Report: Seahawks will go up for sale after Super Bowl

[Michael K.]

Couple of slimeball espn hacks putting this out there when there's no way Jodie or the Seahawks released it to anyone. Tabloid level stuff whether it's true or not.

Heard that! So this is just like when that Dumb Fuck Carzano did the same thing a few years ago and everyone freaked out and it was complete bullshit. They are just regurgitating the clause in the Trust that has no finite deadline. Idiots.

To put that out 9 days before the SB is sketchy at best. It's almost like someone at ESPN wants to create a distraction for Seattle but that's the conspiracy theory side me talking. Hey, isn't ESPN headquartered in New England? Coincidence...

It’s exactly what it is. Fuck ESPN. Like DT said, just repeating what has been out there since Paul died, and acting like it’s new news.

This shows what a dumb fuck Steve Ballmer is. This is why he said he couldn't buy the Sonics for $350M in 2006. He later paid $2 BILLION for the Clippers who still have never been to the NBA Finals. He took over MSFT as CEO in Jan. 2000 when the Stock was $59 a share and stepped down over 14 years later when the stock was at $38 a share.

Now 12 years later it is $430 a share!!!!

What caused MS stock to blow up over the past 10 years? Was it their acquisitions of Bluzzard, Linkedin etc?

Anyone else see this about Balmer last year?

They decided to hire a competent CEO.

It's not just the same story, it's that the seahawks have been in communication with the league about putting the team up for sale

Sale discussions have taken place at ownership and league levels for at least the past week, the sources said

[Sibelius Hindemith]

The timing of this was inappropriate IMO. "Discussions" leaked by anonymous sources that may have been going on for months and don't necessarily indicate an imminent sale should not be reported on when that team is playing in the SB in 9 days.

[Donn Beach]

Yeah, it's the context that matters. But it's news, it's reasonable to report it

So the Seahawks are lying or were the discussions were mischaracterized?

Lied about what, they said the team isn't for sale which it's not

So who had the sale discussions that you quoted? And what was the nature of the discussion.

Seahawk Employee: Fyi we might sell the team in the future

Janitor at the Hotel where the meetings were held: Oh really, interesting.
