"bio": "• I write and edit stories about how Silicon Valley power and policies shape everyday life in California. I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

I spoke afterward with Clorox's chairman and CEO, Don Knauss.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Knauss\u003c/strong>: We're very interested in working with Lew Wolff and John Fisher, the A's current ownership, to keep the A's here and to build a new stadium. Two-and-a-half years ago, some 45 companies in the East Bay committed to being corporate sponsors and put over a million dollars in escrow as sort of a down payment on sponsorships -- things like marketing programs, seat licenses, luxury suite commitments. Anything to demonstrate to the current ownership that we as the business community were very committed to keeping the A's here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now we really haven't had any meaningful discussions with the current ownership since then, so we thought it was time to reinvigorate our message to them, given that there's a Major League Baseball owners' meeting coming up later this month. We're eager to work with them, and we think we've made a public display of affection, if you will.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the current ownership is not committed to Oakland, we're confident we have identified a new ownership group who can and will buy the team if it is put up for sale. And that new ownership group would be committed to staying, keeping the team in Oakland, and getting a new stadium built. So we want to be clear to (Major League Baseball) Commissioner Selig and the rest of the owners, that the business community, the city, the county, and obviously the fans are very committed to keeping the A's here in their home town.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Thorsen\u003c/strong>: Can you identify those prospective buyers?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Knauss\u003c/strong>: Well, we think that's premature.

We care a lot about this community and the vibrancy of this community.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think my personal experience helps this as well. About ten years ago I was president and CEO of the Minute Maid Corporation in Houston. I got involved in the design of the new Astros ballpark in downtown Houston, and then negotiated the naming rights to change the name of that park to Minute Maid Park in 2002. And I saw what that ballpark did to the revitalization of downtown, in terms of jobs, the economic growth that came out of it, tourism, and just the general vitality it introduced into Houston. I don't think it's unlike what AT&T Park did to revitalize that part of San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So I've seen firsthand what can be done. And Oakland, I think, deserves that chance, to get that kind of economic vitality brought back to the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Thorsen\u003c/strong>: Is there a preference among the business community for the proposals for \u003ca href=\"http://www.eastbayexpress.com/92510/archives/2012/03/09/coliseum-city-oaklands-only-shot\" target=\"_blank\">Coliseum City\u003c/a> or \u003ca href=\"http://baseballoakland.blogspot.com/2011/03/why-we-love-victory-court.html\" target=\"_blank\">Victory Court\u003c/a>?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Knauss\u003c/strong>: As I've had discussions with people who could potentially participate in this ownership group, I think a downtown site could be preferable. But first and foremost, we want to keep it in Oakland. There's some interesting options with Victory Court and other sites downtown, that are more difficult now with the end of redevelopment funding, but not impossible when you look at the model the Giants used to get AT&T Park built with private funds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Half of the purchase price of that stadium was through bank loans, and the other half was basically equity generated by all the sponsorship deals and seat licenses and luxury boxes. That model could be replicated over here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Thorsen\u003c/strong>: You talked to Major League Baseball's fact-finding group about this issue three years ago. Do you expect to hear from MLB again, now that you've thrown down this gauntlet?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Knauss\u003c/strong>: I certainly hope we'll hear from Major League Baseball. I think the owners are going to hear from Lew Wolff and/or John Fisher at the upcoming May meeting. I don't think it's on the agenda, I'm not privy to that, but certainly after three-plus years, I would think a decision's got to be made sometime in the near future.\u003cbr>\n-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Of course, many people have thought a decision on the A's territorial rights issue was imminent over the course of the last three years. So far, they've all been wrong. Back in February, A's managing partner Lew Wolff sounded an impatient note in a \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2012/02/09/weve-got-that-lew-wolff-san-jose-rotary-club-address-youve-been-wanting-to-check-out/\" target=\"_blank\">talk to the San Jose Rotary Club\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>I'm not going to continue this (waiting for permission to move) much longer. What we want is an answer. We want a \"Yes, you can relocate, share the district, share the territory\". Or \"You can't.\" We have a way of demanding a vote (from MLB) but that isn't our nature. So the best thing for us to do in the next couple of months is see where we go. After that, though, I think I have to -- I can't even continue to come to these wonderful lunches, I'd feel like (Bernie) Madoff, or somebody.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Did that signal a level of impatience that could lead Wolff to sell the team if he doesn't get permission to move to San Jose soon?

