We are in the midst of the trial pitting the City of Seattle vs. the Seattle SuperSonics. As much as I’d like to see the Sonics stay in Seattle, I just can’t see how it’s going to happen. Howard Schultz, you’re an idiot. Clay Bennett, you’re an asshole.

This song is dedicated to the Sonics’ better days. It is “Detlef Schrempf”, by Band of Horses. For those of you who don’t know, Detlef Schrempf was a forward from Germany who played for the Sonics in the ’90s - a time when they were actually good. He also played for the University of Washington.

Adieu, Sonics.
