Oh, and if you're scoring at home, pretty much everyone who facilitated this big mess has been removed.

Mayor Elaine Scruggs (she was for it before she was against it): chose not to run

Steve Frate (just another foot soldier as best I can tell): chose not to run

Phil Lieberman (was for it before against it, the guy who voted yes because of an eight=year=old boy in a Shane Doan sweater):retired

Joyce Clark (alleged that Mexicans conspired to move the Coyotes, sock puppet of strange man from another suburb): lost her seat

Ed Beasley (city manager who brokered all these bad deals): "retired"

Craig Tindall (city attorney): made to resign

Horatio Skeete (acting city manager): not retained

the Joyce Clark one sounds like something out of South Park.

Who's the one that said "I want them to go bye-bye."?

From an IM log with a Coyotes fan friend of mine:

Anyway, when I went to get food, I ordered a combo each for me and my sister which is like $15 each and the actual register I went to had no actual terminal or anything

But they swiped my card

Anyway, now it's Sunday and I have yet to see that charge actually post on my online statement; usually it only takes like an hour or two for a charge to post on it (even if it's "pending" it'll still actually show up and affect my "available balance")

They weren't able to give me a receipt either

So there's a decent chance that their credit card system :censored: ed up my order and I'm never actually going to be charged for it

the worst helmets design to me is the Jacksonville jaguars hamlets from 1995 to 2012 because you can't see the logo vary wall

Cool! Hopefully he was a local. A few hundred thousand more of those and the NHL will be even with the residents of Glendale.

An intrepid HFboarder confirmed every half-intelligent person's suspicion that creepy George Fallar is running that Joyce Clark blog.

Why though? He has his own blog.

Probably paying for her server space or something. I don't know why an old lady who doesn't even like hockey is hanging around with a bunch of dead-end weirdos. The whole thing gets weirder every day.

He would have gotten away with it if not for those meddling kids. Jinkies. I hope someone proves that Mr. Fallar is also BigMac12.

considering how bizarre this situation has gotten, that would be totally fitting. I'm expecting this to be like the ending of Super Mario Bros.2 and we wake up and find out this was all a dream.

It's been a month and a half since Jamison's bid died, and no news. Is anyone else a little perplexed at the quiet before the storm?

They could just keeping things quiet until the season's over. You thought Coyotes ticket sales were bad now? Imagine if the league just announced "yeah, they're moving to Quebec as soon as the season's over."

Another possibility is that they're waiting to see how things shake out in Seattle.

The Seattle thing is what I was alluding too. I really do wonder given that there is a potential ownership ready to go in Seattle if they're simply waiting to see what the NBA does vis-a-vis the Kings. If the Kings move, Seattle gets the Coyotes, if not Quebec does. Either way they'd be done in Phoenix. Frankly the silence and lack of urgency coming out of the NHL about Glendale leads me to believe any decision won't be good for Glendale so as you say, why bring it up until necessary since it's just going to tank attendance.

Yeah the silence on both sides, plus Glendale shopping around for someone other then the NHL to manage the arena, really paints the picture that the two sides have just decided to go their separate ways.

After years of the city and league fighting hard for Glendale to happen to have the Coyotes slink out of town with no fanfare to either Seattle or Quebec just seems so anti climatic though doesn't it.

But it does make the most sense. With Quebec and Seattle interests being quiet on the whole issue. Glendale shopping around and not saying a word about it otherwise. The league not saying a word... Seems the cone of silence has decended on the whole affair. As I said above, the calm before the storm. I have a feeling after the NBA decision on Seattle is made things will start moving real fast as it pretains to the Coyotes. 37 more days!
