I'm sympathetic, and I signed the petition (I just don't think it will do any good). I don't believe in conspiracy theories regarding this potential move, but I think that they should live up to the promise of at least three seasons in Vancouver before allowing Heisley to throw in the towel. But nobody in the NBA asked me what I thought. I do think the lawsuit and the Hunt the Owner thing is a bad idea and will only serve to make matters worse. Those folks should tone it down a notch (especially since their lawsuit has zero chance of succeeding). ------------------ Houston Sports Board The Anti-Bud Adams Page
It will be nice not to have to travel up to canada as often to play.I'd like to see the grizz in NO. ------------------
I signed because I remember as if it was only a few months ago what it is like to possibly loose your team to another city. Besides Dickey_Simpkyns is right its the least we can do after taking Francis from them! ------------------
I hate to deny anyone the pleasure of rooting for hometown basketball. I signed it. ------------------ "We got f*cking smashed every day.

I signed. Vancouver deserves a chance to support a decent team. No city would have done any better supporting their teams.
I guess you're right... I'm going to sign, too. Vancouver should at least have a fair chance to prove its worth regardless of the eventual outcome. ------------------ Why is it that everytime BC defeats a major conference opponent, that opponent promptly goes on a losing streak?

I will sign...because I would love to move to Vanny...and if I ever get the opportunity...it will be the only way to see the Rockets play live without driving to Seattle. Besides...theres lots of Rockets fans in N.O. that might be converted to Grizz fans should they move...we dont want that! Not to mention the fact that the cajuns have never even seen a bear except at the zoo. They would have to change the name to the Crawfish or somethin...thats no good. ------------------
Besides, once Kung-fu karl retires, the Jazz will suck. Hopefully, their revenues will decline and they'll have to sell the team. Then they could move BACK to NO. Wouldn't that be GREAT? *grins visciously* of course, then I'd have to find a new team to hate. I know... back to Seattle! ------------------ Why is it that everytime BC defeats a major conference opponent, that opponent promptly goes on a losing streak? PS. Notre Dame sucks
