@thevaguequeen Had similar experience when I moved back. Odd system.

@smileyj80 @jwhittenbergK5 Sure they do. They just play their home games in Calgary and Winnipeg.

@jwhittenbergK5 You should try researching this yourself instead of using AI. Atlanta doesn’t have NHL.

Here's why Seattle is a sports town...
If the Sonics return, Seattle will be one of 12 U.S. cities to have teams in the NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL and MLS.
Atlanta, New York, L.A., Miami, Chicago, Denver, Boston, Dallas, Philadelphia, Minneapolis, Washington D.C...and Seattle.
🏀Add the WNBA...and it's 7.
Atlanta, New York, L.A. Chicago, Minneapolis, D.C...and Seattle.
⚽️Add the NWSL...and it's 4
New York, L.A., Washington D.C. ...and Seattle.
🏒Add Women's pro Hockey... and it's 2.
New York and Seattle.
Need one step further… add pro Rugby.
Only one City remains…. Seattle has them all covered.
Seattle is a sports town. ✊

During trip I asked @SoundTransitCEO if there is a world he can imagine where light rail doesn’t make it to Ballard and West Seattle, and he said no.

@dannyoneil @CAlmanza1007 So Bennett saying he sincerely wanted to make it work in Seattle was … a lie all along? So it didn t matter what Seattle did or didn t do for him? I for one am shocked.

Just wanted to let @CAlmanza1007 know I truly appreciated this.
I worried that the unrepentant hating we've heaped on that franchise had gone unnoticed.
Glad to know you're all so soft you want someone to say sorry.

Will “GIVE the Sonics back their history”??!!
What the…
The Thunder HAVE TO!
Those are the terms of the NBA agreement and the city settlement of the KeyArena lease trial I covered in 2008.
Let’s be clear: OKC won’t be doing Seattle and the Sonics a favor. #HowSoonTheyForget
NBACentral@TheDunkCentral
The Oklahoma City Thunder will give the Seattle Sonics their history back if the NBA grants Seattle an NBA team, per @espn “Sources said if a team was to return to Seattle, the Thunder would cede the Seattle history back to the SuperSonics — just as the NBA’s Charlotte Hornets reclaimed the Charlotte-era history of the New Orleans Pelicans when Charlotte switched from being the Bobcats to the Hornets in 2014.” (Via es.pn/3MLB2SO)

The #Sounders trailed the Whitecaps in possession, shots, and touches in the opposing half in the first leg - but the Rave Green took the scoring chances that were given to them and turned them into a roaring victory.

@EssexJP_TV @seattletimes Yeah, thought for sure he d be relocating to Oklahoma City. They love him there.

@seattletimes No Schultz story is complete without detailing him selling Seattle's NBA basketball team to people who were sure to take it out of town. #sonicsgate

A judge denied a TRO sought by a conservative podcaster, radio host and fellow at a think tank to force the Washington House of Representatives to give them press credentials. The House said they were advocates in the political arena, not journalists. apnews.com/article/press-…

Honest question: Should there be transparency about what college athletes are paid?

Unlike in St Paul, a reporter-led organization in Olympia decides who receives credentials to enter the floors of House and Senate. They don't want to do it anymore.
