too bad it will most likely be a flat parking lot. Why dont they take into consideration that car clubs will give them money if they make a cool roadway that doubles as a track as well as a perimeter road to get around all the parking lots and the stadium. that would be a dream come true.

the mcafee holds 60,000 people. the giants can't even fill that. i think the only team who is probably capable is the yankees.

NorCal would be cool for a brand new team, but i think the people in true Norcal (sac and north) get mad. Im in santa cruz so im almost CenCal

The last I hear on the news was "San Jose A's of Fremont"... Sound even more rediculous than Fremont A's.

it would be a good opportunity for the A's to be the Athletics since ive heard they dont want to be known as the A's (what the owner says i guess).
Fremont Athletics doesnt sound as weird.

Should make it Bay Area A's. Then all the gangstars can have jerseys that say the bay on them.

Seriously though. This will be good for fremont money and I'm guessing fremont public transit. But traffic..have fun with that. I'm so glad I don't live there anymore.

Oakland is ****ed. They're only income is taxes and the ports now.

and then the 9ers going to santa clara...traffic over there is going to be rediculous.
