As a European sports fan, I just don't understand (or like) the US franchise system where teams with long-established routes in one city can up and leave to another part of the country like that.
My "old days!" My first games were at Seal Stadium in SF right after the Giants were uprooted.

I can see your point here. My parents were huge baseball fans- and "courted" when the Giants and Dodgers were NY teams. Since they eventually settled in northern CA, they were happy about these teams ending up here. Although, they sure talked up the days of the "Bums".
