    • Should Oakland Let The A's Sign A Short Lease

I say, no.... Shame on the A's for trying to stick up the city and county..

Sign a 10 years lease or hit the road Jack and don't come back, should be the Oakland and Alameda Co. approach... If the A's say no - then look sell the land or tear it down and make it a public park with plenty of big field sport sites or a bit of both.. With Soccer, Baseball you name it fields - Sports by and for people...

The current A's ownership has snubbed the city - who has tried to work with them in building a stadium here...

The A's ownership publicly has stated it wants to move to San Jose... I think Oakland should say, "Go for it A's, thanks for the memories and get the heck out now..

Time for the city and county to move on... The place paid for itself once over and more...

The Warriors are leaving... Looks like the Raiders are too ... Throw the A's out with them and good riddance..

Public monies spent on Pro Sports are a cancer on municipalities... Time for the ESPN types with their embarrassingly stupid jiggles and their phony patriotic hyperbole to pay for things themselves...

Oakland owes the A's nothing now!!!

Hey, I like the Oakland A's - Love'm really... But, I believe in tough love.. If the A's think they are too good for Oakland - (my always will be home town) - then I say, "there's the door and don't let it hit you in the behind on the way out"...

The A's current lease ends at the end of the year...

The A's owner owns the EQs.... Betcha, he would block any attemps for the Coloseum to get an MLS tenant too...

Put the hammer to them Oakland!!!

If wanting to have an MLB team, they better...or quickly do say, GOODBYE! Just as Lew wanted it in the first place.

It really is good to hear and to know you want the A's out of Oakland in the way you have mentioned.

That would only drive A's management to do just that and perhaps would even get MLB to make a quicker decision for the team to leave to another state if not allowed to move into San Jose. Oakland do not deserve the A's any longer as the owners really wanted out of the city anyway. There are stadiums available for the A's to play outside Oakland. Portland can be made available and once played in Las Vegas too, FYI. Sacramento where the Rivercats play their games can be an emergency venue. In fact, they should already move out of Oakland and play their games there while waiting for Selig and MLB's decision. They won't draw enough support from your city anyway because there will not be a miracle in 2013. I know they still have to play the games but the angels have already won the west. Of course i am an A's for already 5 decades but also a baseball fan who wants the A's to move to San Jose now after all those years of seeing enough support from that area or to wherever for as long as the team is out of the Oakland dump now.

Ang: So be it.... It will be worth it just to watch Wolff squirm and he will..

You've got it all wrong.... He really has nowhere to go in the short term... If he does go - let it be far away... And he won't be back soon...

For me, San Jose is the far side of the moon - as it is for many many A's fans... If he is a fool enough to think, the bulk of the fans follow him and his team there - he is living a pipedream... For those on here, who argue there will be new fans there - so be it... They are on the far side of the moon - you see

I think, Oakland should call his bluff with a hard all in bet... We win either way...

You are letting this pig scare you...

And Oakland should thumb their noses at Selig too... Make Selig make the decision... Maybe, Selig will find Wolffie a new city to screw... Just not Oakland again!!!

MLB don't tread on me!!!

If San Jose wants the team so bad let them have them... San Jose should just send Oakland $$50 million or there abouts to cover their interests and Oakland's too...

My concerns are for Oakland... Oakland should not be a patsy for San Jose for free..

Screw San Jose!!!
