Honestly, I don't care about Oakland much, but if you are a sports fan you should see the movie MONEYBALL; it does Oakland and the Oakland Athletics proud.

I'm actually 10yrs old as evidenced by my insane obsession with this site.

Again, I am sorry for your T-Bow loss. I will say a prayer for your team.

You can trash talk NOR-CAL all you want if the 49ers don't make it to the Superbowl or if they don't win the Superbowl.

That could be true. I don't think I'd have any problem agreeing to that, NorCal is awesome. However in that comparison, Denver pretty much carries Colorado but NorCal hardly needs Sac to be awesome.

Man, this is a great thread

For the Clueless, Denver has more Championships with its pro teams over the last 15 years than All of the NORCAL teams. College is a different story! But thanks for continuing to avoid a callout!

That is on my "to-do" list. It looks like a good one. BTW, what are your thoughts on the A's relocating to Hayward/Fremont?

Well if the thread was Norcal vs. Colorado then maybe you'd have a point. But it's not. Saying that Sacramento is as good a sports city as Denver because you chose to attach yourself to San Francisco, a completely different city 90 miles away, is like saying that Albany is a better sports city than Boston because they have 9 different teams to support from the NY metro. See how silly that gets? You have to judge each city on its own merits.

Put MONEYBALL high on your list, a must see for any sports fan.

As a Sacramentan, it does not matter to me much. Both cities are on the same train route as Oakland when taking the train to a game. When driving, its just another 15-20mins. If it means they will get a modern ballpark, great.

I am sure the city of Oakland would not like to lose them.

I have always been more of San Francisco Giants and 49er fan, and Sacramento Kings fan, of course.

I love Sac but c'mon now.

Denver is better than Sacramento in every statistical category except weather. Denver is in a different tier compared to Sac. Sac is in the same level as Salt Lake, Columbus, and Raleigh, sorry.
