    Seriously, who in their right mind would want to go to Oakland for a game. The place is a dump, the city is a dump, the people created a dump. The Raiders and Warriors left and are thriving, why, because they are not in Oakland no more. I got a idea, have the Spanos family buy the team, oh wait, he lives in Stockton and also pulled the same move, but at least San Diego is beautiful.

      "Oaklanders will still be able to reasonably drive....." If you consider driving the exact same lengths that Philadelphia Flyers and Eagles fans as well as New Jersey Devils and New York Giants fans drive to potentially see road games in each other's towns during head-to-head games in both directions along the New Jersey Turnpike (at least 85 miles in each direction), then yes, they'll still be able to reasonably drive to see the Athletics, lol?

    There’s been more commenters on TH-cam than supported the A’s by sitting in the crappy coliseum. Truthfully with all the problems in Oakland losing one, two or three professional sports teams is the least of the problems.
    John Fisher isn’t going to get a dime from West Sacramento, Sacramento City or County and that’s because we have some of the same problems that Oakland has. The only difference is that we built a state of the art arena and secured the NBA for the next three decades.

    I used to look at Wolfe and Fisher as idiots, but you look at what has happened over the last couple of years. The Warriors left, then the Raiders. The city of Oakland just isn't sustainable for any businesses. Crime is scaring everyone away and there doesn't look to be a light at the end of the tunnel.

      the team will not be sold. Get over it. The value of the team since he bought it went up 400million and if he moved to Vegas and waited 5 years would then be able to sell for multiple billions of dollars. This is how baseball economics works. Thinking otherwise or believing that not attending games or protesting at this point will change anything is just living in denial.

      raiders left because Fisher owns half of the colisium site , and wouldn't negotiate . Fisher used this purchase as a hostage situation. Marc Davis took that free money and ran when it became clear Fisher wasn't compromising . The city of Oakland through grants and other investment only needed about 80 million to fund the 8 billion dollar project, the A's left that on the table last minute for Vegas . If it was just a stadium project, it would be being built now , instead, we got to see how corrupt MLB really is , every owner voted for the move . Oakland got about 100 million more in grants , there is money for rebuilding the colisium site regardless .

    This piece grossly misrepresents the situation with Howard Terminal. The deal was close to getting done with the city providing over $300 million in incentives, but Fisher walked away before they could even finish because Vegas started dangling their own cash incentives, and not even much more. Fisher never wanted to stay in the first place, and poisoned the product over 20 years by being the single cheapest payroll in the majors. The guy is pure scum.

      How has the city of Oakland been for business owners these days? Has Oakland's quality of life been conducive to running a business successfully, especially in a business that depends on the stadium's attendance in order to put a good product on the field? A team's payroll mainly depends on proceeds and profits generated at the stadium, along with city incentives and major sponsors. A good team that can nearly sell out home games and road games will bring in more money by bringing in more fans, more sponsors, more city incentives as a good team is good for local businesses and local economy. I truly doubt the owner would harm his own product, as you said. He was just in a very tough business situation for many years.

      wrong. The economics for an expansion team in the East Bay is simply not there. The Giants have 80% of the territorial rights-basically surrounding Oakland. Small market teams like Oakland are unable to financially compete and field teams with talent that are competitive based on the current economics of baseball. Moreover, the city and county of Oakland and Alameda-despite public comments are hostile to professional sports in their policies and economic incentives.
      Utah, Sacramento, etc are far more likely to get an expansion team for the polar opposite reasons that Oakland can’t..
