Ok everyone, I am about to go out on a limb. I will be exposing a large part of my personal life to a group of online bloggers that I have never met (so take it easy Pookey). I am willing to do this, along with a much more challenging endurance event, in honor of some very important people in my life.
In the many years since I found this site, the good people of Sactown Royalty have proven themselves to be very giving. Your amazing generosity allowed us to reach our goal of raising $1000 for the Sacramento SPCA in the name of Kenny Thomas. (Surprisingly, nobody has mentioned this is while the inspiration himself has managed to find his way out of the doghouse. Coincidence; I think not.) And while it may not have raised as much money, the $27 (plus TZ's match of $27 more) we were able to raise through the famous Peaches tee shirt drive will forever live in infamy.

Joe Maloof on AM 570 KLAC
Hey everyone, Joe Maloof is about to come on my local AM radio station. I will try to dictate his more important comments.
He will be spending draft night in the "war room" in Sacramento (not important).
He has been present for all "important" PG work outs.
Feels like the draft is actually very deep and that they have good plans for the next day or so. (Hhhmmm)
He said that the Kings will be drafting a PG first, not as a slap to Beno, but due to a lack of depth at the position.
It was "vital" to hire a coach before the draft. Very happy with Paul.
The economy will be affecting how the team works with personnel and potential personnel in the future. Belives their current financial situation (under the cap) gives them a major advantage over other teams.
Confident that a new stadium will be worked out at Cal Expo. more worried about putting a quality team on the floor then getting a new stadium (good to hear, even if its just PR)
Talking about some local skateboarding event he is sponsoring....
....
The basketball suite in Vegas is popular...
....
Ok, that was pointless. You might not get your 2 minutes back from reading this, but I wont get the 10 minutes back I spent listening and typing.
Dammit.

Scottie Reynolds declares for the draft
Add another point guard to the pool. I dont know much about him, but the more point guards to chose from, the better. No offense Beno (well, maybe a little offense)

NBA to borrow money
Pretty interesting. At least the NBA acknowledges that smallmarket teams may need financial help. Doesnt say great things about the current state of the league though.

The View from my couch: Games 1-20

As some of my disruntled, poorly-worded and typo-filled posts this season may have hinted, I have'nt been operating at 100%. Long story short, I do not recommend severing nerves in your hand. Its not cool. Do you realize EVERYTHING you do all day requires two hands? Try buttoning your pants or putting on a belt with one hand, let alone type. As a standard touch-typist, one handed hunt-and-peck is beyond frustrating. Following games online, listening (er, reading?) to you all (and the too oft trollers) debate, talk trash and prophetise on the future of our beloved franchise is both frustrating and entertaining. Luckily, my primary paw is back, and I am ready to vent.

Stein's pre-season Power Rankings
Mark Stein is one of the only national writers that has any merit in my eyes. I think he's pretty close with his pre-season (pre-training camp really) rankings. He puts the Kings at 23, when I would rank them at 19. Just an FYI to the Sactown faithful.
It's been a while...

...I know its been a while since I've posted. Pretty much since the season ended. While I still read the site every day, I wasn't going to post until after the Finals. I needed to detox. And then this story broke, so much for that idea.
(I have TONS of thoughts on so many posts, which I will respond to over the next bottle of wine...I mean few hours. First, I want to get to some of my thoughts).

This is from the Yahoo Fantasy Sports news page, but is references the Bee. I for one really hope he re-signs.

A divisive subject at StR

Anyone that reads Sactown Royatly on a semi-often basis has surely noticed a recent split among the commons; basically the "pro" and "anti" Artest camps.

I have purposely avoided all things Kings since the loss to the Heat. The lack of effort killed me. Learning that much of it was due to partying too much the night before made it even worse. I didnt watch the Kings-Hawks game by choice. That is the first game I have missed all year that I was available to watch. I did not follow online either. I just read the game thread this morning, snd I am glad I did not watch.
