And there is an assumption the A’s will tank in the next few years, because their #revenuestream will be down to a trickle. 'This makes us all look bad,' said one person." Lets be honest the Oakland Athletics would not be in this situation if it wasn't for these so called "other organizations." They unanimously #approved #Vegas without a legitimate plan for #JohnFisher and #DaveKaval. Also, it is not like Fisher has not relied on "revenue sharing," signed their top prospects to long-term deals, or done anything to continue to keep the A's competitive when the franchise started winning. So who has enabled the #Athletics? Those who are now complaining about a team that is willing to play for at minimum in a #minorleagueballpark for three seasons, possibly more while a nonexistent stadium in another state may not even come to fruition. While completing ignoring that the city of #Oakland finally stood ground against the A's. Got nearly $1 billion in funding to build a ballpark at #HowardTerminal. We're not buying what other organizations are saying Buster. Then again it is also sad said person could not put a name to their face for when they said "this makes us all look bad." Sorry but Major League Baseball (MLB) and owners have looked bad for a long time when it comes to the situation regarding Oakland. Funny thing is this all could have been avoided if #MLB had a #legitimateleadership and a #competent #commissioner.

The road to the Brick Tournament is a challenging one, and it begins with evaluations. The CCM Chicago Brick program comprises two key components: the 2014 CCM Chicago Brick Team and the 2015 CCM Chicago Brick Futures Team.

OK...The Tacos are already taken but could MLB Team be key to an Austin-San Antonio mega region really taking off? With MLB Commissioner saying a likely 2 team expansion is in future... ESPN reporting that an Austin / San Antonio team might be a strong front runner for a team but did note the distance between was a little far. I think bigger problem is who is paying for a stadium? San Antonio's already looking for new Spurs downtown stadium so might be a hard sell to fund 2 mega project, and let's face it... Austin only has a soccer team because it only needed to kick in the toxic land without street frontage to build it on. Don't see Austin voters kicking in money for a stadium. What do you think... Does an ASA mega region have a shot at a MLB team locating between San Marcos and New Braunfels? #austin #tacos #linkedglenn #mlbexpansion #asatacos

Here's what's likely to be the first real task for a new stadium district board.

The Oakland Athletics will share a stadium with the Sacramento River Cats for three seasons prior to moving to #LasVegas, the team said Thursday. The Cats are the Triple A affiliate of the San Francisco Giants. This kinda makes sense but dunno how the Sacramento team will feel having to play with a Double A [quality] #MLB team. It's a long time since Moneyball and all Billy Beane's awesomeness was ripped off by teams with scads more $$. Still, the A's, while enduring a recent three-game sweep by the Boston Red Sox [Go Sox!], drew about 4,000 fans per game, easily half being Sox fans. Sacto's stadium capacity is 10,000. The A's did average 10K last year, but either way it's #NoProblem In true Major League Baseball (MLB) fashion there's a club option for a fourth year. The A's will be called the Athletics or the A's for their time in Sacramento, dropping the word 'Oakland' — which can also only be good from a #branding perspective. Not just dropping the #Oakland part, but having no city at all on their name for four years. Then, what happens in #Vegas ... well, you know. Vegas a'course is already well into becoming a sports mecca — the now Las Vegas Raiders, the Las Vegas Aces, the Vegas Golden Knights — a boon for #convention-goers staying an extra day or entertaining #clients, sunburn-easily #tourists, and local residents. There are two Vegases after all: that 'what happens in' one, and the family-friendly one. Both can be pleased with the arrival of the A's, who perhaps will then have the dosh to keep players after working so hard to develop them ... only to see them currently and after several seasons decamp for hefty salary cities. They're building a $1.1B stadium in the #Nevada desert. Benjamin Siegel wd be proud. #baseball #sportsbusiness #sports #betting
