I don't know much about law, so it will be interesting to see what happens. San Jose was so confident of getting the A's that they went and built a brand new stadium for the A's to play in. The problem is greed on the San Frans peoples, (city council etc), BTW over the past ten years San Jose has become the second largest city in California, after LA, San Diego is third now, and SF who for so many years was # 2 in California has become # 4th largest city in California. So you can see why they want to keep the San Jose market. But Oakland has been talking about moving off and on for 40 years, if the courts decide in favor of the Giants, Oakland should move to Akron or Vancouver. Bud Selig said there will not be any more expansion for over 20 years. So who else but those rich people in Montreal who wants to bring a team back to Montreal, again, who else in the USA can give them compitition, Akron, but then the Cleveland Indians will cry FOUL BALL. I think the A's is Montreals best chance. But that would create 6 teams in the AL East, so Toronto would have to move to the NL........theres more but I like the sound of the Blue Jays being in the NL East. The Braves could be moved to another division, or....... another NL team joining the AL, the Nats back to the AL and setting up a rivalry with Baltimore....only 30 miles away from Washington.
