Such a tortured fan base - just think of how those Vegas fans stuck with their team through thick and thin

spoke to a friend of mine in LV recently, he said that GK games largely drew tourists / out of towners as it was a pretty cheap ticket, but since the playoff run started they are the talk of the town and have drawn a large local fan base.

Good for them, let the knights suck for a decade (like almost every fanbase in professional sports has delt with) and then see if they’re still the talk of the town.

A team sucking for ten years and losing fan interest would make them no different than any other city.

And at that point, it’s a Cinderella story. You don’t get to be Cinderella without having endured the evil stepmother

Now how to get tickets without sacrificing a first born. Will they do a general sale of anything left?

"The center of sin, largesse, vice and corruption versus Las Vegas" jokes are already starting.  Sigh...

Seriously, if everyone outside of DC did a better job of voting, we wouldn't have all these corrupt politicians in DC.

Always mention to the family in W. PA, "Each and every one of these bums come from someplace else.    One of the great things about our form of representative government is they're just like the people who sent them  ....   you."   I usually save that til the end of the Thanksgiving dinner.

Few are corrupted before they arrive.  (Ahem. Term Limits.)

We have term limits.    They're called elections.    :)

You can't even run for town dog catcher without being in someone's pocket.
