POLL: Are you surprised that Virginia Beach was passed over for an NBA team?

Virginia Beach mayor announced earlier this week that a proposed arena project wasn't moving forward after a owners of the Sacramento Kings said they didn't want to relocate the NBA team to the city. Are you surprised that Virginia Beach was passed over for an NBA team?

Very surprised. I'd already set aside money to purchase my seasons passes.
Not too shocked. The team would have had to wait for Virginia Beach to build a venue for the team to play in..
I would have been surprised if the team came. I don't think Virginia Beach could have supported the team on its own. It would have had to be a regional project.
I'm actually happy the team is not coming. I didn't want to pay for it.
