There comes a time when fans have simply had enough.
Stop ruining our sports, our communities, and our love of the game for greed and profit.
Teams may own the franchises, but they do not own our loyalty.
The time for fans to stand up is now.
#FansFirstMovement
Fans across America are told they should be grateful just to have a team.
Then ownership threatens relocation, demands public money, and expects communities to fall in line.
Enough.
Sports teams belong to the people who support them, not just the billionaires who own them.
Join the #FansFirstMovement and help change the future of American sports.
From Oakland to Tampa Bay, from Anaheim to Chicago, fans are seeing the same playbook.
The good news? Fans have more power than they realize.
Organize. Speak out. Hold ownership accountable.
Real change starts when fans stand together.

Several MLB owners and executives think expansion in MLB doesn’t make sense financially, per @BNightengale.
One executive said, “Why would we want to subsidize two more small-market teams? I don’t understand it. The economics don’t add up."
An owner said, “Those teams certainly won’t be paying money into revenue sharing, so it will be less money for everyone else. What’s the added benefit, to get more fans engaged? I’m not sure expansion will drive fan engagement in either market.”
The Chicago Bears belong in Chicago, and that shouldn’t even be a debate.
As ownership tries to portray relocation as the only option, the reality is that keeping the Bears in Chicago is the best outcome for fans, workers, and the city itself.
Most importantly, public dollars should fund public goods, not billionaire-owned stadiums. If the Bears want a new stadium, they can pay for it themselves or secure private investment. It's that simple.
As the legislative session ends, let this be clear: taxpayers don't want their money going to billionaires. If the Bears want a new stadium, they can pay for it themselves. Public dollars belong to public goods, not private sports franchises.

They're a prime example of what EVERY A's fan should be doing instead of continuing to support an unserious franchise ran by unserious people.

Joe Lacob can do something very interesting that can be beneficial for Vegas and Oakland if John Fisher decides to be smart. Sell the name @Athletics to Joe Lacob witch Will fund the Vegas ballpark and then some. And possibly revive HT @VitalVegas@LasVegasLocally@As_Fan_Radio
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Kudos to you, Mr Lacob! We’re ready for you to bring expansion into Oakland! We’re willing to help in any way at all possible! Let’s go Oakland!!!
Sources: Warriors owner Joe Lacob, who recently bid on the San Diego Padres and has shown interest in buying the A's and Angels, is not part of Sacramento's bid for MLB expansion as officials search for a lead investor.

@ChrisBiderman Because Joe Lacob very well knows the Oakland A’s belong in Oakland and that there are viable solutions for a viable Major League organization in OAKLAND.
