Yea I know, and even the A's broadcast on radio said that. But then again, it's not MY fault the twinkies blow a 10 run lead. It's rare the A's scored a Touchdown in the 7th inning.

The A's said they were glad it wasn't football and there was no instant replay!

Actually about 11,000. You should have seen my facebook friends all go nuts though on their status bar.

Only here in the East Bay. It's all SF Giants because they came first.

Interesting how the A's started in Whale's city, then moved to my city, then moved to roller's city.
By the way the A's are nothing, and their stadium is a bigger joke than they are.

I don't see how the A's are nothing when we helped the White Sox for the 3 game series! They gained a couple games on those Twinkies.
Not sure why they moved, but I do remember when the Coliseum was new in teh 60s is why it lured them away from KC. They sucked in KC and had alot of really good and really bad years in Philly. At least I have history compared to those lousy SF Giants.
I also got those Dodgers sticking with my LA background in Lakers and Bruins.
The A's are the home team, but the Dodgers are the family team. I have too much Southern Cal family that I can't hate LA like most northern Cali people.

haha, that's right about the A's being in all of our cities... roller and I share the Warriors too!
and that Oakland Coliseum is a joke... any foul ball is an out with the amount of foul territory they have... insane... seats along the first baseline are supposed to be good, not a mile away from 1st base!

I know it sucks, but it's originally a football stadium. Don't blame me.

It's Al Davis' fault. He had to move the Raiders back to Oakland and make the stadium a joke. But why aren't the A's making much progress and building a new ballpark? The field is way too big, haha

Al Davis was brilliant in his day, but now he just needs to retire or die, haha!

Hey.. don't make McNair references. Davis is still more successful than other owners and I don't see why people just bash him always. I believe in Cable.

Davis was good 20-30 years ago. He's not good anymore. And he almost looks as old as John Wooden.

Hello? Has anyone not forgotten of that superbowl appearance in 2002? We had that AFC West Dynasty from 2000-2002. I don't think that was 20-30 years ago.

Al Davis shouldn't be getting credit. That Raider offense did the work. After that Super Bowl appearance Al made them worse.
