I admit that I care far too little about professional basketball and am much to dim about finances to have a worthwhile opinion about the standoff over Key Arena and what city the Sonics will call home after 2010. I have no idea what city I’ll call home in 2010 and have trouble even imagining the possibility of twenty-first century teen-decades. So we’ll leave the debate over that to the sports lovers and policy wonks in the crowd.

However, if you’re of the opinion that the Sonics should pack up their bags before we hand them two hundred million dollars, fine then, leave . com is just the website for you:

We’ll toast the team, remember the good times, and collect going-away cards that we’ll ask the City Council to deliver to the Sonics for us. We’ll provide the cake and gold watch, you provide the memories. [ftl]

They’re hosting a going away party for the team at City Hall next week (11 May). While you’re gearing up for the festivities, you can leave the Sonics a lovenote or vote in online polls as a way to vent your frustration with the current standoff.
