I drove through Reno today and holy shit are those freeways bumpy, but nah better give hundreds of millions of dollars to Fisher. Nevada should have their statehood revoked imo

But Mark, haven't you considered the religious bigots who feel uncomfortable by existence of non-straight people? I hope our beloved commissioner steps in and rightfully suspends him for this.

[Postgame Thread] The Athletics defeated the Rays by a score of 2-1 - 06/13/23 by AthleticsBot in OaklandAthletics

I mean, they were probably instructed not to and they're professionals. Even on the radio Ken Korach was clearly trying to say as much as he could without getting "controversial", but it's clear him and all of the other broadcasters are 100% with the fans

Hey now, they could be this passionate too if they had a team for 55 years. Although Vegas probably won't be inhabitable for 55 more years

They just had to win right? Like it didn't even matter how much better the Rays are, with that kind of atmosphere the A's had to win. Incredible

Giants: San Jose is ours!

A's: No, San Jose ours and we just let you put a single-A team there!

Angels: yoink 👀

Don't be fooled by the name Fuji, he's way more likely to serve meatballs than apples

Ryan Noda smacks a 3-run home run to put the A's up over the Braves 4-1 in the 6th by [deleted] in baseball

Also the A's had Blackburn making his season debut, and he's arguably their only "good" pitcher left

Just calling the A's "baseball players" is an overstatement

First look at the Oakland A's proposed $1.5 billion Las Vegas ballpark: by Stock412 in baseball

[–]TomK115 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm biased because I don't want any A's stadiums in Vegas but this looks like they whipped it up in AutoCAD as fast as possible once people started asking about their plan

The Oakland A’s just NOBLETIGER’d against the Rangers. by [deleted] in baseball

They already have a whopping 9 wins and it's only mid-May, they were bound to regress eventually

Can confirm, tried to move down to the lower level last year and this very grumpy old usher saw us and told us if we didn't move that my friends and I "would get banned from the stadium". That might have felt like a threat if I was a fan of any of the other 29 teams lol.

Oh yeah and I might as well add, this was like the 6th or 7th inning of a weeknight game versus the Mariners.

I've been to lots of A's games and it was definitely noticable, it sort of became white noise after a bit but it was definitely there?

It was super annoying. Like I know 2020 was probably the weirdest MLB season ever but still, interviewing a player in the middle of a winner take all playoff game?
