..what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? let them take arms.

I'll take the Spirits of St. Louis. The NBA pays these owners and they don't even have a team.

Not any more. The owners of the defunct Spirits settled with the NBA in 2014. The NBA paid them $500 million to go away. The league knew they had a huge new TV deal coming and wanted to cut them out before that happened.rayxtwo wrote:I'll take the Spirits of St. Louis.

Both Bob#s and myself would accept that non-compete.
