What to tell my dad? He's been a fan since the team started way back when. Sigh, moan, sigh, sob.
泣きたい。
"Boycott Starbucks" かな。。。
心より哀悼の意を示します…
Oklahoma City Sonics…！！ lol
いやー、本当にHoward Schultzの軽さにはあきれました。
Viaductも作り直さないと出し、Floating Bridgeも崩れそう。教育関係もお金が足りている訳ではない. . .それなのにお金よこせ？お金がこなかったら、リスペクトが無い？誰だこの馬鹿オーナー。
かなりつらいけど、Starbucksボイコットを訴えたい。
I can easily join the act! Boycott Starbucks! Bring me a piping hot cup!
その訴えにのった（赤坂駅店限定）。
It's all about the money. Seattle won't let them go, don't worry. Don't you think Shaun Alexander looks like Tiki Barber?
It is about money, but if the City of Seattle were to give the Sonics all that money right now when the city has other needs, I might feel kind of bad. Sure the Mariners and the Seahawks got their stadiums, but that was when money was better and the two teams showed some sense of pleasing the locals.
What have the Sonics done? Signed Jim Mcilvaine (ok that was years ago, but still), traded away and pissed of Gary Payton (more power to him though). Pissed me off!!!
The Starbucks boycott is on...and no, I won't be lonely.
[this is horrible]Testing the quick comment. . .
