Huge Lebron Billboard in Boston
Talk about rubbing it in. Not only did the Miami Heat wipe out Boston from the Playoffs this year, but they also took Ray Allen from them. Now what do they get in return? A HUGE Powerade billboard in the city of Boston to remind them over and over again how great Lebron is. This is hilarious.
Man Climbs the New York Times Tower for a Newspaper
Most of us know that all newspapers are available on the street, but this man wasn’t so sure. He decided to climb up the New York Times Tower for a newspaper instead of getting it the regular way. The man was “emotionally disturbed” and was arrested before climbing to the top. Apparently only 2 men have made it all the way to the top without getting arrested, this must happen often. For the entire story and more from the police report click here.
Seattle to have NBA Team by Fall
I know we’ve heard this all a bunch of times already, but this time it seems like they’re serious. Seattle officials have said that an NBA team will be in Seattle by fall and the Kings are currently being discussed. This report surfaced today and for more detailed information click here.
“A wealthy San Francisco hedge-fund manager and officials in the Seattle mayor’s office have been working behind the scenes for eight months to bring an NBA team back to the city as early as next fall and build a new arena, according to emails and documents that reveal a far more concerted effort than previously known.
A Dec. 13 agenda for a meeting between the parties shows they were talking about details such as a “Review of Basic Deal Structure,” “Financing Issues,” including “City Debt Capacity,” and “Security for Public Financing.”
The documents, released Friday to The Seattle Times under a public-disclosure request, also provide the first glimpse of how the largely unknown hedge-fund manager, 44-year-old Seattle native Christopher Hansen, approached the city about his desire to buy an NBA team and build an arena south of Safeco Field.
In an initial email laying out his vision, Hansen told city officials an arena could be built with minimal impact on taxpayers.”_Source
