They hear it at the box office, when they average 4,000 paying fans a
game.

Then, they use it as an excuse to move to a more lucrative market.

THAT would be good business sense, so maybe that's what they're up to.
They must have realized that they have no chance to be lucratively
successful in Oakland/Bay Area, so they're going to move.

This sucks.

It is a lucrative market. It was a lucrative market when the team was good
(88-90) and fans could invest emotionally with the team knowing that the
good players were going to be a round a while. But Jesus Mary and Joseph,
that was so long ago now. Since then we have seen the OAKLAND COLISEUM
ripped to ribbons with Mt Davis while the Giants had Bonds and Pac Bell or
whatever they call it now. The Giants with a shitty team have outdrawn the
A's, for many reasons. I still think the A's are reeling from loss of
players like Tejada and Giambi, Hudson, and more recently Haren and now
Harden and fan fave Swisher... it just keeps on this way. It's hard to stay
a fan if they don't care to keep the players why should the fans keep the
team?
