I am just your typical housewife and mother and I am very upset that we need to rid our city of landmarks so we can have a sports arena. The hockey club will get their arena (like the Mariners) and then they won’t want to share. Then we will have to get rid of more landmarks so a basketball club can have their arena, and so on. What is wrong with the arena we have near the Snohomish County PUD headquarters? Can’t it be remodeled? The kids just need a place to play games. It’s the adults that want more.
Has everyone gotten so greedy? I am truly ashamed of parents who seem to think they can have anything they want if they just whine and cry a little. Give me back the ’50s when everyone made do with what they had and life was fun and safe. We did have hockey, basketball, football, baseball, wrestling and all the sports they have now, and we were very content to have what we had.
