Typical A's move. Sign extensions for all Steroid/PED users! Bring back the golden years/89..... Still won't get you guys past the first round....
Did not like this move one bit. Don't get what this fat fuck is going to bring to this team!
And please, Giants are just as bad! They had Barry Balco and still couldn't bring it home in 2002! I think 2012 is tainted cause of Melky but that's my opinion. Who knows what would of happened if he didn't play for you guys at all during the season. The world will never know!
Like I said Giants fans, revel in your victory cause you know our turn will come!

what is this miracle you speak of.....A's making the playoffs by the skin of their teeth or is it getting a head start for next season after facing the Tigers.....maybe its how they did NOT win the world series, is that the "miracle" your talking about??
ok, ok yeah, yeah 55 million dollar payroll....if they dont win the big game that has ZERO meaning!
Funny how Giants fans all of a sudden have a voice after winning a couple championships. I guess we should start comparing you guys to the fucking Yankees already. Quit trolling on this thread and enjoy your team while it's hot. Shit don't last forever.
this isnt a "my Giants won the world series" shit talking. Its more like why in the fucken world do A's fans bring up money spent on talent??
Yankees = big money Athletics = small money
^^both teams didnt bring home the trophy, why even brag about how much your team spent.....at this point its meaningless

He won "executive" of the year for taking a nothing payroll and making a competitive team. That's why it is relevant for the award and the conversation at hand.

billy beane does wonders with a cash strapped team that's why he's the best in baseball..not any other gm can do wat he does.we had 5 starting rookie pitchers take us to the playoffs,while the giants had a 20 million zito,a 20 million bullpen guy a 117 million payroll and we both had the same records 94-68 that's money well spent..giants will always hate on the A's cuz there secondary to us we have 4 rings they have 2

"Money well spent" on what? matching the record of another team?? If that was the A's goal the whole season. well then, I salute the A's on that accomplishment
since were using the season records for a measuring stick for success....what was the 2012 Tigers reg season W/L record again?? you know the same Detroit tigers who eliminated the A's, swept the Yankees and made it all the way to the world series....with a 88-74 reg season record
^^if you dont go all the way its just more meaningless records.

You are seriously going to continue talking about this? The Giants spent countless of dollars for years with nothing to show? Where those years meaningless to Giants fans? I am an A's fan and had fun watching the Giants those years too when they were competitive.
The point is this was supposed to be ANOTHER rebuilding year for us and it turned into a competitive and fun year to watch with the little payroll we had. Of course it sucks that we did not win it all as it probably sucked for Giants fans from 1958-2009. Doesn't mean any year is meaningless as you say.

and your point is? we have 4 in oakland and 9 total.4 since 1968 while giants have 2 since 1958 sounds better to me.

True we all know our A's has better records then the Giants as of right now but think we should talk shit to our rivals down south instead LA Dodgers and LA Angels and San Diego.

Reddick's Golden Glove?...
True story....
Had a Giants fan, Posey jersey and all, come in to my parts department and ask for a transmission dipstick for a vehicle that doesn't have one...I told him his model doesn't have one and I asked him for year make and model mulitiple times..He was so pissed, and almost threw a tantrum...Then finally realised he told me the wrong year...lol Moral of the story, and even told the customer to his face, Giants fans are often wrong
Go A's!!! [ 2013-04-07, 08:39 PM: Message edited by: BlackNGold ]
