~~~ NOTE FROM CHRIS: ~~~

The NBA has decided to allow the new owners of
the Seattle SuperSonics to move the franchise to
Oklahoma and rename it the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Approving the move not only deprives the people
of Seattle of a team they've had four decades,
it gives a team to Oklahoma City, bypassing
at least a dozen larger markets like San Diego,
San Jose, Jacksonville, Austin, Baltimore,
Ft. Worth, El Paso, Louisville and Las Vegas.

Since the league is awarding franchises to
smaller cities and towns, it's only fair that
TopFive be allowed to name those teams, right?
