Election Results

[Oh GAWD the Smell!]

Wow. I can't even express how happy I am.

Streaking worked for the guy down the street from me.

[Karried]

betts!!!! I've been waiting for you..... we did it. We did it!

[Easy180]

It has ended up to be a GREAT night...Want to thank all the folks a little north of me who stepped up to the plate

Powerful message being sent to the BOG

Great day to be an Okie

[Dustbowl]

I am a real TVNEWSGUY and The viewers in Sayre care just as much about not dying as people in the metro... but this isn't the forum for this, And I can't wait to get media passes to the NBA games!

Well, if you get free passes to the games, why not give them away to a kid who might enjoy the game? Why would you carry water for the Clay's of the world and then not pay for your tickets to help support your vote? Oh I get it.....

[Karried]

Dustbowl..... please allow the supporters who have worked so hard for this to enjoy the moment without the insults.

[SWOKC 4 me]

. . . BTW, I will spend my money at THE BRICK.

See, there's something for everyone!

really? dude... well id be happy to give my pass to the kid, does he also want to shoot the game with a 50 pound camera on his shoulder the whole time, cause that's what is expected of me if I have the media pass... you don't have to go to the games, you don't have to like that it passed, you don't have to enjoy the fact that when the Hornets were here it infused almost 2 million dollars into the downtown economy. But I care about my city and want it to succeed. And anyway Dustbowl tonight is a perfect example of what happens in a democracy, sometimes OTHER PEOPLE WIN!

[CrimsonOberon]

This is how I feel right now.

OOOOOH OK, I will. Have fun. We will be watching.

[donbroncho]

OOOOOH OK, I will. Have fun. We will be watching.

Some people just feel the need to ruin things. Your side lost. You have to get over that fact....

Im excited for my hometown. I see good things happening in our future...

Don't you get paid to do that dude? If you don't like your job, get another one.
I do care about my city, I just disagree with this deal. I guess that makes me an OKC hater. Pretty funny.

[okctvnewsguy]

I love my job! I get to cover NBA games in OKC!

Now it's up to the NBA vote next month! We are one BIG step closer to getting a permanent NBA team and will have one of the best arenas in the country regardless. It's also great that the renovation takes into account the new blvd. with its grand entrance there. If the blvd. were there now the Ford Center would have no presence.

Having that entrance will enhance the overall appearance of the blvd. where there will one day be a large amount of pedestrian activity. There will be the new much larger convention center and convention hotel proposed on the south side between Robinson and Shields, the new park and gardens on the south side between Robinson and Hudson, a proposed "retail district" on the north side between Robinson and Hudson, and future Bricktown development south of Reno along Oklahoma Ave. where the blvd. will go at-grade through downtown.

I've seen the blvd. proposals and it will be a 6 lane avenue with a landscaped median and parallel parking on both sides. Sidewalks will be extra wide with two rows of trees for shade and all intersections will have brick crosswalks. It will be like this (at-grade) from Oklahoma to Classen. Obviously the east end will be developed first with the western end coming later (especially as the Arts District/Film Row area to the north grows). The Ford Center as the first major project is just the beginning.

I don't think you're an OKC hater because you don't support the tax extension. I do, however, think you're just a hater, period.

You're entitled to your opinion and others have respected that. You, on the other hand, have felt obligated to insult and namecall while adding nothing of significance to your side's argument.

[OKCDrummer77]

I felt kinda helpless not being able to vote (I live in The Village). I'm thrilled and relieved to see it pass.

OK, I'm a nothing. I hate everything. You're right.

[DVDFreaker]

Does anybody want to go the Magic games with me? GO MAGIC!!!!

No DVD, we will mostly turn overnight into Sonics fans. I have been a rabid Mavs fan for 8 years now but all bets are off. I never, never, never dreamed I would be a fan of the NBA OKC whatevers. I always wanted to move to a city that had some sort of major league team and now it looks as if they are coming to me.
AWESOME BEYOND WORDS!!

[Oh GAWD the Smell!]

Hey Dustbowl....



Go start your own thread.

Awww, seems everybody is gonna turning into Sonic fans except me

[Redskin 70]

Im glad for OKC that it passed. Even if my friend Carl wrote a piece against it.

[CCOKC]

Give it some time. We're all just excited to have our own team. I have always followed players in the NBA, first Larry Bird and now Dirk. I will now have a team that I will have to love good or bad.

[OKCDrummer77]

What do you suppose is going to happen when the Sonics play the Hornets?

[AFCM]

OK, I'm a nothing. I hate everything. You're right.

Go back and read your posts. You're extremely bitter and hateful. It's one thing to post your concerns, but you're simply hurling contemptuous nonsense.
