Be hopeful A's Fans

This season is not over. Lets all have some hope. Lets get everyone on this site together and rally the troops. This might sound really corny, or stupid but I had an idea. A lot of people on here including myself are very negative. Lets change that.

Every one please say one memory about the A's past or present that you really enjoyed. I will go first. When the A's beat the Blue Jays on AN day in 2006. Milton Bradley's walk off home run was amazing.

I devolped a slang that we should all use on here . Its called "wett." Wett is a bay area slang that people use to mean cool or "tight" here is the link to urbandictionary.com definition.

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=+wett everyone please start saying "that's wett" if something is good or "get wett" for example if Emil Brown is up with the bases loaded say "get wett" LETS GO A'S!

Fantasy Footballs right around the corner. It just helps ease the pain for me.

"Look how far this is from your ‘Moneyball’ theories a couple years ago," Buckley said. "They were drafting all college pitchers. And now who’s the team that got the 16-year-old? Oakland." Chris Buckley, the Cincinnati Reds’ scouting director.

Decades of Fun Teams to Watch

The A’s have had decades of fun, exciting teams to watch. The 70’s wild and crazy bunch, the 80’s bash brothers, the speed of Henderson in the early 90’s, the fantastic trio of pitchers this decade- wow, what a team! Imagine what the next decade will bring.

HOPE, CHANGE, RALLY

uh, seems like we’ve got a lot of Obama going on here, and just like his “hope of changing washington” it ain’t gonna happen.

It's just more exciting with Billy Beane running the team.

I am out of hope for this season.

I am going to the games now to enjoy watching the kiddies develop. I have grown rather weary of the rebuilding philosophy. Patience is not my best suit.
