She growls as she storms the stadium
A villain mean and rough
And the cops all shake and quiver and quake
as she stabs them with her cuffs
100 million? That's it? That is loving pennies.

I bet if you counted up the total number of inches that pickup trucks were lifted in the whole of 909 it would be twice that of your flyover state.

What's even more insane is if you get blurry with the markets (call the whole bay one market and call Anaheim/LA a market) only the Kings, Padres and Chargers (for now) are outside of LA/SF Bay Area.

And then sells the team to the city of San Diego so the mayors office can personally bungle the team.

right back into this bullshit

quote:

"The Oakland A's will continue to explore our options with the City of Oakland and the County of Alameda on a new venue. This announcement by the NFL regarding the Raiders does not change our immediate plans or our goal of securing a new baseball-only facility," A's owner Lew Wolff said in a statement.

Gillette, Reliant, Ford and UOP were all built for ~500M. Energy prices are low, China is in a slump and Oakland has a climate where dome is not required. There's no reason a new Oakland facility needs to be more than $600M. That 100M plus G-4 matching funds means davis would only have to find $250M of financing.

They have a lease at Qualcomm through 2020, but can opt out every year for a decreasingly small amount
