MightyMouse07 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 And the coliseum is a dump. No question. But you know you’re getting real fans who are there for the game and not the theme park attraction like in a lot of newer stadiums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I 100% agree with the bolded , is it really? If it's so lucrative and "working out" why did Money Ball have to be created? Why do they if in the 8th largest market have to swap out players about to get paid large contracts, like underwear? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That has more to do with cheap ownership. Owners don’t want to spend all that extra money. A’s have been profitable each year. A’s have a plan and are working on finalizing a deal for a ballpark in Oakland. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.athleticsnation.com/platform/amp/2018/11/28/18116404/oakland-as-new-ballpark-stadium-howard-terminal-coliseum The city is working with them but is not going to get bent over like we see happen with a lot of cities in stadium deals.
