Support Storm basketball in Seattle

I'm trying to keep myself from losing it. I'm in the Seattle type of mood, a beer and Nirvana's 'Nevermind'. It started pouring here after the announcement, very fitting. Today is a bad day for Seattle, a bad day for the Northwest, and the NBA. But luckily, the WNBA's Storm is under different ownership. I can only hope that this development wont kill off the Storm as a franchise. Seattle is a great basketball city, and although I want to drive Clay Bennett into a ditch, I should mention I still support the W. Sue Bird is still my favorite player, for many reasons. The Storm is still my team (as its been since 2001), even though I live in Illinois, and we now have the Sky. Now THAT'S a true fan! For the hell of it, I'd challenge the Storm organization to sell out Key, even if the tickets were free, you could show the NBA that you CAN sell out the Key.

I'll think of something else to write in another column, but for now I'll leave it at that. Go Storm!

Sincerely,

Ryan K.
