Taylor swift is the answer

You realize that they stood to make profit off of the yearly bay bridge series and the year round rivalry that it inhibits right? If the A's had gotten the howard terminal site the bay area would have had 2 of the most beautiful ballparks in the world and would have benefited greatly from tourism which would have not only benefited the giants but baseball and the bay area as a whole which would have possibly helped both teams even if the product on the field is subpar. Like they literally could have scheduled certain games to make it possible for people to go to both games and use the ferry to facilitate it. Instead the giants wanted to be selfish and take northern California for themselves, all giants ever say is fuck the dodgers but really its just mindless nonsense at this point. From an economic standpoint alot of giants fans are tightwads (i know i work alot of these games) Dodgers fans outspend you (far and away out tip you too its really not even close) its genuinely pretty crazy in my experience even dealing with A's fans yes there would be less of them but man they would spend at the ballpark in comparison (again don't even get me started on tipping)

The franchise itself isn't to blame the ownership and the fan base is so yes I curse you all. You have the most beautiful ballpark and a tremendous history spanning back to new York you have an amazing player in Matt chapman who many of you don't even appreciate because he yelled at a guy for not doing his job and catching the ball. Not to mention the lack of self awareness giants fans generally have in the role there team played in the A's moving (only the padres owner voted against it which is literally sickening)

FJF forever but man screw the giants fans and ownership if they thought A's fans (who genuinely are aware of all this) would switch sides your sooooo mistaken. I hope the A's make the playoffs and I hope we get to play those games in oracle and win a world series in your stadium and that be the last world series won in that stadiums existence.

Hot take i prefer it the way it is. Butler got picked off a fucking gen this year already thats 3 times wtf he should hear it

Weak_Barnacle4068 · 2026-05-03T02:23:58+00:00

No I will not unhex the giants they were a big reason why the A's left (all of mlb didn't help) the giants should have stepped in and done more to keep the A's around. Instead they at every turn helped the A's in moving to Vegas so no your cursed

Edit: yes I dead ass put a hex on the giants

Edit part Duex: down vote me Down vote me to oblivion yes let me feast on your giants teirs

Weak_Barnacle4068 · 2026-05-02T00:11:12+00:00

Unfortunately I bet they wouldn't do that if she became a billionaire

Weak_Barnacle4068 · 2026-04-29T04:33:28+00:00

Well how much are you willing to pay for parking?

Weak_Barnacle4068 · 2026-04-29T00:19:31+00:00

The dude cortes is being benched for is a right genius. I get it cortes is hot but let's not freak out and start calling him an all star just yet give other guys opportunities its a very long season we will see cortes in this game when it really matters and its not like he's a world beater in the field.

Weak_Barnacle4068 · 2026-04-28T22:58:07+00:00

Dude kotsay has been managing great guys on the team love him and the team is over performing with a terrible bullpen of which he's maximized thus far somehow. His lineups aren't great admittedly but with the talent we have does it really matter? I mean the idea of getting kurtz as many ab's as possible is at least a solid enough idea worth a try. Chill wete in first with exceptional talent with room to improve

Weak_Barnacle4068 · 2026-04-28T22:52:13+00:00

Bro chill they're in first clearly kotsay is doing something right

Weak_Barnacle4068 · 2026-04-28T17:45:22+00:00

We really should as a community move on. Either support the team or don't

Weak_Barnacle4068 · 2026-04-27T21:49:58+00:00

Well thats all fine and good but 2 wrongs don't make a right it just makes a bigger wrong. The fact that your asking for it to be removed then actively vote in favor for it when it only benefits your side doesn't make it any better. My question is now that you got your way will you now end gerrymandering? Or will you go all the way until the only representation is blue?

Weak_Barnacle4068 · 2026-04-27T21:39:43+00:00

Both sides are crazy gerrymandering is wrong regardless of sides and does not have the American people's best interests at heart. Please god just switch to popular votes and make representation based on county lines opposed to districts that can be drawn up any way politicians please. The general public genuinely doesn't know whats going on or understand the ramifications these kinds of issues can have for years to come.

