This may have been mentioned already, but is there any major sports franchise that even comes close to how many moves the Rochester/Cincinnati/Kansas City/Sacramento/Seattle Royals/Kings/Sonics have undergone?

Just got back from the Bulls game. What a blast! Boozer came up huge in the 4th. Quite a few Bulls fans there; a lot more than when I saw the Bulls here in Rose's rookie season.

QUOTE (2nd_city_saint787 @ Feb 7, 2013 -> 10:21 PM) This Denver team is fun to watch Maybe against somebody other than the Bulls, but I didn't have any fun watching that. I'm going to the game tonight against the Jazz. I hope for a better Bulls' performance.

(Insert Celeb Here) is Dead
Reg Presley lead singer of The Troggs ("Wild Thing") died of cancer. He was 71. The Troggs were one of my favorite bands back in the day. They did a lot more good stuff besides "Wild Thing". Some friends and I formed a garage band in the summer of 1966, when "Wild Thing" came out and that was one song of about a dozen songs we could play. We weren't that good. Anyway, Reg Presley was a hero. RIP.

QUOTE (3E8 @ Jan 29, 2013 -> 11:03 AM) It's like "The O.C." but set 100 years ago and not as good. Are you saying Downton Abbey isn't as good as the O.C.? If you are, then woah.

2012-2013 Sox off season Catch-All thread
QUOTE (SouthsideDon48 @ Jan 26, 2013 -> 10:48 AM) The day the Sox stop wearing black and silver is the day I stop being a white sox fan. Seriously, why are a lot of people unappreciative of the iconic uniforms the sox wear right now? Why do people want the white sox to wear blue??? Hell, it was nauseating last season when I had to put up with the sox wearing those stupid red uniforms on Sunday home games. It really did piss me off, because Sunday games were games I was able to watch on tv during my hectic schedule, and I get confronted with them wearing stupid red uniforms that the Red Sox should be wearing. I hope you're kidding about quitting being a Sox fan because of a uniform change because that's ridiculous. Did I quit being a fan when the Sox started wearing the powder blue uniforms in 1964 or whenever it was? No. I actually kinda liked 'em. I loved the red uniforms of the Dick Allen era. That just happened to be my favorite Sox era anyway. I wasn't too fond of the old-style uniforms Bill Veeck changed to in 1976, though I did like the old-school lettering. Again, I didn't like the uniform change in 1982 though I was happy for a change, just didn't like the uniform they decided on. I think it's pretty dumb to get upset about throwback uniforms that are worn once in awhile. Guess you don't really appreciate White Sox history.
