    I will never forget that night. Shoutout to the Oakland 68's for coordinating and organizing the Reverse Boycott. We're not giving up until shovels hit the ground in Vegas. The Reverse Boycott felt like a playoff game in the middle of the season but without the anxiety of getting eliminated in the playoffs. That crowd was electric. MLB and John Fisher should be ashamed of themselves for taking this away from us and getting away with it

    I do agree that Oakland deserves better and I am not referring to the sports owners.. Oakland deserves better city leaders who doesn't play the victim role.. Oakland deserves a real mayor who understands the importance of sports.. People are quick to say that sport's stadiums doesn't do anything for a city..I differ on that cause I seen first hand what the Thunder has done for Oklahoma City..In order for a stadium to be successful you have to have the amenities surrounding it like shops, restaurants,etc.. Oakland didn't do that..All Oakland did was play it cheap by having that s__t hole out there in East Oakland with the hopes it will generate revenue..And people got the nerve to blame sport's owners?.Pro sport's is a business and it should be treated as such.. This is why Oakland is losing and will continue to loose until you get the right people in place..I don't blame the sports owners for leaving cause Oakland had more than enough time to get a deal done and they didn't.. So in regards to the lame pathetic progressives who run Oakland.. This City does deserve better..

      I wonder what's happened during that time? Sold every star player, multiple bad seasons because of it, nothing invested into the stadium, and prices raised at every opportunity. Tell me, would you go if you thought the team didn't care and their strategy was a facade, an excuse for not caring?

      Politicians have blame as well as well as the SF Giants. The Giants did not agree to share San Jose once again. The A's gave SF full control of that area when the Giants were going to move to Tampa. Jerry Brown was the first politician who killed a plan in the early 2000's when he was mayor @@mookiestewart3776
