HOTEL CORAL ESSEX

  One former Sonic who I always liked to watch play and led the Sonics farther than they had been in eons in the mid 90's, Gary Payton, returns to the Key. Not sayin' he is the most likeable guy but in his hey day, he had it goin' on. A vagabond now, a loaded six string on his back, he plays for keeps...heyyyyyyyy...wait a minute. Anyway Payton returns with his South Beach Crew to the precipitous NWest to face the Sonics and I'm looking forward to seeing if we can hang and steal one from the Heat. Gotta say I dig the Floridians/Heat page that celebrates the old ABA club, and dresses up the current roster in vintage Floridian uni's with fros included! Its at the Heat official site if your interested.

Miami has for real celebrities at they're games. Seattle's version of Jack Nicholsen or David Caruso used to be Pearl Jam in the front row behind the Sonic bench. Ah, those were the days. Hey look! Theres the dude from Candlebox!  Candle Who? Yep, celebrity watching in Seattle is a different game. But I would gladly bust a clarinet over Kenny G's head if I saw him at a game for filling my head with shit whenever i step into a store or elevator. F*ck you, Kenny G!   We'll see Dwayne Wade also. Shaq Daddy Bom Bastic. I'm sure Collison and Petro will be punishing Shaq all nite. I say Bombs Away Rashard and Rid!! Keep em on they're toes. Beat Miami. SEATTLE #1 MIAMI #1 MIAMI #2 MIAMI #3   I hereby certify that this mans name has been removed from the list that in anyway associates, or gives any props, to him even being remotely identified as being from the region of the NWest and Seattle as a whole. Its like indentifying Chicago music with Micheal Bolton. Enough of the clowning. GO SONICS! The Unrest of the N'West against the beast of the East...bring it!
