A nice midday update from The Bee's Mary Lynne Vellinga on those downtown railyards, where an arena has been speculated:

I know one guy who is absolutely thrilled about this news: Brad Miller. He can shop during timeouts! He'll seriously be one of their best customers.

Even aside for anything Kings-related, this is good for Sacramento. How many old ranch boys from Woodland, Elk Grove, Williams, East Nicholas, Galt, Lodi, Red Bluff, Redding, Placer, and Dixon will be funnelled into downtown Sac because of this? Add in the river fishermen and you've got tremendous potential.

Also, they should create some sort of shuttle between this and West Sac's IKEA. Double the parking lot at IKEA, and ship all the men across the river to Bass Pro while their women get herded through cheap Scandanavian home furnishings. (Wait, no one do this. I want to make it happen and reap the profit. Yes. Forget I ever mentioned any of this.)
