George Shinn Quotes
I believe it's going to come back. I feel its going to come back bigger and stronger. We're here (Oklahoma City) for this year. New Orleans has a lot do to get back and when they come back, we're coming back. I want the people there to have hope. In a lot of ways that's all some of them have, and I'm not going to take that away from them.

When we come back and what we do is a real good question. We're looking at Oklahoma City and here in Baton Rouge. Playing in the Arena has good and bad possibilities. If we could do it in a way that we'd have a full crowd, it would be ecstatic. If we have 1,500 people, it would be horrible. That might send a signal there was no hope there.

Because of what they went through here [with the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995], they made it clear to the NBA when they called that they're not trying to steal the team. They just wanted us to have a safe place to land, maybe play here for a year or two and maybe that might help [them] get a [professional] team in the future.
