Just throwing this up here. I don't have twitter so I can't do the twitter quote deal.

Hearing Hawks owners want team to stay in Atlanta. BUT - hearing Thomas Tull and Chris Hansen have separate Hawks-to-Seattle bids planned.

I don't think there's a chance in hell for it to happen.

neat. I thought you needed twitter for it to quote off your own twitter account. my bad. thanks for the info. :)

I Don't care. I would still be a Hawks fan.  You can take the Hawks out of Atlanta, but you can't take the fan out of the Hawks fans.

I wouldn't be a fan. I am loyal to Atlanta pro sports outside of the Falcons. They go, I go.

I'm so tired of hearing that rumor.

No way in hell Koonin lets the Hawks fly out of Atlanta. If the league protected the Kings from leaving Sacramento, you better believe the Hawks are safe in Atlanta.  I would be absolutely stunned if the team was bought and moved out of town.

 

It sucks for Seattle to have your team stolen away from you, but you can't have our Hawks.

 

And I'm with Supes on this one... I'm a fan of Atlanta.

And f*** Bill Simmons too.

Since when has the NBA been interested in hustling BACKWARDS

 

Moving from a top 10 market to a not top 10 market??? Yea right

[Plainview1981]

Wouldn't it be something if the team played their best ball and started to do better in attendance and then get shipped out?

[NBASupes]

The NBA owners would decline this with the quickness. For the first time in years, fans love the Hawks. 

[HawkItus]

Yeah I draw my fan line at the Georgia line.  Sorry.

[PSSSHHHRRR87]

But I could see Gearon wanting to stick it to ALL the Hawks fans in Atlanta that hate their asses.  "If we can't have the Hawks then Atlanta can't have them either!"  Bitches.

[Bonkers]

Plus that would mean a team would have to move east. And certain owners will not probably NOT wanna do that

[JETSET]

Simmons is just scared shietless of this newly formed Beast in the East.  He knows his Celtics won't be able to compete with us for a long time.

Naw Gearon is a terrible owner but he was the only 1 of the owners that s known to love the Hawks

And spouse of the founder of Spanx. Well at least our players would always look slim!

I've said it before that if the Hawks got bought and moved that Hawksquawk (either this version owned by Chillz) or a new one that replicated this forum and owned by me would be going with them. It's hard to imagine it happening and I hope that day never ever comes, but I couldn't stop cheering for this team and the alternative would be not having a Hawksquawk altogether since a new Atlanta team would likely be several years or more away.

These fcking vultures need to stay away from our team! Some native needs to step up and do it quicksilver
