Looks like the A’s followed us into the desert.
I get why the city prioritized the A’s over the Raiders - 81 games vs 8. But it was a big mistake, because I feel it’s become obvious that Davis was actually negotiating with Oakland in good faith while that was never the case with the A’s.
I still root for the Raiders as hard as I did when they were in LA and Oakland, but the Vegas thing is sad. It’s gonna wind up like the Phoenix market - oversaturated with teams that mostly don’t draw and don’t have any national appeal. Raiders in Oakland was special.
“ROoTeD iN OaKLanD”
Not an As fan so idk how to feel. As long as those dudes find another place that’s not allegiant for 2-3 years, it’s alright ig. The next generation of oakland natives will maybe start rooting for San Francisco teams which sucks though.
Fuck the A’s bro
They gonna fk us Dodgers fans out here from watching them over here. 🤦🏽♂️👎🏽
🖕 screw the A’s
Fuck John Fisher. Not following the A’s to Vegas like I did with the Raiders. Mark Davis might not be the best owner but you know he loves the Raiders and its fans. Fisher doesn’t care about the team or the fans, just wants to make the most money while doing the bare minimum.
Raiders leave, I follow.
A’s leave, good fucking riddance.
Even at their worst, the raiders wanted to win. The A’s just want your money and won’t keep a team together. Fuck them forever and always
Us? Many of us are stilll rooted in Oakland.
If Mark was smart he’d fire Josh McDaniels.
Fuck John Fisher entitled piece of shit
Rooted in Oakland My Ass
Fkn lame, I don’t even follow baseball but why do they gotta tag along.
As a former A’s fan that used to bleed green and gold until they literally ruined baseball for me, I look forward to seeing that empty stadium. The Vegas A’s will fail, nobody will give a shit about them. How removed from reality do you have to be to think they can fill that stadium for 81 games?
I feel bad for the players and coaches, butt fuck John Fisher. Nothing will make me happier than watching this fail.
stadium gonna be filled with some of Nevada’s most degenerate gamblers
Sorry about your loss, but I think they will just do fine in LV and probably better from the business side. Even if they suck.
LV is a huge tourist spot, and away fans will fill it up.
I’m not for the move. I have family in Oakland, and they are super upset.
How many people do you think are going to fly to Vegas to watch their team play on a random Wednesday?
I mean that would definitely be the spot to do it.
You act like people don’t go to Vegas on a whim. Lol.
I hope the Athletics brand stays in Oakland. I realized it didn’t start in Oakland, but I feel dead with them moving to LV. Like others I followed Raiders there despite wanting them to stay in oakland. Rather than repeat what most said, I’ll just go upvote them. Fuck fisher
