Fremont for the A's is officially dead. That's what the press release said. So here are 3 ideas that make sense.

1. Stay in Oakland. Talk to the new mayor about a baseball only stadium in the Coliseum parking lot or investigate something downtown. The new mayor may have ideas, although honestly this mayor hasn't had one idea since he's been in office.

2. Move to San Jose and pay off the Giants. It is their territory but a little money -- or a lot -- can do wonders.

3. Move to Sacto where Raley field is ready to be expanded and the fans would support the A's.

By the way, ideas 2 and 3 come to me from Doug Kelly all around sports genius and friend.
