    This "of (area)" shit is a plague and it seems to be spreading.

    Silicon Valley A's? Somewhere Connie Mack is spinning in his grave.

    He probably did that when they moved to California in the first place.

    I would have said when they moved to KC, but I have no idea whether or not he was still alive then.

    I believe Connie Mack died in 1956, so he would have been alive. And he knew the situation because it was a classic case of the kids not being able to run the business Dad started.

    Screw Connie Mack. It's his fault to begin with. He sold off all the players more than once.

    This news is pathetic. Just call yourself Golden State or Silicon Valley or Wine Valley or Fremont or whatever it is you want to go by. But pick ONE geographic element to you name, and only one.
