How John Fisher can increase profits-fire Slick Billy. Think about it-the Fisher family can hire anybody’s drunken uncle for a bottle of Ripple to trade multi All STARS for A ball,254 hitters or 1-4 pitchers.
Hiring a GM to lose? to make those trades? Slick in his slacks is now equal to an alchy. More money for John!

Beane in hiding:Cowardly GM. As usual,Beane can’t be found,wont return messages. Only when its to take the credit does Beane make the local sports shows. What a shallow coward.

Folks,Joe,-when I was a kid there was a central American dictator-Somosa,who had amassed a fortune while his poorest ate dirt. And what was he famous for saying about his having so much while so many had nothing? “I WISH I HAD MORE”..”If I had more money,I could help my people”. LOL-ISN’T THAT BEANE? “If I had more money, THEN I would use my Beane genius to win”-lol!!!..

When the A’s group bought the A’s-THEY crowed ” WE are the 5th WEALTHIEST ownership in MLB!”
Beane-Wolff and John Fisher were RICH when they started,and have had nothing but profits every year for a DECADE.
So,because they are not GIVEN a new stadium with free land..they have destroyed the team. Greedy bastards. Somosa’s!

And JEERS to Mark Purdy. He left off John Fisher on his list of most powerful local sports people. Mark-biased to seeing the A’s leave seems to avoid at all cost upsetting the A’s group. No,he’s not one those standing up for whats right. Shame.

Some good news-my post that Oakland should sue the A’s? Yesterday mayor Quan said that the paperwork is readied to block any moves-SUE THEM MAYOR UNTIL IT HURTS!
And thunmbs up to Monte Poole and Tim Kakwakami for pointing a finger at the TRUE owner of the A’s-John Fisher..who has his minor partners use the poor mouthing propaganda. Yeah John-why not fix those leaky clubhouse toilets you complain about? Spend some of that billions instead of forcing taxpayers!
Its the height of greed for men who at home have golden toilets…lol..and you know its true.

Billy Beane-The Banker and part time GM. ALL OF BEANES MOTIVES are the same as those Bankers who LOOTED our economy in the housing crisis. It’s the SAME PRINCIPALS..steal and line pockets. Are you kidding me? trade Bailey a TWO TIME ALL STAR for a 1-4 pitcher and a kid who hit 254 in A BALL????,that’s insane GREED! The A’s are going to set a record for lowest payroll EVER adjusted for the era. Beane is CASHING OUT OAKLAND!..he’s destroying a team while creating a hardship on the City of Oakland as income will go down from lack of ticket sales…BUT BEANES INCOME WILL RISE!..revenue shares will rocket up while payroll dives!..and SO WILL THE SEASON.
Billy BEANE IS THE 1%ER ENEMY! EMAIL SLICK BILLY! CRAM IT DOWN HIS THROAT AS HE’S DONE TO OAKLAND!
FOLKS-FISHER AND WOLLF AND BEANE MUST GO!..sell to Oracle’s Ellison,sell to sportsman, and get the hell out!

^^^^^^^
I would like to see Ellison buy the A’s and keep them in Oakland if it can be done?

It maybe too late for that.

It saddens to see what Beane has become as well.

More KNBR/SLUSSER/SF GATEGANDA: It was just pitiful the excuse making for the A’s ownership groups all out greed bid to take what they want. What a billionaire like John Fisher thinks he’s entitled to.
I propose A’s fans boycott-the city of Oakland sue the A’s if they even hint at moving,and the FANS force their will..a new owner who will rebuild team AND stadium. Plenty of other billionaires and teams of them out there. The Warriors prooved that.
Also-don’t forget the A’s HAVE NEVER LOST MONEY IN OAKLAND. OAKLAND is the 5th largest metro area in the country. It’s laughable to hear Sue Slusser and Giant shills KNBR claim the A’s HAVE to be 20 miles farther south to interest silicon valley. A argument of need that’s fantasy. I ask you-is a perpetual loser going to draw interest? Maybe try winning Slick Billy..it got you near 3 mill attendence a decade ago. Moneyball teaches that 120 loss seasons are the ways of a Genius?-LOL.
What a disgrace Billy Beane is to our country.

THESE ARE NOT MAJOR TRADES-THEY ARE MAJOR THEFTS!..thefts from A’s fans and the City of Oakland-home to the A’s for 40 years. Beane has bankrupted the teams and sold off the assets..like a crooked banker and con artist he is. Billy Beane has shown his true nature….
