics" more than Seattle ever did. Even when the Mariners win, you can hear a pin drop in the 4th inning.
Wait til the Seahawks aren't winning. People will give tickets away. The "fans" will wear their Bierkenstocks to Starbucks and drink their lattes on game day.
We had a quasi, temporary boycott of Starbucks after the Sonics moved to OKC. Now there are literally 4 Starbucks within a half mile radius in my hometown so our commitment level can certainly be questioned.
The Huskies are starting to gather a following again after a 15 year run of futility. Speaking of 15 years, that's how long it's been since the Mariners made the playoffs, the longest drought in MLB, and not sure they're any closer, even with the addition of Segura. He won't hit at Safeco. Only Ichiro, Edgar, & Boone have!
If Piniella gets elected on the Today's Game ballot, it will be a party in Seattle. He is a God here in the PNW!
