      @@No1CaresWorkHarderBih The world is most often not black and white. There are times when ideologies must bend to the force of reality. I’ve seen the civic benefits to being an NFL city; hosting games, playoffs, and Super Bowls. I’ve seen the benefit of having a massive venue for concerts and other events. I’ve seen first hand how a city can enhance its standing as a vacation destination by being on Monday Night Football. I’ve seen the civic pride when a team simply makes it to a Super Bowl. I’ve seen the jobs created and the identity of a region enhanced by being an NFL city. So I also appreciate the need for local governments to partner with teams to build and maintain venues. It’s reality in most cases. The SoFi situation in LA is a clear outlier. Most cities don’t have the revenue generating power that the few super cities do that would allow teams to build their own stadiums independently and without partnerships with local municipalities, who also benefit greatly from the mutual efforts.

Well, they're not. They're MY team and if you don't buy enough tickets....I'll move the team again to some other city."

    The end of Oakland sports is truly the end of the Bay Area raucousness. Warriors and Giants games are dominated by corporate fans (or when the teams suck, nobody). Oracle Arena on the other hand was the loudest place I’ve seen a hoops game. Niners games don’t have the intensity they did at the Stick (and certainly not like the Raiders at the Coliseum). The Sharks have a great arena and fanbase, but hockey hasn’t yet had a huge jump in the Bay.
    I was there for the WC game in 2019 - I know this one ain’t on the fans. I was a Raiders ticket holder until they moved. I will miss losing my mind at the Coliseum until the Roots find a way to bring it back.

    Thanks, Brodie and Bip. You gentlemen are a class act. I saw my first A's game in 1971 (Vida's 20th win) and have been going to games even since, including today. I didn't think today would be as painful as it was. When Stomper entered through centerfield and John Fogerty's song started playing, it really hit me. I could easily write a book about my memories of the A's and the Coliseum, from being a fan to covering the team and interviewing Billy Martin, but when the game ended, I didn't like baseball anymore. I'm not sure if I'll watch the game again. After more than 50 years of playing the game, writing about the game, reporting on the game, and just plain being a fan, I feel terribly betrayed and let down. Maybe I will reconsider, but for now, I'm done.😢

    My sports heart goes out to the fans of Oakland, you’ve had all of your Major League teams leave your community.
    Hopefully one day you’ll have community leaders and owners working together rather than against one another.
    I believe owners should build and maintain their stadiums and that communities should never ever be held holding the basket.
    My wish is that no community loses there teams unless it’s mutual! Fans will always pay the emotional price in the end!

Got to see Catfish, Vida, Campy, Sal, Blue Moon Odom, Rudi. it was amazing. Saw the night STEW got his his 20th win in four consecutive seasons. Yelled to Jose Canseco while he was in outfield, next inning home run, he looked at me, and when he got up to bat he did. Saw Miggy get his first 200th hit in a season. Loved Big Mac. ECK. Carnage. Steiny. My God, what did this owner do to my team & my memories. SO sad, now I am bitter and mad. All owners voted to move out of OAKLAND. I will not watch ANY MLB games anymore. I just don't care.

    My first time to the Coliseum I was eight years old and it was April of 1968, NY vs Oak. Micky Mantle homered in the first and the A's walked it off in 11. My parents were from Philly and their first date was an A's game in 1948. My Mom's first time to Shibe Park was 1936, her all time favorite A's player was Wally Moses. My parents also attended the Heidi Game. My brother worked for the organization at the Coliseum in the mid 80's to mid 90's. By that time I had moved to Alaska, but I always made it down to the Coliseum for World Series and Grateful Dead New Years runs. I snuck into the 89 World Series by going through the front office with my brother, shaking Sandy Alderston's hand along the way (the Haas family, now those were owners). I raised two A's fans in Alaska by being their LL & HS BB coach/umpire and taking them to a week of Spring Training games every March for a decade 96 to 06. A favorite memory being Mohamed Ali patting my son on the head and giving him an autograph on Barry Zito's leg on the cover of the program while he entered an A's Spring Training game in the 2nd inning to a standing ovation, that and all the foul balls and autographs. I've watched damn near every A's game since streaming has been a thing, and before that we used to get the A's on TV sometimes on Sundays, the highlight being watching Dallas Braden's perfect game with my son or taking both my young kids to the Bar to watch the 20 wins in a row. I took off work for Game 162. I made my last trip to the Coliseum in May, for the Texas series, finishing off with a Double Header sitting in Sec. 119 at the top of the A's tunnel. Now all of that has to come to an end because of one man. FJF
