    If they do.....they should try to make the Max Attendance 21050 in honor of Timmy and David. If possible, have 44 suites (2 levels of 22) in honor of Ice.

    No... Max attendance should be like 60-80K. People from around the world will want to come see Wemby. The seats will sell out and even nosebleeds will be backlogged just to get in. Sort of like Lambeau Field with the Packers.

    Love that phrasing. Should probably read: Spurs looking for handout from SA taxpayers knowing they have Wemby leverage.

    As much as I detest Seattle I'll always give them credit for doing the right thing and saying no. A time when liberals had backbone.

    I mean building a new arena downtown is a no-brainer obv, but if we have to wait til 2032-33 to get it, it’ll be a lot less exciting. Wemby will be 30 by then and who knows what the NBA landscape will look like by then or if Wemby’s even still playing or playing here tbh. Should try to break the lease and get this thing going by 2027 tbh. Extremely doubtful, but that’s what they should be trying to do. Either way, the tax-payers are going to be the one footing the bill for this thing.

    Clay Bennett didn't buy the team to keep them in Washington. He offered them a sandwich knowing they would say no.

    To make the ATT center palatable, they need to invest in developing restaurants, clubs, and attractions around the area with supporting street traffic development for people to get in and out without waiting hours. The area should be hopping all the time not just game time.

    The whole text is there. I'd post it here, but I suppose this site wouldn't appreciate it.
