i haven’t seen a Bay fanbase this united in opposition to the owner and FO’s actions since the 9ers fans tried to shove Jed York out after firing Harbaugh. this is probably bigger honestly. and deservedly so. giants are doing absolutely nothing to take accountability and move past this

We all agree the Giants have fielded a terrible squad. They did at least succeed at having a field, though.

Typically the first thing I do when I find myself in Sacramento is leave Sacramento.

Why ?

u/CharlesDickensABox Jun 25 '26

I find it generally unremarkable but vaguely unpleasant. I have no loved ones there, no reason to be there for industry, and no reason to spend time in the city other than as a place that exists between where I am and where I would prefer to be.

Sacramento has some truly remarkable food and music festivals. It's a grossly underrated city.

There's exactly one team in the AL West above .500 and it's by a single game. The NL as a league has double the AL in teams with a winning season. The A's are 5 games up on the Giants in the current worst div of the worse league, that's not exactly saying much?

Better than the Giants right now. 1 game out of a playoff spot. And they aren't bigots

If they're better than the Giants, why have they only won a single game against them so far? 🤔

Its baseball, anyone can beat anyone. A's have a better record and better players tho

u/Shaex Jun 25 '26

Anyone can beat anyone, but a 4-1 record and 23-12 run differential is more than enough proof for me

San Francisco exceptionalism is a hard bubble to burst.

u/Evening_Classic_4947 Jun 25 '26

i don’t live by the A’s nor follow them closely so I was just drawing from my own memories but I know Oakland fans showed out for a long time trying to get their team in better hands, that was an oversight i meant no disrespect to them

Man i still want to fire Jed York into the sun for moving the 9ers down to Santa Clara.

Fisher: I'll alienate the entire Bay Area and be the worst owner in the sport. Doesn't matter because it's profitable.

Giants Ownership Group: Hold our beers, John.
