I don't need precedent. All I can do is assure you that the buy out will not be high enough to prevent an over-zealous out of state owner to leave "po-dunk" OKC for wherever. Given the way we took the team away from Seattle, it would not be at all surprising for someone to do it, in part, in retaliation to our getting the team so long ago.

If you told me tomorrow that the lease buy out were structured something like before 2030 @ $350M, 2030-2035 @ $300M, 2035-2040 @ $250M, and $200M to end of lease, I'd vote yes in a heartbeat.
