Defending Oakland and San Francisco sports, fighting #shame and misconceptions of a supposed Bay Area rivalry
A’s take three out of four games vs the Giants. ** A ramble. A rant. Whatever you want to call it, it’s me expressing my thoughts. May not be very coherent, but it’s from the heart. I am so glad that this Bay Bridge interleague series is over. As much as I enjoy the battle […]
Who’s Jon Heyman and why is he tweeting hate about the Oakland A’s?

Giants and A’s wearing batting practice caps for tonight’s game
@SamuelYLam During the game. — New Era Cap (@NewEraCap) May 28, 2013 Wearing batting practice caps for games isn’t out of the ordinary during the regular season. In fact, this past week we’ve seen the Twins and Blue Jays do it. But this is the first time in my memory that the A’s and Giants […]
Appreciating the Spurs as a dynasty like no other
Consistently good for so long. Call it what you want to, but despite the lack of sex appeal from the San Antonio Spurs, they are exactly what I love about basketball. Most times dynasties can get boring, but the Spurs aren’t your typical dynasty. They don’t win three straight titles like the Lakers or Bulls. […]
A condensed Bay Bridge Series might be good for A’s and Giants

Some speculated that he would announce his retirement, but it actually ended up that he was partnering with a non-profit organization. But of course, if one fake account makes you believe it to be true, then people will believe it. That […]
Understanding the drunk athletes and how they all get into DUIs
Athletes fall victim to these things all too often. This is in no way shape or form a justification for irresponsible drinking or anything following that, especially with driving. I’ve always felt that in order for me to understand an issue, I would have to actually immerse myself into it. With the offseason of the […]

Don’t be sad, Warriors fans. It only gets better from here on out
The future is bright for this squad. I was listening to the local radio earlier this week and they talked about the difference between the We Believe run the Warriors had in 2007 compared to the Warriors playoff team this year. There were numerous differences between the two teams, such as the offensive playbook, the […]

Reports: NBA Board of Governors vote to reject Kings relocation to Seattle

Mark Cuban’s uniform contest and devaluing the value of his team’s fanbase
Mark Cuban may be one of the smartest owners in sports, but his latest move has gotten some fans questioning his morals. If you haven’t heard the story, Mark Cuban is sourcing the Mavericks fans for ideas on a new uniform design. This isn’t uncommon in sports and it’s a pretty great way to get […]
Rolando McClain cements status as a bust with early retirement
This is pretty much all on McClain, right? Give some blame on the Raiders for either not researching and scouting him proper or not giving him the structure to succeed. McClain however is his own enemy for this and I hope that he gets his life right and maybe returns to football if he desires. […]

Sharks vs. Kings: Let’s get it on!
I don’t like the Kings. Sucks even more they’re the defending champs. But now it’s time to finish their reign of terror. All California, all in right now. The Sharks match up well against the Kings. Antti Niemi is on a roll and this Sharks team is better than the ones of years past. They […]
