I am getting sick of this sh*t.
Me too. I don't see any way you could get a fair jury trial on this issue in Seattle or Oklahoma City. This would be like trying to get a fair jury trial in Seattle regarding Seattle relocating Boeing headquarters. People in Seattle may not want to pay for the team, pay for it's building or even go to the games. But that doesn't mean they want someone else to have them. I wish I could have faith in a trial by jury, but people are human, and humans aren't always completely impartial and reasonable, even when serving on a jury.
