I am still waiting for Seattle to get real Major League baseball team, so I wouldn't hold my breath for Sonics 2
Probably a good chance that Sonics 2.0 makes it back to the playoffs BEFORE the M's do!

Demolition continues at the Key: https://twitter.com/NHLSeattle_/status/ ... 6343771136

Also, Seattle's NHL website is up and running at nhlseattle.com.

It took the Blues 52 years to win their first Stanley Cup, so if the M's want to win their first WS like them, we have to wait until 2029. Hey, it's only a decade away! :mrgreen:

Sigh...

The Traffic down there is gong to be an absolute disaster. It was already a nightmare when the Sonics left and that was before Vulcan built 50 New Skyscrapers in South Lake Union. The decision to blow off Hanson and go through with this project was idiotic.

Don't worry, everyone. Light rail to the Seattle Center is just a mere twenty years away! That, or they should have the drones up and running by then. Oh, almost forgot the Monorail! Problem solved! :roll:

I still chuckle at the promo photo of the couple biking to the game on a beautiful summer day.

This one is exhibits a far more likely scenario. Hey looks like Mercer traffic as well.

I think everyone had a good chuckle about that pic. Well, everyone except the SCC.

This will be coming to the Monorail in a couple of years once the NHL team start playing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GmEh-1pK87Y

I've been on crowded trains before but NEVER that bad! And no way in hell will I be taking the Monorail to the SC, no sir. It's the drones for me! :lol: ;)

OVG/NHL Seattle with a poll asking how to get to the Key once the team starts playing: https://twitter.com/NHLSeattle_/status/ ... 5958222848

What do you know, most plan to drive. Former CM Rob Johnson has his work cut out for him in trying to mitigate the traffic/parking situation around the arena since we all know OVG has yet to come up with anything. But hey, light rail in about twenty years to the SC so it's not that far off! :roll:

Man, if only we had an option where transit is available and traffic is nowhere as bad as it is around the Seattle Center. Sigh...
