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. .

By The Anti-Blez on Saturday, November 11, 2006

Billy Beane signs two high-profile free agents, a pair of free swingers who know a thing or two about going deep. Now he has somebody to keep himself company in the clubhouse. (Hey, Rickey, watch your back when these "guys" are around!)

Gold Glove,

Plastic Bat


The $66 Million Man brings home another trophy for defensive excellence. Who the fuck cares? Senor Choke finishes the season with a .241 batting average.
