Can’t really compare the attendances of coliseum with Candlestick, the Stick wasn’t as easy accessible and didn’t have the great teams that won 4-WS championships. However, look at the attendance numbers and there isn’t incredible differences like there is today.

Don’t be silly, the ballot measures for the Giants stadium in SJ did not pass due to poor campaigning. The residents of SJ were foolish not to vote for the stadium measure, but I’m sure they will not make the same mistake again. I have no doubt the SJ would vote favorably for any MLB baseball stadium measure today.

Let’s get a couple of things straight, I was a Giants fan until their ownership has made it clear that they didn’t want the A’s moving to SJ. Giants’ ownership should do what’s right for MLB and the City of San Jose. I have no doubt SAN JOSE can be a very successful major league baseball city, and it turns me off that the greedy Giants’ ownership has the audacity to prevent it given how the got the SCC territorial rights in the first place. I hope Bud Selig grows some balls and does what’s right for the league, the A’s, and the City of San Jose! I have no doubt the citizens of the South Bay will embrace the A’s if they move down here, that’s why Larry Baer and the rest of his greedy bastards want to prevent it. I have no doubt the Giants want to become the GS Warriors of the MLB where they are the only show in the Bay Area.

The BAY AREA is definitively a two team market, but the Giants want to squeeze the A’s out of here. I hope it doesn’t happen and hope the A’s find a new home in the Bay Area. I wish the Oakland well because they’re in a bad position with the possibly of losing all 3 professional sports teams. The irony is the team that gets the best fan support in Oakland is the GS Warrior, and they’re leaving for greener pasture in SF. I think it’s totally weird considering Oakland isn’t making any attempt or complaining to fight the move, and didn’t they invest a lot of money to renovate the Oracle about 10 years ago? It’s funny because the W’s haven’t been significant since the days of Run TMC, and they still get great attendance every year. Please don’t bring up the nonsense of the “We Believe” season because it was essentially a team that broke even in the win and loss column and backed into the the playoffs. The W’s then got lucky against a coach Nelson’s Dallas team in the first round of the playoffs and were quickly dismissed in the second round. That’s what happen when fans are desperate for a winner, they go with anything!

I’m not trying to spread the Giants’ propaganda because I dislike the ownership for being so greedy! I want the A’s to move to the SJ, but I don’t think it will happen due to all the TR bullshit! I’m happy with the Niners coming to SC, the new stadium for the Quakes, and my Sharks! I will follow the A’s regardless if they stay in Oakland, just want them to stay in the Bay Area. I just hope the East Bay fans would start supporting the A’s team with a very rich history, especially right now. It’s a special team that has surprised the baseball world, and they’re only getting 20K for a weekend series against the Red Sox. It’s very sad considering they’re 3-games out of first place and on a 9-game winning streak, come on Bay Area fans and support this team!
