I won't even read it. The man is two-faced and is a low down snake. Worse than Tom Benson by far. He does not want to be in N.O. and never even gave us a chance bec. he saw an opportunity with OKC.

He is only coming back bec. he is forced to. If there was any legal way out or if the Commish allowed him to slip out of here......................he'd be gone in the blink of an eye. ZERO loyalty bottom line.

Who cares we get our team back, it's the team you support, not the owner!!!

I'm excited about the Hornets return, same as when the Saints return. Both owners are the same in my book, but I'll continue to support my city.

I'd like to see a filled arena, too. But an 8:30 start on a school night wasn't too bright. Saturday's game would have been a better choice as a late game, but the networks call all the shots. Please don't give me the Saints/Falcons were on a school night crap. That was TOTALLY different!

I'll be at the game, but I haven't been able to get behind the Hornets at all this season. Way to go, $hinn. Burnin' bridges and poisoning markets since Charlotte!

Word. I missed the first game, so I'm pretty excited despite the numerous injuries. :shrug:

I want them to return but if Shinn really thinks we can get him a practice facility by next year............................Well lets say that the city might have a different agenda.

Anyone interested in two good seats, Section 105, PM or call 985-507-8380 by 4:30pm, I don't want them to go to waste.

Uhhh... Are they staying in NO, or returning back to OKC...

The reason I ask this is to be honest here... I don;t know what your owner did, said or anything...

But I went to a big concert in the Ford arena Friday night.. This thing had been planned for a year. "trans Siberian Orchestra".. Even the mayor came up and gave them a key to the city...

I say this because If they ain;t staying... It was a farce.. Because nothing.. and I mean nothing was going to occupy the Ford Center Friday but the TSO...

After this season is over, the Hornets return to New Orleans until at least 2012.

And then a poll of OKC season ticket holders was performed asking if they'd be more likely to renew were the team to return "at some point in the future". Coupled with the less than full attendance in NO, the tease is on again.

Shinn gets OKC subsidies. Enough. Please go. Quickly. As Mick Jagger sang, "Get out of my life, don't come back".
