I won't miss the Sonics. I like sports. I love sports that are played for the love of the game. I'm disallusioned with playing sports for the love of the money. I rationalize my feelings, and think that's it's OK to enjoy college sports, since technically, they're not pro.

Worse than pro sports is public financing of pro sport stadiums and arenas in my estimation. Pro sports are private enterprize and should pay their own way. It makes me ill to eat in a Seattle restaraunt knowing I'm helping pay for Safeco Stadium.
