I was hoping nobody would point that thing about Bonds out:classic:

It's true that Giants draw way more fans, and that's why they have more cash, but the reason for the disparity is not important.

What's important is that the A's do more with less.

The Giants spend 85 million(will be more next year), the A's spend 50.

but it really dont mean shit if they are spending little because they have to. if billy bean had more money to work with, then he would use it. just cause the a's do more with less isnt necesserilly reason to gloat. other teams spend more money because they can and you cant really say they are doing any less of a job because of it as long as they are winning. (like the giants). but teams like the dodgers and especially the orioles who spend outrageous amounts of money and cant even make the playoffs are who really look like idiots compared to the a's.

Caput187um- FYI Bonds is the only player on the giants making over 10 mil. but regardless, giants have a larger payroll because they have more money. the a's have a small payroll because they have no money.


Hay$tack$avage- You pretty much answered your own question. rambling on and shit. but really. the giants history ranks up there in the top 5. and I wasnt even talking about the attendance. you brought that up yourself. of course people would rather go the pac bell park than the horrible oakland coliseum. I am talking about the fans overall. no matter where you go there will be more giants fans than a's fans with an exception of maybe oakland and a few other east bay cities, but even in alot of east bay cities there are hella giants fans. you will not find many a's fans anywhere other than the east bay.

How are they in the top five in history when SAN FRANCISO has NEVER won a WORLD SERIES?
That makes NO sense.
Again, you bring up shit that is irrelevant. It doesn't matter who has more fans or less fans or who serves hotdogs and beer at their ballpark or who serves sushi and wine at theirs. The bottom line is: The OAKLAND ATHLETICS have WON FOUR WORLD SERIES' while the SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS have won ZERO WORLD SERIES'. And OAKLAND did it with NO money-like you stated-and in less time-TEN years AFTER the Giants came to the Bay Area. Period. Hate all you want, gloat about your bandwagon attendance all you want, eat your sushi and wine all you want. That won't change historical FACTS.

the giants have a lot of pre san francisco history that is remarkable.
Oh you wanna hang onto NEW YORK accomplishments? We're talking about the SAN FRANCISCO Giants. What have THEY done? But if you wanna include past franchises ok, then the ATHLETICS have NINE World Series Championships.

Uhm, YEAH, they went to the WORLD SERIES again in '90 (which would make it the THIRD straight time). Do you even WATCH baseball?

For real, learn about baseball before opening your mouth son. First of all, if you DID know anything about baseball and inter-league play, you'd know that the A's WON the FIRST series against the Giants, then the Giants won the second one. That would make us TIED this year. So the Giants DIDN'T win the series. We've only played TWO series' this year. And the A's LEAD the lifetime series' against the Giants. So that woud show that the A's ALWAYS beat the Giants. NOT the other way around. Secondly, Since inter-league play started, the A's have the BEST record in inter-league play. And if you didn't know that the A's made the post season three years in a row (and are about to make it FOUR years in a row) then you've obviously NOT been watching baseball. THAT'S the PRESENT and NOT the past. And THOSE are FACTS. I bring up the past because it shows the DOMINANCE of the A's since they came to the Bay Area.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Damn you just showed your ignorance. You shouldn't have let your heart speak for you kid. Learn about baseball and THEN come try to argue with me. When did you start watching baseball, when the Giants won that second series from us? Don't tell me that I know your team better that YOU do, homie. Damn.

Jealous...? Hahahahaha....you make me laugh. Jealous of what....? I don't HATE the Giants. I just don't give a fuck about em cuz I'm an A's fan since birth. And I KNOW my team and I KNOW my stats. And I was only pointing out FACTS. Just cuz you Giants fans can't take ALL the accomplishments that the Oakland A's have done, so you all talk irrelevant shit about the A's attendance and ballpark. When the bottom line is:Oakland has accomplished and dominated MORE than the Giants. What is there to argue about? That's a FACT. So once again, can someone, ANYONE tell me what there is to be jealous of when the A's have FOUR World Series trophies and Frisco's got NONE?

No jelous rage here. I'm an A's fan because my roots are sctrictly East Bay, though I now live up in the northbay, in a suburban wasteland that the old people call novato.

Anyway, I'll stack their achievements up against the giants anyday.

At least I would, if it weren't such a retarded arguement.

Peace.

Actually if you knew anything about your team you would know that when they won those world series they were the yankees of baseball (money wise). But you already knew that didnt you. The A's used to be the richest franchise in all of sports.

Right now in the last 4 years whose shoes would you rather be in. The A's have had arguably the best team in baseball the past 4 years but have failed to get out of the first round. At least the giants made it last year. Yall lost to the Twins who got slaughtered by the fucking angles. Yes the A's do have 5 world series championships but they should have 7 right now. Quit talking about shit that happened 14 years ago, i was fucking 5 years old.

HAHAHAHAHA! Listen kid, I FORGOT more about baseball then you'll EVER know. Yeah, the pussy Giants made it last year, but what happened???? THEY LOST! Also, just thought I'd correct you, the OAKLAND A'S have only won FOUR World Series' NOT 5. The franchise as a whole has won NINE. 14 years ago, when you were 5, I was AT the series watching your never-won-a-World-Series-team get ANALLY RAPED with a BROOMSTICK from OAKLAND. 14 years ago or 50 years ago-it doesn't make a fucking difference. Bottom line is: OAKLAND has GONE and WON World Series Titles, period. In MY lifetime, PERIOD. YOUR bitch ass Giants have done NOTHING. Don't be mad cuz Fairy Bonds will retire with NO World Series rings! If you think that making it to a World Series and LOSING means something, then you make me laugh. That don't mean SHIT. NO ONE gives a FUCK about who lost the series. NO ONE gives a fuck about second place. ONLY the WINNER matters and your weak ass Giants came up short, again. Live with it. Don't cry about it now. And don't try to erase what OAKLAND has accomplished while SF has accomplished NOTHING. And THAT'S the bottom line.

I didnt try to erase anything that Oakland has done. Theyre easily my second favorite team. But you said the A's have done more with less money then the Giant's but that isnt true. The A's have done more but with the same or more amount of money. I ive and die with the Giants so you don't need to tell me that last year was a loss. But you do have to admit that the A's have choked in a major fucking way the last three or four years. They have had some very good teams. Maybe this is the Giant's year, maybe it's the A's year who fucking knows. All I know is it gets pretty damn boring talking about shit in the past. You get better arguments if you confine it to one year.

Well then TALK when your team WINS. Period.
