Quick Glance: Bringing Oakland Athletics to Sacramento is Wrong | Opinion
  • Sports radio personality David Weiglein, known as 'Carmichael Dave', opposes the temporary relocation of the Oakland Athletics to Sacramento by Kings owner Vivek Ranadive.

  • Weiglein argues that bringing the Oakland Athletics to Sacramento is wrong due to owner John Fisher being considered one of the worst in sports and advocates for the A's to remain in Oakland.

  • He cautions that Sacramento would receive a bad reputation as game attendance might dwindle after the initial novelty wears off, leaving loyal fans feeling duped.

  • Weiglein draws a parallel to the heroic story of saving the Sacramento Kings from moving to Seattle, emphasizing his refusal to engage with an owner like Fisher.

Quick Glance: Fans Criticize Lakers for Collapse Against Nuggets
  • The Los Angeles Lakers seemed to be heading towards a significant victory in Game 2 of their first-round series against the Denver Nuggets, but a dramatic collapse in the fourth quarter resulted in a lost lead and a 101-99 defeat.

  • Following the loss, NBA fans heavily criticized the Lakers for their performance.

  • The Lakers have now suffered six consecutive playoff losses against the Nuggets, dating back to the last Western Conference Finals.

  • A return to Los Angeles could assist the Lakers in refocusing to avoid a seemingly insurmountable 3-0 deficit. The third game between Los Angeles and Denver is scheduled for Thursday at 10:00 p.m. ET.
