Video: Coco’s Fro Cannot Be Contained

It’s great to have Coco Crisp back in the line-up because not only is he a great player, his fun-loving, Bernie-leaning personality is a spark that helps motivate the rest of the team. A’s skipper Bob Melvin said as much before last night’s 1-0 victory [...]
Sports: A’s Look To Have Another Magical Season
April 2nd, 2013 | by Sean | published in Featured, Sports
It seems as though it was just a few weeks ago that I was sitting in the Coliseum with 20+ family members cringing as the A’s were dominated by the now overpaid Justin Verlander and the rest of the Tigers. It seemed a pretty anti-climatic way to end a [...]

The experts predicted that the Oakland A’s band of no name misfits would lose 100 games this year, and even A’s die hards had to google damn near every player on the 2012 roster. Evidently inspired by the conniving premise of the movie Major League, [...]

Over the last year the Oakland A’s have had the national spotlight shined on them because of the wide spread success of the movie Moneyball. Although Brad Pitt did an admirable job portraying the “great baseball mind” of Billy Beane, the current A’s [...]
Video: Shit Oakland A’s Fans Say
February 7th, 2012 | by Coolhand Luke | published in Featured, Sports
Everyone and their mama has made a “Shit _____ Says” video. I’m pretty sure the only variation that hasn’t been conceived and filmed is “Shit Mute Czechoslovakian Prostitutes Say To Deaf Elton John Groupies.” That said, there have been some pretty [...]
