Looks like the A’s followed us into the desert.
I get why the city prioritized the A’s over the Raiders - 81 games vs 8. But it was a big mistake, because I feel it’s become obvious that Davis was actually negotiating with Oakland in good faith while that was never the case with the A’s.
I still root for the Raiders as hard as I did when they were in LA and Oakland, but the Vegas thing is sad. It’s gonna wind up like the Phoenix market - oversaturated with teams that mostly don’t draw and don’t have any national appeal. Raiders in Oakland was special.
Rooted in Oakland My Ass
Fkn lame, I don’t even follow baseball but why do they gotta tag along.
Us? Many of us are stilll rooted in Oakland.
I hope the A’s fail in the desert. Fuck them, actual poverty franchise.
“Rooted in Oakland” 😂
If Mark was smart he’d fire Josh McDaniels.
As a former A’s diehard, fuck the A’s and fuck the uneducated fans that didn’t and still don’t understand how they fucked the Raiders out of Oakland.
I hope Mark makes it hard for them at every turn, since the A’s organization did the same in Oakland.
The A’s have been crying poverty since the bash brothers were a thing, but the fact of the matter is that the Bay Area is rich enough and populated enough to support 2 baseball and 2 football teams, but the A’s chose to make easy money and in the process, pushed out one of the football teams.
Fuck the A’s.
Wants a stadium, is a billionaire.
He won’t sell stock
He won’t sell the team
He won’t find investors
He won’t take a loan
He just wants a free stadium with welfare forever and no expenses whatsoever. In return, he will do jack shit. What the fuck is his point of being? GTFO of my city.

Not an As fan so idk how to feel. As long as those dudes find another place that’s not allegiant for 2-3 years, it’s alright ig. The next generation of oakland natives will maybe start rooting for San Francisco teams which sucks though.
I hope the Athletics brand stays in Oakland. I realized it didn’t start in Oakland, but I feel dead with them moving to LV. Like others I followed Raiders there despite wanting them to stay in oakland. Rather than repeat what most said, I’ll just go upvote them. Fuck fisher
Fuck John Fisher entitled piece of shit
Oakland just got abandoned by all three professional sports teams. That’s crazy.