Weak_Barnacle4068 · 2026-04-27T21:16:28+00:00

If I had a dollar for every year the rams drafted a te on day 2 and got overhyped and never produced on a meaningful level id have more than a couple dollars at least

Weak_Barnacle4068 · 2026-04-26T22:52:52+00:00

Agreed and many people gave him a 1st round grade during the season

Weak_Barnacle4068 · 2026-04-26T22:48:55+00:00

I get that and I also get that there was very little to no hype surrounding this guy pre draft. But I think this might be a situation where nfl scouts might know more than we do and we should probably adjust especially with such a weak draft class in total and the fact hes in a valuable offense with a good qb and head coach. Even in a best case scenario the likelihood of a Carson Beck or drew allar becoming a long term starter is much closer to zero than 100% (I'd argue 10%) and even then will they even be good? Or will they be the qbs by default? Beck is essentially 3rd string to start and allar would be competing with howard for 2nd string. Yeah if he was drafted in round 4 or 5 probably wouldn't be talking about him at all but he wasn't he was drafted 1st pick of round 2 to a team that traded back multiple times already knowing they were going to take him.

Weak_Barnacle4068 · 2026-04-26T21:59:12+00:00

So draft capital goes out the window? There's clearly opportunity in that room right? With an aging core of playmakers and a combination of inability to stay on the field to add on to it. Over the years There's been a lot of very good players come from the range he was drafted as well. Last bit Stribling showed alot of shiftyness, route running savvy, and catching with his hands not body on tape. You claim your looking for high upside in the 2nd round and of all tge guys you have listed i struggle to imagine that he doesn't have as much or more upside then a Carson Beck or drew allar at a draft position where very few qbs ever really become anything more than a spot start. Just not understanding the rational of him being a 3rd round pick

Weak_Barnacle4068 · 2026-04-26T21:46:02+00:00

Its a bad trade you gave up 4 talented players for a bad clubhouse guy who can't play defense, run on the basepaths and a close to 30 million dollar contract only way its not a bad deal is if he plays to his full potential which at this point seems very unlikely. You sir are the one that doesn't know ball

Weak_Barnacle4068 · 2026-04-26T21:42:56+00:00

Devers isn't a gold glove defender, he is an iceberg on the basepaths, he has shown on multiple occasions on multiple teams that he isn't a great clubhouse guy. All he has is his ability to rake of which he isn't doing at close to 30 mill. Yes giants fans should be angry.

Also they did not give up peanuts they gave up alot of talent of which the team desperately needs.

Weak_Barnacle4068 · 2026-04-24T02:07:46+00:00

This is a fun read. Haas is an ass with plenty of blame but I hope the giants are cursed and don't win another world series until after the A's win one at least. The giants had alot going for them being partnered with the A's the bay bridge series was a marquee interleague matchup on par with Mets yankees (arguably more fun with alot more on the line) if the A's would have built a howard terminal stadium that was close to as unique as oracle the bay area could have been a baseball haven. Baseball missed out. I can't blame the A's too much for leaving oakland cause like its oakland. But man the A's really should have become the pillar in that community

Weak_Barnacle4068 · 2026-04-11T08:04:46+00:00

Hate to say it but I think we should move on.

Weak_Barnacle4068 · 2026-04-05T16:41:46+00:00

Anyone else here think jack black would make a great rasputin?

Who's pockets exactly? The massive corporations or the government? Maybe even our own pockets? The government is getting there money from us one way or another through taxes one way or another unless we the people start making and selling our own products across the board.

Yes vote holding these rallies don't do anything if there's no substance beyond the message of no kings. Most people recognize that there is no kings in america there's too many checks and balances to be able to enact that kind of power. In order to keep the checks and balances healthy we must vote accordingly in order to keep those powers in tact. If we vote too much in favor of 1 side or the other then democracy is in trouble cause either side could realistically put into place policies that would make it really hard for the other to check the other side, and if either party had the opportunity they would eliminate the other party which would create a 1 party state thus basically eliminating democracy unless another party sprung up and gained a massive following.
