      Have you checked to see if there is anything in the state law that might require a sale? Columbus Crew dealt with this a few years ago. There was an obscure state law that required a team in a tax supported stadium to be offered for sale for 6 months before relocation. Nobody was aware of this at the time. Ended up forcing a sale and saving the club. I know nothing about California law, but it really would be worth looking into.

      Good luck with that! Sports are a business and nothing else. That's the reason I stopped watching a couple of years before the plandemic. They don't care about current fans because people are mindless and they will go in the new city LV becuase all people care about is entertainment. Look at the name of these stadiums. They are all named after banks. The entertaining part to me is wathcing a bunch of drunk overweight people cheer for atheltic people that make more money in a year (to act) than they do in their whole life. It's quite sad if I'm being honest.

    I have no care one way or the other if the As move, but there's always something about crowds showing up, chanting, trying to start a thing, and showing their support - especially for a positive cause - that always gets me a little choked up. That unity of the underdogs still trying to keep this thing alive is really great to see. I've seen documentaries about the Dodgers, my home team, when they left Brooklyn - and one thing they always point out is the loyalty of the old fans. This right here is very reminiscent of that and it must hurt even more since Oakland has already lost their 2 other teams so recently. I don't know how I want this thing to end up, but you can't say that the Oakland fans don't still have some fight in them.

    11:15 - The guy taking a picture in the background, over the interviewee's left shoulder, is Michael Zagaris. He's the team's photographer, but also a lot more than that, his body of work of many decades is nothing short of amazing. Not only classic sport images of bay area teams, Walsh and Montana of the 49ers, but he documented the rock and roll scene of the 1960s and 70s. Some of the most iconic music, concert images are ones he has captured. Worth a deep dive into his work.

    The first recorded Wave occurred in Oakland at an Athletics' playoff game against the New York Yankees on Oct. 15, 1981.
    It was organized and led by professional cheerleader Krazy George Henderson and was seen by a national TV audience and captured on film.... Crazy George Henderson is now 79 years old . ..../ In the U.K. and the rest of the world The Wave is called the "Mexican Wave" because viewers across the globe first noticed it in televised games of the 1986 World Cup from Mexico. .... /

    I travel a lot for work, and spent a lot of time in San Francisco in 2009. I went to a couple of A's games when I was there. Easy trip on the BART from my hotel to the Colosseum and it was $5 tickets. I had fun at the games, and I still wear the A's cap I got there. Moving teams to tourist spots will become more common. The owners get to charge more for tickets. They don't care about the fans, it's only about the money, and that's sad.

    I have mixed feelings about the A's leaving. They are a historic franchise, that belonged to a historic sports city for so long. But they also held the coliseum site hostage for over a decade. When the Raiders wanted to build a new stadium at that site, the A's suckered the city into a new lease that made that effort impossible. All the while, even back then, they had no intentions of building a new stadium or staying in Oakland. I feel awful for the fans, but I hope the owners continue to suffer with low attendance when they do move to vegas.

      Good luck with that! Sports are a business and nothing else. That's the reason I stopped watching a couple of years before the plandemic. They don't care about current fans because people are mindless and they will go in the new city LV becuase all people care about is entertainment. Look at the name of these stadiums. They are all named after banks. The entertaining part to me is wathcing a bunch of drunk overweight people cheer for atheltic people that make more money in a year (to act) than they do in their whole life. It's quite sad if I'm being honest.

    As a Dodgers fan, I remember ownership during the Frank McCourt era. Guy was in so much debt and he leveraged the parking lot revenue to fund his lifestyle while the team suffered. In Oakland the owner was reverse Moneyball - trading away the best players for inexpensive prospects to save payroll. Disgusting indeed!

    As a lifelong SF Giants fan, I do not want to see the A’s leave the Bay Area (or California). Giants fans have been through this twice. Once in the 70’s when the previous ownership (Horace Stoneham) was going to sell the team to a group that would have moved the Giants to Toronto (Toronto Giants? Don’t like the sound of that). Former SF mayor Mascone asked Bob Lurie to buy the team (he did). Then 2 decades later, Lurie wanted to sell the team and he was going to sell them to a Tampa businessman (so they can move to Tampa Bay). However, Safeway chairman Peter Magowan decided to form an ownership group (with Larry Baer) to buy the team for $100 million dollars. Giants stayed and built their current park (Oracle Park) in the heart of San Francisco.
    Not only would seeing the A’s leave the Bay Area be a blow to fans, but it would hurt the Bay Area immensely. Now if they wanted to move to Sacramento, I would have no problem with that (even though the A’s should stay in Oakland).
    This whole entire event was wild to see.
