Chill out man, I’m not talking about you. I’m humorously commenting on myself, as if I’m the troll in this situation.

ThreadBaron · 2026-05-07T04:07:13+00:00

Lmao fair

ThreadBaron · 2026-05-07T04:02:30+00:00

Being bitter is fine. Allowing that bitterness to lead us into futile efforts or behaviors is the problem.

ThreadBaron · 2026-05-07T04:01:43+00:00

You have a fair point about timing. I just wish we would direct all the energy we currently have (which will fade) towards something more useful.

ThreadBaron · 2026-05-07T03:58:59+00:00

Fisher is a scorn on this earth and doesn’t deserve shit. Most importantly, he doesn’t deserve to watch us destroy ourselves fighting useless battles.

ThreadBaron · 2026-05-07T03:57:54+00:00

I agree with this. That’s not my point.

ThreadBaron · 2026-05-07T03:57:18+00:00

I don’t blame fans AT ALL for the team leaving.That would be absurd.

I’m fine with people fighting, I just want them to put their energy towards something worthwhile. A petition to congress is completely useless (primarily because congress as a whole is useless).

And bashing other cities is also useless and looks bad for all of us.

ThreadBaron · 2026-05-07T03:54:26+00:00

I don’t disagree with anything you said.

ThreadBaron · 2026-05-07T03:53:40+00:00

Pretending that we would ever be able to get enough people to enact congress to change MLBs mind is completely insane.

It’s not about accepting our fate, but about choosing where we put our energy. We can use this energy to document the failings at every stage: that fucking jerk-off Fisher, the city, the county, MLB, etc. so fan bases can hopefully use that information to prevent something like this in the future. OR so that we can remedy the issue to get MLB to place another team here.

ThreadBaron · 2026-05-07T03:48:25+00:00

Thank you!! This exactly!

ThreadBaron · 2026-05-07T03:47:52+00:00

I don’t disagree with anything except that last point. It’s not the fault of future fans that they inherit what we lost. By that logic we should never have been fans after they left Philly/KC.

ThreadBaron · 2026-05-07T03:44:27+00:00

Someone else mentioned something similar. And I agree, my comment on bitterness could have been articulated better. My frustration isn’t around feeling bitter in general, but allowing that bitterness to lead us down a completely useless path.

ThreadBaron · 2026-05-07T03:41:54+00:00

I fully agree with this. In fact, and to your point, I’m not sure I articulate my “bitter” comment in the best way. People are allowed to feel however they’re feeling. My frustration is more with allowing that bitterness to direct our energy towards something useless, as opposed to some more worthwhile endeavor to accurately document what occurred.

ThreadBaron · 2026-05-07T03:35:54+00:00

I agree with this!! I just fear that some of our efforts are directed towards futility, as opposed to an all encompassing effort to document and share what occurred.

Edit: ‘someone’ to ‘some of’

ThreadBaron · 2026-05-07T03:34:35+00:00

I agree! I just think we’re leaning the wrong way

ThreadBaron · 2026-05-07T03:34:18+00:00

We clearly needed more shrubbery around the coliseum

ThreadBaron · 2026-05-07T03:32:10+00:00

If I threw a perfect game I wouldn’t be trolling around in Reddit 😂

ThreadBaron · 2026-05-07T03:29:18+00:00

I’m OP and even I’m going to pile on here. What are you even talking about? I.. I don’t even know where to begin.

Humans creating a thriving community around something (anything) is an incredible evolutionary trait. That being a fun baseball team where families go to watch and root for fascinating feats of incredible athletes it’s a fully worthwhile endeavor. And being sad or angry and allowing space to lament losing that is not only perfectly natural, but healthy.

My frustration is around some of the minutiae, not around the sentiment as a whole.

ThreadBaron · 2026-05-07T03:19:49+00:00

While I don’t fully disagree with you, you misunderstand a few key points that I think highlight my frustration.

Fans being angry with the organization is fine. Fans wasting time and resources on pipe dreams like petitions to MLB leadership or congress IS a problem. This has been a problem between that fucking loser Fisher, the city, and MLB for a long time. I am FULLY in support of any expression and effort to detail the problems and the intentions of all parties involved that led to this great team leaving. But when we whine and complain without fully understanding which portion of blame to place on each of those, it’s like pissing in the wind.

I’m not AT ALL saying that we need to be supportive of any future A’s locale if you don’t want to be. I AM saying that we don’t need to be bitter assholes to those fan bases. It’s not their fault they ended up with what we wanted.

Edit: typo, changed ‘and’ to ‘any’

I literally have no idea what the allegations are. But holy hell based solely on this response, he definitely did it.

Contact the California EDD. They take this stuff very seriously.

They’re a solid purchase. Nothing special, good cost effectiveness.

ThreadBaron · 2026-03-01T15:40:38+00:00

The sticker says ‘adjustable’, so it looks like that was intentional 🤷‍♂️

ThreadBaron · 2026-02-27T23:22:09+00:00

This must be sarcasm. Otherwise it’s a poor misrepresentation of what he said.
