San Jose would have been ideal if the Giants didn't throw a hissy fit.

Should move back to Philly until the Vegas stadium is ready.

Who cares as long as you get paid the same.

The Raiders bailed on the city. TWICE.


How is that Oakland's problem when Al Davis was notorious for having his hand out for public money?

When the A’s, Warriors, and Raiders (twice) leave, there is a common denominator there.

I've been to that Sacramento stadium.
I don't recall it being even 14k capacity.
Maybe they added seats since I last went many years ago.
Not a bad location though

Eta: I looked it up. It has 10k seats. They say 14k capacity counting lawn and standing area. Lol

To be fair, the current players are saying the same thing about the Coliseum, with its current conditions.

Should’ve done a barnstorming tour and played at venues all over the country. Build up a national fan base, as that is much of who will come see them in Vegas.

Have you seen the city of Oakland lately? Makes Memphis and Mobile, AL look like paradise

I haven't seen Oakland, but I've seen them trade or sell anyone who made or was about to make significant money

Vegas mayor already said they don’t want the A’s.

Sutter health park. I imagine they could fill that up every night. The marlins have about 2500 ppl show up at their games.
