    3:53 thank you for finally showing the true Oakland Coliseum, and how it look for most of its years when hosting the Oakland A’s, who were a championship franchise in the 70s and late 80s. Mount Davis ruined that place.

    The lack of care for the job of Supervisor and Mayor and City Council can be held accountable for the policies to happen. The Location for the the Athletic Village was perfect. The administration of this valuable asset was a DISASTER. EVERY POSSIBLE MISTAKE HAS BEEN MADE.....GOOD LORD!!!!

    I've been an OAKLAND A's fan since I was in Little League in the '70s my first ever major league game was the Boston Redsox vs the Oakland Athletics, Living Near Sacramento it was a short drive to the Alameda County Coliseum. Couldn't they refurbish the ballpark instead of trying to build at the Port Of Oakland? I am sure that remodeling the stadium would cost less than building and New Ballpark would. I hate to think of the A's moving to LAS VAGAS I am 62 years old now and I get the MLBTV package just to watch the A's games, I now live near Seattle and I am NOT going to become a Seattle Mariners Fan.

    I love this video, amazing job. I support the Athletics ownership, they have been trying to build a new stadium for ages. The City of Oakland government is a joke and the crime is rising like crazy. The reason why the Athletics cut down all the perks they created a couple of years ago is because they are making the effort to stay but the government of Oakland is refusing to do jack shit. Also I will call out Athletics fans, who don't show up. Back in 2018 and 2019 during the "golden time", fans were not showing up. I would go to 75 percent of the home games and nobody ever came. The only time they did was for the Giants and the 2019 wildcard game. The City of Oakland government is by far the worst I have ever seen, even compared to the San Francisco.
