Apparently they’ll present or discuss both Howard Terminal and the Coliseum as potential future sites. So far I haven’t heard about any plans to use the Coliseum land to help fund Howard Terminal.

Pretty surreal for as long as this team seemed desperate (and destined) to get out of town for Fremont/SJ/Wherever that they may really be the one team left standing in Oakland. As an opposing fan, Oakland is one of the few other fan bases I genuinely wish well for (you’re good baseball fans and have gotten the shaft more times than I can count). Good luck.
