Former Oakland A's owner Lew Wolff had an interesting comment that was specifically phrased in regards to whether John Fisher could finance a Las Vegas ballpark
There was a point in time not too long ago that Lew Wolff was the man that A's fans were tired of. It was Wolff that was the team's Managing Partner from 2005-2015, and he was the face of the ownership group. Then John Fisher bought him out and got everyone to chant "Sell the Team!"
“John would not take on any activity that he was not financially capable and excited to do,” Wolff said. “I have been involved with John and his family for decades and never encountered any endeavor that they undertook where they were not committed and capable of implementing."Wolff must have forgotten about the time tha Fisher walked away from years of planning the Howard Terminal project in Oakland only to walk away right before a deal could be reached over a difference of $80 million.
That's not necessarily a flex. Instead, it seems to provide the skeptics with more ammunition. How is this the best deal that Fisher could find after 20 years of scouring San Jose, Fremont, Oakland, Las Vegas, and Utah? Something isn't passing the smell test.
