McClendon, the billionaire founder and chief executive of Chesapeake Energy, told The Journal Record, “we didn’t buy the team to keep it in Seattle; we hoped to come here.”
Stern e-mailed Bennett that if McClendon really made that remark there would be a “HUGE fine.” Indeed, Stern later imposed a $250,000 fine on McClendon.
Quote:
“Is there any way to move here [Oklahoma City] for next season or are we doomed to have another lame duck season in Seattle?” Ward wrote.
Bennett replied: “I am a man possessed! Will do everything we can. Thanks for hanging with me boys, the game is getting started!”
Ward: “That’s the spirit!! I am willing to help any way I can to watch ball here [in Oklahoma City] next year.”
McClendon: “Me too, thanks Clay!”
That exchange occurred just after the Washington Legislature refused to authorize taxpayer money for a $500 million Renton arena Bennett had proposed.
Fuck you, I'm glad you're dead.
