Most likely where you and I will defer is that, if they (the Sonics) get here fine. But if they don't, then I'm fine with that also. I can only speculate that the Citys determination on wether or not the use of public funds would be a worthwhile civic expenditure was made after they weighed all of their options. If that is correct, then I would assume they concluded that the rewards far out weighed the risk. Anyway, the cost to the Citizens of Seattle associated with this lawsuit will have little if any impact on the City's Budget. So what the hell, they went for it.
