How can someone interested in baseball history be against a team in Portland? That’s PCL royalty and there’s always been baseball in that town.

Don't you understand? We can't have a team in a city where there's a homeless problem. Oh, the horror!!!!

Where do the Tigers play again? How about the Giants? Or Yankees and Mets? Those must be really nice places.

The Giants play at a great Stadium in shitholistan, it's a shame how the people in charge have let that City degrade.

The stadium is on the wharf. It's beautiful over there. Who considers the wharf a bad area? Nobody. And that's the point. If there was a stadium in Portland, where do you think it would be built?

Put a 2nd one in St Louis.

Browns & Cardinals co-existed for a long time.

There are homeless everywhere, it’s issue all over the US. Portland is not unique in that aspect. We have homeless encampments provided by the city in my town as well and I live in Montana. How many times have you been to Portland? It’s a beautiful city, and would be a great place for an MLB team.

Yes, mass murder of society's "undesirables' - that's never not worked out well
