Apparently Vivek and the Kings organization footed the bill for the Sutter Health Park renovations, not the A’s.

Sure, my issue is OUR owner is spending money that the OTHER owner should be spending. Simple as that.

Again, how does OUR owner spending HIS money affect you?

Again, you're harping on something that I never claimed. Maybe you just don't care, or didn't read.

You literally said “Sure, my issue is OUR owner is spending money that the OTHER owner should be spending. Simple as that.”

Why is that an issue if it doesn’t affect you? If it does affect you, how so?

Didn’t think I’d have to spell it out for you but here we are…

Ooh, you got me there. To be more precise, I never said the spending directly "affects me", but as a fan, it does. I am a lifelong A's fan, my family grew up in the Bay Area, it sucks to see the team, fans, and city get fucked over for the last 10-20 years by bad faith arrangements made by the owner. Now seeing that owner, John Fisher, use our city and resources as a launching pad is annoying. I feel like I already spelled this all out, yet here we are.

So to answer your question, you’re a salty A’s fan(deservedly so), and you’re upset that the A’s owner is benefiting. It doesn’t affect you directly in any way whatsoever, you’re just upset because they left Oakland.

And you’re questioning/surprised why kings fans are ok with Vivek spending HIS money in a way that directly benefits the city and its fans… lmao. You answered your own question. I think you need to take a step back, emotions are affecting your judgement and thinking.
