The Maloof's have been tiring to build a new arena for 10 years now. If you knew anything about what is about to happen in the NBA, this NBA season will end in a lock-out with the league wanting to slash salary costs by one-third ($700-800 million) in the next agreement which will be June 30th. If this can't be done the NBA is considering the elimination of teams to also solve the league's financial woes. If the Maloofs are told they are in that category because the Sacramento market is the weakest or one of the weakest in the league, then expect them to preserve their investment by moving to Anaheim. All this well known info. My bet is that there won't be a season at all next year because players won't want to cut their salaries. trapper 2011-04-23T14:54:29Z trapper comment-48287 2011-03-29T22:09:07Z 2011-03-29T22:09:07Z The Maloof's have NEVER missed a payment to anyone and have given $17 million to local charities in the last ten years.

The apartments at 1801 L Street are high end rentals and it's 92% rented out with studios going for $1000 and 3 bed for $4000. Show me where you’re getting you facts from please. trapper 2009-10-14T21:00:41Z trapper comment-15561 2009-10-14T20:48:52Z 2009-10-14T20:48:52Z Scott and Alicia, what are you two doing to help the homeless? Why don't you get involved instead of telling everyone else to do something? BTW Alicia, there are several areas in our community that are designated to work with the homeless like Loaves & Fishes, A Street Shelter, Bannon Street Shelter, Winter Shelter, Open Arms etc. etc... It’s up to the homeless individuals as to use the services or not. trapper 2009-10-14T20:48:52Z trapper comment-15472 2009-10-13T19:15:45Z 2009-10-13T19:15:45Z It sucks to be downtown today. trapper 2009-10-13T19:15:45Z trapper comment-14939 2009-10-05T23:04:56Z 2009-10-05T23:04:56Z If the City did it instead of a private company the cost to bottle water would cost twice as much.

AT&T ballpark in San Francisco's a prime example of how the stadium spurred housing, restaurants, and businesses being built all around the stadium. That area was a forgotten run down district with warehouses and rundown streets before the stadium came, now it's a destination. This is only one of many arenas that benefitted in a positive way. trapper 2009-09-30T20:11:33Z trapper comment-14688 2009-09-30T00:55:12Z 2009-09-30T00:55:12Z Don't you have anything to say about the article?

All those that pay property taxes for law enforcement to do there job say “I”. This attitude that we should create something because a few people want it sounds crazy. Why doesn’t the city put it up for a vote to see if the community wants a “homeless campground” in the city since will all be paying for it with taxes. trapper 2009-09-11T02:38:50Z trapper comment-13541 2009-09-10T20:40:10Z 2009-09-10T20:40:10Z So will this camp ground that the Democratic Party of Sacramento County want also have the blessing of all the residents that live next to or around it?

If this property is going to become a place for people to flop, it should be zoned that way with permission from the neighbors. The City of Sacramento was going to pay these officers weather they broke up this camp or sweep K Street for bums and gangs, I'm glad they chose to enforce the anti-camping ordinance. Next on the list, sweep K Street for gang bangers, bums, and others that cause the public to avoid that stretch of street whenever possible. trapper 2009-09-03T00:59:28Z trapper comment-13095 2009-09-02T19:31:21Z 2009-09-02T19:31:21Z Sarah sounds hot!!! trapper 2009-09-02T19:31:21Z trapper comment-12925 2009-08-31T05:12:13Z 2009-08-31T05:12:13Z Thanks Officer Michelle for all your good suggestions week after week. trapper 2009-08-31T05:12:13Z trapper comment-12798 2009-08-28T20:57:59Z 2009-08-28T20:57:59Z It's always someone else right sjs?
