No doubt! Giambi, Tejada, Hudson, Mulder, Zito, Swisher, and the list goes on and on and on.

Billy Beane is the man. He's building a dynasty in Oakland by acquiring all this young talent. Soon the A's will be a great team despite having a very small payroll.

I think the Raiders would be a much better team if we would have been patient and took a few years to really re-build. After the superbowl run we should have traded any decent players for picks, not even signed guys like Sapp and washington, traded our 1st round picks for picks the next year etc.,. We couldn't have been any worse these last 5 years.
