The day is here
It's finally happened. The A's are moving to Fremont.
I wonder if they'll go all Angels on us and call themselves the Oakland A's of Fremont.
Even as a Giants fan I went to more A's games just because they were so accessible. A half-hour ride on BART from Dublin, cheaper tickets and less trend all around. It was just so easy to decide the day of you wanted to go to a game and not have to fight to make it happen.
Now we'll have to transfer trains and a new stadium might make it Pac Bell all over again. There wont be a happily forgotten team in the Bay Area. Or maybe the market wont be able to handle to trendy teams at once, and the post-Barry Giants will become the A's of the late '90s. I can only hope they bring back dollar Wednesdays.
