What is
Pathetics Nation?
Pathetics Nation is an Oakland A's blog. Here, there's none of that "In Billy We Trust" bullshit. And we won't try to sell you any T-shirts, either. (We don't need to--we have real jobs.) We love the A's, but we tell it like it is.

Fun Fact
Sad but true: The T-shirt salesman who runs Athletics Nation also runs fan websites for the Los Angeles Angels, the Texas Rangers, the Seattle Mariners, and even the San Francisco Giants--all teams that REAL A's fans hate with a passion. .

Open Thead: Game 138 - Seattle Mariners vs. A's

By The Anti-Blez on Tuesday, September 06, 2005

Is there a bigger hypocrite in A's fandom than the T-shirt salesman?

Here we are, with just 24 games left in the season, and Oakland is only a game and a half out of both first place in the AL West and the Wild Card.

But the T-shirt salesman has joined the Bay Area media by jumping on the SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS BANDWAGON!

The Giants' "playoff hopes" was the lead story on the front page of the sports sections of all major Bay Area newspapers today. A team that is 10 games under .500 is getting more respect than the A's!

And the T-shirt salesman has launched a San Francisco Giants Fan Website!

That's right, Asslickers! Your idol, the hypocrite who professes to "bleed green and gold" at the same time he's trying to sell you a T-shirt, has launched a Giants fan site!

HOW FUCKED UP IS THAT?

And it's not just any old blog. The T-shirt salesman is getting hundreds of hits every day at his loving tribute to the Giants. The only thing that seems to be missing are the T-shirts themselves. But I'm sure he'll rectify that situation soon. After all, how hard will it be for him to change "In Billy We Trust" to "In Barry We Trust"? Just three letters!

C'mon people. This is ridiculous. It's fine for somebody to want to earn a cheap buck or two by selling dumb T-shirts and running blogs for every fucking MLB team in existence, but please, DON'T ALLOW THEM TO DO IT ON THE BACKS OF REAL A'S FANS!

QUIT PRETENDING THAT YOU LOVE THE A'S, ASSHOLE, AND START SHOWING SOME RESPECT TO THOSE OF US WHO REALLY DO!

Let's Go Oakland!!!
