BITB: KU basketball will be most effected by an NBA franchise, since KU basketball is basically the third professional team in the KC metro.

Man, that'd be great. I'd give up my Thunder allegiance for that.

CP3 in KC

The best part: The ridiculous new nickname. I hope they get rid of Hornets.

What do you guys think they would go with?

Bring back Monarchs? (I know this was a baseball name)

Anything else Royalty related to keep the theme?

Was thinking we should do this. Just kick the Maloof Brothers in the nuts and tell them we're taking it back and there's nothing they can do about it.

Very intrigued by the Dobermans though...

The Queens to help take away some of the uk fanbase.

Kansas City Penguins.

OK_Cat · « **Reply #15 on:** December 07, 2010, 06:35:05 PM »

would not make sense at all, imo. Too much flyover country between OKC and KC to support 2 teams in this region.

Went to the Heat v. Thunder Exhibition game. Have been to a couple uk games this year.

One thing sort of stands out that makes BITB's statement unlikely to be true. The noticeable dearth of black people at a uk game as compared to the overwhelming majority of black people at the NBA exhibition game (and it's surrounding festivities). Unless, uk becomes less

and starts "lettin' dem boys" in AFH, uk has nothing to worry about.

Small influence, NBA fans and College BBall fans are two different breeds.

Good. The only reason I want an NBA team is if we are forced to choose between NBA and NHL. I'd rather have neither. I have enjoyed ignoring the NBA, and I'd like to keep it that way.

BITB is forgetting the most important thing: money
Are there any super-rich people that want to run a sports team in Kansas City? Supposedly the CEO of Microsoft wants another in Seattle and Jerry Bruckheimer wants to put one in Vegas.

Said this morning they want local ownership and that's pretty unlikely in KC...
