Hey @MLB , on Dec 1st the A's cited the deaths of 2 CHP officers for why they didn't release stadium renderings. Now, they admit hiring design team on Dec 4th, indicating they had no renderings. Exploiting such a tragic incident as an excuse raises ethical questions, right?

The A's had originally announced they would reveal renderings on Dec 4th, 2023 (they cancelled the meeting on the 1st, according to @davekaval , because 2 state troopers died). So when did they hire an architect? Aug 4th? May 4th? Nope:

Although 2023 was a tough year as an A’s fan, I am thankful to have met such an amazing group of people. The Oakland A’s fans are some of the most authentic, inspirational and passionate people I’ve ever met and we are excited to tell your story.

@DaveKaval The fans have felt like this has been ownerships’ view for the past 20+ years. This is why we stopped coming, this is why we protest and this is why it won’t end no matter where the A’s end up. Your disrespect towards Oakland has started a fire that won’t be put out.

Good for the Ballers. By taking a historic field and reinvigorating it, while still keeping it open to the public the Ballers are showing their care and desire to be a part of this community and part of building it up to make Oakland great.

A new soccer team has come into the picture in the East Bay called The Town FC. This team is being run by a former owner of The Roots, Benno Nagel, who left on very bad terms with the team. It could be surmised that The Town FC is looking to overtake The Roots foothold on Oakland

We then remembered our conversation at the owners meeting with Fisher when he admitted to going to check out that practice field at the same time the Roots were checking it out. But why would John Fisher want a soccer practice field in Oakland when his soccer team is in San Jose

@EduOverStadiums ⁩ is picking up steam, thanks in part to A’s ownership. Will this effect the relocation vote of any owners? Will this make it on the ballot? Would love to hear your opinions.

And where would that leave Oakland and The Roots?  The Roots would have to compete with a minor league soccer team, while having both their practice field and stadium plans pulled from under them. And Oakland sports would have John Fisher once again in charge of their destiny.

This is hilarious. So their big reveal is the original AI art, that has no relevancy to the project… yep that’s the A’s leadership. Imagine paying $125 for that. For FanFest we should have a “public” hearing for $125 a ticket where @Timblonskee will release more A’s renderings.

Tomorrow the brother of John Fisher, Bob, will be at a public event for SFMOMA. Would be a great opportunity to have the Fisher family see firsthand the SELL movement. We won’t be able to attend but if anyone does please take some pics and videos. We’d love to use in the doc

For those interested, Fisher’s brother Bob Fisher will be at a public meeting on Thursday. He is on the board for the SFMOMA. Since he is supposed to be helping finance the LV ballpark, I think some of us should go there and ask him some tough questions!

It appears that the difference between what Oakland offered and what the A's wanted was about $35 million or so over three years. Or about the same that the Angels are paying reliever Robert Stephenson. Meanwhile, owners overseeing an industry worth many tens of billions of

@RepBarbaraLee The best way for you to make an impact on this is to pick up where you left off last year with the anti-trust legislation. Teams shouldn’t be allowed to just pick up and leave fan bases behind. Please reignite the drive to strike down baseballs antitrust laws

@Nate_Miley The longer you sit in silence the more culpable and guilty you look. Tell the people of Oakland why you keep delaying the votes on The Roots. We’ve looked at your campaign contributions and there doesn’t seem to be a shadier person on the Alameda Board of Supervisors.

In our research for the doc we’ve come across something that feels pretty FISHY going on with the county board of supervisors. We looked into why the county keeps stalling The Roots progress both at the Coliseum and for the practice field they are looking to purchase. Read on…
