Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Saturday, May 19, 2007

Via Stever, more fun with the future of the Storm: apparently Storm exec Karen Bryant offered to purchase the team from Clay Bennett this year.

"Bennett rejected Bryant’s offer," Tacoma's News-Tribune reports, "because, while he may not want to relocate the Storm, he felt at the time it gave him more leverage with the Legislature." (Nice guy.)

Storm fans may have a white knight-- no, a green-and-red knight-- in Puget Sound real estate maven David Sabey, who now wants to purchase the Sonics and Storm from Bennett.

Also in Seattle, Jayda Evans' blog is back in force. On the team's future: "The team will most likely still relocate, but the Storm is going out in style." Bennett first said he wouldn't attend the home opener, now says he'll show.

Jayda also links to an OKC piece asking whether the Sooners could love the Storm. (Answer: maybe.)

Back to today: Lauren Jackson talks to Jayda about her return from overseas, and about the departure of assistant coach Jessie Kenlaw, who helped LJ develop her post moves.
