Re: More News on Sonics Lawsuit
Did you listen to the interview with Munson from the radio broadcast I posted? Munson goes into a lot more details in the interview. At one point saying when he first heard of the lawsuit he gave it 0% chance and thought it was just nothing more than grandstanding. However after having read it, he was shocked at how strong the lawsuit actually is and actually gives Seattle better odds of winning than Bennett. He also gives more details on the actual lawsuit and thinks Seattle has a really strong case.
I have read that more emails are going to be released and Munson talks about reading them (ones that are not yet released) and says its all rather damning. Mention that one email talks about Bennett's intention to move the Team to OKC two days before actually buying the team! He also talks about how the Arena deal was basically overblown on purpose to ensure a failed deal, that we are going to be seeing a lot more coming out over the next couple weeks.
Can anyone please explain how Bennett and company were dumb enough to type all this out in emails? Why on earth would you ever commit to writing two days before buying the team that you intended to move them? Why oh why?
When asked to give a % of the case for Seattle, again he said he gives it a 55% to 60% chance in favor of Seattle, that Bennett would make a profit that the team would be sold for higher value than what he had paid.
