Will play at Quest. David Stern's head explodes.

"Major League Soccer is coming to Seattle in 2009.

Sources confirmed on Friday that the long-rumored announcement of an expansion franchise for the city will come early next week.

The new Seattle franchise will play at Qwest Field on Field Turf. The primary ownership group will consist of Seattle Sounders owner Adrian Hanauer, Hollywood mogul Joe Roth, and Seahawks' owner Paul Allen."

If I am Seattle I let the Sonics go. Screw them. Let them become Okies.

Also Drew Carry is part of the ownership group. He wants to bring fans voting rights into the mix allowing Seattle fans the right to vote for the GM every 4 years.
