Thats not the question.
[QUOTE=TakitoEspanoza]Thats not the question.[/QUOTE]
i'm aware of that. i don't have an answer to your question, but if the hornets were to go to seattle they should've just left them in OKC and let seattle keep the sonics.

Its obviously hypothetical at this point :hammerhead: Just want an opinion/prediction
Las Vegas. Just because it is closer.
Thread should be closed. Horrible timing. People are fleeing for their lives(including me) and the first thing you can think of is where are our pro teams gonna go AFTER this storm wipes us off the face of the map? Get a life dude. How bout you pray for New Orleans before you plot its downfall
[QUOTE=fiddy]Las Vegas. Just because it is closer.[/QUOTE]
Don't know if the NBA would allow it or even if the Hornets would want to go there...
I think Seattle makes the most sense. Everything is perfect in that situation: team needs a city, city wants a team.
New Orleans can't catch a break, man. When is the storm supposed to touch down?

Im athiest so who do you suggest I pray to? The Hurricane god? :hammerhead:
This is purely an NBA topic on where the Hornets will move too.
[QUOTE=Killer_Instinct]New Orleans can't catch a break, man. When is the storm supposed to touch down?[/QUOTE]
Late Monday/Early Tuesday as a Category 4 Hurricane, maybe even Category 5

I'm not sure, but those people have been through enough. I feel so bad for them right now.

hahah nohcp got owned athiests unite.
Move the Hornets to Seattle or Las Vegas so they'll be classified as a team in Northwest division while the Rayguns will be put into Southwest instead.
Maybe the flying spaghetti monster will save new orleans with his noodley appendage =)

Seattle would be a good place forr them to go they jus lost there ream and that would suck if i lost my favorite team

Burn in hell you ****ing idiot. Don't harp on a thousands of people in distress. Just because you are atheist doesn't mean you shouldn't have empathy.

He did not say that he does not care about those people. Telling someone to burn in hell is not exactly very caring.:violin:
Then again he should not assume that this hurricane will destroy a city.
they don't need to move just rename them the New Orleans Hurricanes :lol
[COLOR="White"]Im Just kidding don't take it too seriously [/COLOR]
I'm sad for New Orleans. :cry:
Maybe you should be mad at global warming instead.

after watching the all-star team rebuild a house in all-star weekend, i was feel kinda bad its gonna get smashed again
....
My sister just got married and her and my nephew live in Lake Charles, Louissianna... they just moved there...
It's right where the eye is projected to go.
I haven't been able to get ahold of her. The Hornets haven't been on my mind much...

:roll:
Well....hopefully its not too bad where the Hornets would have to reestablish elsewhere.

Beat me to it.
Damn these rising ocean temeratures:mad:
Not to get political but...it will interesting to see if the emergency response time/effort has improved since the last disaster. I fear that nothing changes in Bush-world except the talking points used in the media.
I have been living in Austin Texas for several years now and I can remember the night Katrina hit. I was out for my run and the the winds kept getting stronger until I was actually pushed around. Dust, dirt, leaves etc were blowing like crazy and I could barely keep my eyes open at certain times.
I went home turned on the news and thought I understood what was happening. The next morning I picked the Newspaper off the porch to see a picture of N.O. flooded and that is when I really began to understand the magnitude of what happened.
I just hope that somehow/someway each and everyone will be okay through this current mess of a situation.
And for the record, this is not about believing in or not believing in any God/religion, this is just about being a member of the human race. In a perfect world this would never happen to anyone. However, we all hold some ability to do something to help. When your time comes to do something, please make the most of it.
I know it's a sad situation, but at some point I don't feel empathy for those that put themselves in that situation again. It's like those people who rebuild multiple times after tornado season has wiped out their house. GTFO out of the area. I don't feel sorry for the person walking down the railroad tracks who gets hit by a train.

I spent 2 weeks last summer with habitat for humanity. It's ridiculous what they already have to deal with. Most of the city is not even fully restored yet, and this is gonna set that back another three years. I would just close the whole city and try to compensate for the residents to live somewhere else, but world is not perfect...

u dont understand do you?
say i stripped you of everything and put your body in a random city in the USA. would you rather be homeless or go back home?

Go back home...to what? A flood damaged house that is STILL smack dab in the middle of hurricanes EVERY damn year? If I had all my property destroyed, I WOULDN'T GO BACK AND REBUILD IN SAME DAMN SPOT. I can either have nothing and start over in another location, or go back "home" with nothing and put myself in the same situation as before. Start over somewhere else.

and you wouldn't go crying to the government for compensation? PLEASE. do you really think people are that dumb? do you really think they never consider the possibility of moving? they live there because they have nowhere else to live. not everyone has 100k+ income. doesn't mean they deserve to be sh*tted on.
Close thread

WTF does compensation have to do with staying in NO?

You are a dumbass. How the hell do they "have a place to live" IF EVERYTHING THEY HAD IN NO WAS WIPED OUT? Just because they own some land doesn't mean they have to build a home again on it. Some people lost EVERYTHING. You saying they are going back "home" is moronic because there are people who had NOTHING to go back to, and therefore no reason to rebuild in NO.
