Ha, 5,000.00 plus fans to watch a baseball game in Montreal.
I don't think so.

Oakland does not deserve a Major League franchise.

Maybe this bitter Canuck is right, maybe Oakland does not deserve a Major
League franchise.

But Oakland has three and seems to be loving it.

Now go trade those pelts you spent all winter trapping for a Corey Hart CD
and go listen to it while standing in line for a doctor.

Meanwhile, the good folks of Oakland will occupy themselves enjoying the
teams they have and will continue to have even though they may not deserve
them, you DeGrassi Jr. High dropout.

Actually rather fond of Canadians, but willing to make exceptions.

Funny, you'd think all these neo-Yankee fans had been there "forever".

George, Oakland has higher home attendance in 2004 and 2005 than the
Blue Jays do.

I feel sorry for you but it's not our fault that you are stupid.

Wow some of you Canadian guys are really insecure. We're two months
into our first losing season in at least 5 years, and so far no other
team's fans have been cross posting nonsense like this.

I think I know where the insecurity comes from, having dated some
Canadian guys in the past.

That's not entirely true. Even during the Mets run in the late 80's, the
Yankees were still in the top 5 in AL attendance averaging around 30k a
game. (And that's before the boom of baseball attendance...still very good).
I'm sure there were single-game circumstances that the attendance dropped
into the teens, but not on a consitent basis at all. It wasn't until they
really dropped out of contention in the early 90's (90+ losses two years in
a row) that their attendance hit rock bottom for Yankee
standards....probably low to mid 20's average per game.

Yes.


ps not only should the oakland gays be contracted from MLB, but oakland
itself should be contracted from the United States-just like Rachel,
oakland is absolutley, 100% NOT CLEAN.

I apologize, I clearly need education from the likes of you.

May I presume that, by referring to me as "doorknob", you mean very smart
person who causes you to shudder at the mere thought of my massive
awesomeness?
