Should the Athletics go to Las Vegas or Nashville?

 Or maybe even Portland or Charlotte?  

That’s an easy no for Portland.  Portland might as well be in California, and not even in America anymore.

If it’s going to go east, Nashville seems better magnetized and growing.

Austin or San Antonio seem like a good Central Texas wild card. Maybe so for Sacramento too.

Las Vegas already has enough abrupt newness to chew on in the form of Golden Knights and Raiders.  But out of all options I’d stick to my original want of the West Coast A’s splitting time between Oakland and Vegas.  I respect a taxpayers stance on not funding pro sports houses.  Though I have to admit, Nashville wouldn’t crush me if it happened.  The Bay is crowded with teams and crappy politics.
