A Place To Talk About Giants Baseball

Oakland A-ow ’bout I get you Later?

Posted in Uncategorized by Flavor on May 20, 2020

I know there are other things to worry about in the world but the Oakland A’s not paying their rent is one of the most astounding and outrageous *bad looks* I’ve seen in a while. To me, this is just as bad as the Lakers taking 4.6 million in small business stimulus funding.

Oakland will probably pay up now because it went public.

    The man who owns the A’s and has for some time is John Fisher, son of the two individuals who founded Gap. He’s worth $2 billion. the idea they are in too poor a market to pay their better players (or the rent) and deserved revenue sharing all those years is nonsense.

      No shit…whiny-assed billionaires complaining while my daughter had to shut-down her very successful salon, and has gotten NO stimulus money. Fuck those fucking fucks.

    The A’s usually make things interesting.

    I don’t know where the city of Oakland typically appropriates the 1.2 million but I’m guessing something important to the city doesn’t get funded because of this selfish petty move by the A’s

    testing is really ramping up at the Stanford facility I took a picture of a couple of weeks ago. I just drove by I bet there are a hundred people there getting tested right now

    The City of Oakland/Alameda County Joint Powers Authority that owns and runs the E Coli is a joke. The Raiders fleeced em and the a’s, who fought hard to but failed to stop the reconfiguration of the stadium when the silver and black returned in the 90s, learned their lesson. Now the a’s will fleece em.

    Sports leagues should have the option of removing owners as the As have been beset by poor ownership for a long while and just give the team to Larry Ellison…the Giants claiming the south bay for territorial rights is also bullsheit…

      so mlb should have the power to take a franchise away from a shitty owner and give it to another shitty owner, but mlb shouldn’t have the power to assign territories to the shitty owners?

    You better catch up mustard.
    So, did I miss what card was under the ketchup bottle? I picked Sarge, but maybe Sandiggity Claus sent out yet another card of the Catfish Hunter of Woodland Little League to Loo.

      It was the Diggity card, Bozo.
      At the time I took the picture, it hadn’t been revealed yet.
      Sorry…

        Thanks, Loo. I missed that.
