Who is going to replace them as a tenant? Some CFL team?

Evict them to Alaska!

This is when all of those politicians who pushed all of those bond issues to build sport stadiums start to show their stupidity.

I doubt they will go under, not paying rent isn't the same as "bankrupt/broke", since they are not playing and have no use for the stadium since it is not bringing in revenue it is advantageous for them to "move out" until which time they can start work again and save themselves rent in the meantime.

Wow, this will be the new thing that I learn for the day. I never knew that there is rent to pay where baseball teams play their games.

God bless you always!!!

But they are mortgaged to the eyeballs and have to make their payments.

What will the Coliseum do for a new tenant?

The Roman Coliseum is in better shape then the Oakland Alameda version.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

Maybe they'll head back to KC.

Meh, there are too many MLB teams anyway. They need to scrap 4 of them.

It's never been a very stylish or attractive complex. The Raiders left. Now the A's are under pressure.
So is Alameda county going to host flea markets there or roller derby games?

 

[Eric Arthur Blair]

Maybe they'll head back to KC.

The Royals are already there. Think again. Portland has made noise about attracting a ball club from time
to time but it's unlikely.

Kind of sad the A's are a great organization their scouting departement is outstanding they always find great young talent especially pitching but because of the weak fan base they can never hold on to them.

Agreed. And they do this in spite of incentives to tank 3 out of every 5 years.
