Some context regarding Oakland Professional Sports. Remember: 1. The A’s were the FIRST Oakland team to try and leave. They’ve actually been trying to leave for almost 20 years now. They lied, cheated, stole, and even sued MLB in collaboration with San Jose to try and leave

The real story about Oakland which the media refuses to tell is the huge drop in homicides. 26 murders and it’s May 17th. Of those 26, 10 were recoded in January. Oakland has recorded 16 murders in the last 3.5 months. If this continues it would be an all time low homicide rate.

Oakland A's have been in the playoffs 2 yrs in a row. Don't recall no SF MUNI buses saying "GO A's". Raiders were 12-4 a few yrs back. Don't recall no SF MUNI buses saying "GO RAIDERS". This so called BAY LOVE always seems to move in only one direction, away from Oakland. #NotMe

Notice how Oakland gets blamed for crime not even in our city. This is actually in Emeryville, & since this criminal cannot actually use any of these phones, he’s most likely taking them to a “fencing” warehouse in SF where he’ll be paid on the spot. That’s the real story here

@rianjohnson Rian, with all due respect...it just didn't measure up bro. It just never quite felt right or fulfilling. Maybe your new trilogy will be great cause you can start from scratch. But we honestly didn't even need to see TFA in order to understand TLJ. No cohesiveness. Not good bro.

I’m hard pressed to think of another city in the USA that has the same mix of dense urban, natural forest, mountainous elevation, waterfront, & ethnic diversity, all within its city limits! Oakland is truly a special place. I refuse to let us only be defined by our worst parts✊🏾

@nhanson_reports Oakland has dense urban, suburban, and even rural neighborhoods. Oakland has big estates on Skyline Blvd with horses and all kinds of different residential architecture. It’s an incredible city. I haven’t seen a city like it in the US, and I’ve traveled a lot.

John Madden's .759 win percentage as a head coach is still the highest in NFL history (min. 100 games). All 103 of his career wins came with the Raiders, the most by any head coach in franchise history.

I'll never forget when @soledadobrien literally said that when reporting on the Bay Area, she was basically mandated to make sure negative news/images about Oakland were highlighted & positive news was kept hush. That validated everything we've always known. No we're not crazy💯

Oakland is the 1st & only place in the Bay Area you can get food from Tanzania & also the Dominican Republic. So when the media hyper-denigrates Oakland, it's either due to jealousy, or flat out racism, because Oakland embodies the cultural diversity that some ppl actually hate.

Doom loop, where? Proud that West Oakland is home to the Bay's first Tanzanian restaurant, Swahili Spot, opened a few months ago. It's 🔥 - you've gotta taste this food. Great Specials during Oakland Restaurant week. 👇

I will keep shouting this from the rooftops: This is yet another example of why vilifying Oakland, SF, or any singular city is completely shortsighted, naive, and devoid of any practical wisdom. This current crime wave is national, and in our specific locale, a REGIONAL issue.

Justin Schuck is one of more than 10,000 people who have had their cars broken into so far this year in Oakland. But his story took him to San Francisco where he was able to track down his stolen items and ended with a surprising response from police.

Oakland is absolutely gorgeous. Especially when compared to most other urban centers around the country. Our problem is that for so long we have allowed others to define and vilify us, so much so, that we ourselves have actually started to internalize and believe it.

My new job in downtown Oakland has a city center office overlooking city hall and Oakland is so damn beautiful. Downtown is always pleasant and lively, especially with the sun coming out. Its rather jarring when comparing it to the crime videos from unspecified dates.

The most recorded murders in Oakland was 175 in 1992. The 3rd most was 148 in 2006 under “tough on crime” Mayor, Jerry Brown. Oakland has not reached that number of murders again since Jerry Brown was Mayor. Like I said: a lot of y’all ain’t really from Oakland and it shows.

We should never become complacent to the crime & violence in our communities. But this "sky is falling" apocalyptic view of Oakland tells me that most of u social media warriors did NOT grow up here. Do u have any idea the level of violence in Oakland back in the 80s/90s/2000s?

I know on good authority that in 2016 the Walmart at that SAME In-N-Out location closed because of rampant crime/retail theft Libby Schaff was the Mayor. Nancy O'Malley was the DA We didn't hear a peep back then. No histrionics, no "sky is falling" doom rhetoric It's pathetic

@Elmanogonsalves It sits in the parking lot of the former gigantic Walmart that closed in 2016 after just 10 years. Nobody freaked out about that, but In & Out is proof of armageddon. It's all 100% political. Pretending like the pandemic never happened. I pretty much hate those people.
