      The dome being about 31 years old at the time was iconic in it's day, but that's another story. The bottom line is that the owner did what he wanted and moved our team. Tennessee fans only hear what they want to hear from the Adam's family's point of view. But they weren't here and didn't experience what we fans witnessed here.

    On the bright side, Seattle forever keeps the Sonics name and colors and franchise records. That’s why it is incorrect for people to say the Thunder have won a championship. No. They have never won a championship. The Sonics won a championship.

    • @flibbidyx2
      @flibbidyx2 9 днів тому +15

      Kinda/sorta. NBA official records still combine the two franchises in terms of statistics and results, meaning they HAVE won a championship, at least according to the NBA. The Thunder don't really publicly claim any of it though, and they did agree to allow Seattle to keep the name and colors, and they even left the physical championship trophy behind. If Seattle does get an expansion team, then the Thunder will officially cede the records and history to Seattle's new team.

    • @JPS47

      Same with the Cleveland Browns, who were brought back as a continuation of the old Browns and the Ravens are it's own franchise, and the Phoenix/Arizona Coyotes who could get their name back whenever they get a new team. I wish it was like this with every team that moves.

    • @Playhouse76
      @Playhouse76 9 днів тому +6

      Technically, Seattle kept the name and colors. The franchise records, banners, trophies, etc. were and still are owned by the Thunder. All of the paraphernalia has been kept at MOHAI in Seattle for the past 16+ years in anticipation of a Sonics return. Without getting too far in the weeds, there was an agreement to freely share the team history if a team started playing in a renovated KeyArena within 5 years of the team leaving, which would've been 2013.
      The Thunder franchise gets to claim ownership of the '79 championship, just as the Kings get to claim ownership of the 1951 Rochester Royals championship. The Thunder have even made a duplicate championship trophy. We'll see if the history gets separately given to Seattle -- like the arrangement with the Hornets' and Pelicans' histories when Charlotte got the name back -- or if it remains shared, as was in the arena lease settlement agreement when the team left .
      The one thing I'll credit the Thunder with is that they rarely, if ever, reference the Sonics' past. They consider the team started in 2008, and they've never attempted to wear throwback Sonics unis. They also didn't claim the championship when the NBA started putting special championship signifiers on jerseys. They do get a cut of retro merch sales, but some portion of those sales is shared amongst all teams.
      A new agreement for the team history would have to be negotiated when the Sonics return. I'm guessing it will likely be freely and simply granted.

      ​@@JPS47 Yep, the Ravens were retroactively classified as an "expansion" team that started in 1996.
      I believe the New Orleans Pelicans are now considered a 2002 NBA expansion team. This was part of their agreement to give the Hornets name back to Charlotte in 2013.
      The Hornets count their 1988-2002 history, their 2004-2012 Bobcats history, and their modern history. New Orleans kept the 2002-2012 New Orleans Hornets and New Orleans/Oklahoma City Hornets histories, in addition to everything from 2013 on.

      I wish the Texans were the Oilers instead though. tagliabue 👎
      Though, I wouldn't want original Oiler records to go back to Houston. Having it done with the new Browns feels like they "stole" history to me.
      Anyway, as a kid I was an Oiler fan, but I don't really have a team now. Changing to the Titans I couldn't go with them anymore. And Houston Texans just didn't feel right to me either (I live in VA, not Houston, so I don't necessarily have a city loyalty).

    As a resident of Raleigh, I agree with the sentiment here... if a name moves with the team that's one thing, but if the relocation includes a rebrand? That cuts the tie from at least an identification perspective - it should be outlawed. But Brodie, there's a small error in this particular video: Paul Tagliabue "retired" the Oilers name for no other reason than he didn't have a choice - Bud Adams kept, and to this day the family still controls, the IP behind the "Houston Oilers" brand; and they didn't relinquish it. In fact their annual use of the uniform bolsters their U.S. trademark rights claim to the brand. Tagliabue said it as a face-saving gesture of sorts; and it wasn't the first one he'd done... for about two weeks a few years earlier, Ken Behring was going to move the Seattle Seahawks to Los Angeles. While the move would be stopped when Paul Allen stepped in to buy the team, in that case the NFL *did* control the Seahawks IP rights well enough that Tagliabue could (and did) "retire" the Seahawks name and make it stick. Had Behring moved the team it wouldn't have been the L.A. Seahawks.
    Another, completely unrelated but ironic factoid on this subject... had the buyers that moved the St. Louis baseball team there not chosen to do so, and had not the city of Cleveland sued the NFL and Fart Modell to compel them to do adopt a new brand for their respective franchises, today sportscasters would have the fun of referring to the "Baltimore Browns" in the same way their predecessors did the "St. Louis Cardinals" from 1960 to 1988 - by specifying reference to the "football" Browns or the "baseball" Browns...