Two-and-a-half years ago, some 45 companies in the East Bay committed to being corporate sponsors and put over a million dollars in escrow as sort of a down payment on sponsorships -- things like marketing programs, seat licenses, luxury suite commitments. Anything to demonstrate to the current ownership that we as the business community were very committed to keeping the A's here.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now we really haven't had any meaningful discussions with the current ownership since then, so we thought it was time to reinvigorate our message to them, given that there's a Major League Baseball owners' meeting coming up later this month. We're eager to work with them, and we think we've made a public display of affection, if you will.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If the current ownership is not committed to Oakland, we're confident we have identified a new ownership group who can and will buy the team if it is put up for sale. And that new ownership group would be committed to staying, keeping the team in Oakland, and getting a new stadium built. So we want to be clear to (Major League Baseball) Commissioner Selig and the rest of the owners, that the business community, the city, the county, and obviously the fans are very committed to keeping the A's here in their home town.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Baseball is changing from an escape from the workday world to an extension of the office. Jeffrey August works in network engineering for Facebook. \"I get asked to come to meetings that include a Giants game probably at least once a month during the baseball season,\" he said. \"Since 2006, I think I've been to a total of two meetings at the Oakland Coliseum.\" (\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/a/kqednews/RN201204190633/a\">Read more here\u003c/a>)\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Although we spent a lot of time on the stadium topic, there's even more to say about it. We didn't go into the issue of territorial rights, which is the immediate roadblock to the San Jose move that A's ownership wants to make. The rights to Santa Clara County are currently assigned by Major League Baseball to the San Francisco Giants. For the A's to get them, either the Giants have to be persuaded to relinquish them or MLB has to take them away. (A diarist at Athletics Nation just did a \u003ca href=\"//www.athleticsnation.com/2012/4/18/2958535/territorial-rights-a-not-so-brief-history\" target=\"_blank\">much more detailed history\u003c/a> on the territorial rights issue, if you're interested.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We also didn't discuss the importance of broadcast revenues in baseball economics. Hypothetically a new stadium leads to a better team with better attendance, and then a better broadcast deal, and then more revenues to put back in the team, and even better attendance, and so on. This virtuous cycle is a very big factor in the success of big-market teams like the \u003ca href=\"http://www.usatoday.com/sports/baseball/story/2012-02-06/MLB-teams-using-lucrative-TV-deals-to-sign-talent/53032284/1\" target=\"_blank\">Yankees\u003c/a> and the \u003ca href=\"http://articles.latimes.com/2011/dec/08/sports/la-sp-angels-fox-tv-20111209\" target=\"_blank\">Angels\u003c/a>.

We didn't find answers to any of the questions about the A's future. What we did find, in the course of 18 interviews and a few community and city council events, was genuine concern for the best interests of the team on the part of everyone who chimed in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>MLB owners have a scheduled meeting in mid-May; the question of the future home of the A's may be on the agenda, or it may not. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, the A's return to the Oakland Coliseum on Friday for a six-game homestand that will include \u003ca href=\"http://oakland.athletics.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20120416&content_id=28844050¬ebook_id=28844528&vkey=notebook_oak&c_id=oak\">a celebration\u003c/a> of Oakland's first World Series victory, in 1972.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>(Parts \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/a/kqednews/RN201204030633\" target=\"_blank\">one\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/a/kqednews/RN201204120633\" target=\"_blank\">two\u003c/a> of the A's ballpark series here.)\u003c/p>\n\n",

Baseball is changing from an escape from the workday world to an extension of the office. Jeffrey August works in network engineering for Facebook. \"I get asked to come to meetings that include a Giants game probably at least once a month during the baseball season,\" he said. \"Since 2006, I think I've been to a total of two meetings at the Oakland Coliseum.\" (\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/a/kqednews/RN201204190633/a\">Read more here\u003c/a>)\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Although we spent a lot of time on the stadium topic, there's even more to say about it. We didn't go into the issue of territorial rights, which is the immediate roadblock to the San Jose move that A's ownership wants to make. The rights to Santa Clara County are currently assigned by Major League Baseball to the San Francisco Giants. For the A's to get them, either the Giants have to be persuaded to relinquish them or MLB has to take them away. (A diarist at Athletics Nation just did a \u003ca href=\"//www.athleticsnation.com/2012/4/18/2958535/territorial-rights-a-not-so-brief-history\" target=\"_blank\">much more detailed history\u003c/a> on the territorial rights issue, if you're interested.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We also didn't discuss the importance of broadcast revenues in baseball economics. Hypothetically a new stadium leads to a better team with better attendance, and then a better broadcast deal, and then more revenues to put back in the team, and even better attendance, and so on. This virtuous cycle is a very big factor in the success of big-market teams like the \u003ca href=\"http://www.usatoday.com/sports/baseball/story/2012-02-06/MLB-teams-using-lucrative-TV-deals-to-sign-talent/53032284/1\" target=\"_blank\">Yankees\u003c/a> and the \u003ca href=\"http://articles.latimes.com/2011/dec/08/sports/la-sp-angels-fox-tv-20111209\" target=\"_blank\">Angels\u003c/a>. Not so for the A's.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Our last segment began with a quote from the film version of \u003cem>\u003ca href=\"http://www.moneyball-movie.com/site/\" target=\"_blank\">Moneyball\u003c/a>\u003c/em> -- \"How can you not be romantic about baseball?\" We feel that as fans, of course, but we also know that there are unromantic business decisions behind what happens on the field. We didn't find answers to any of the questions about the A's future. What we did find, in the course of 18 interviews and a few community and city council events, was genuine concern for the best interests of the team on the part of everyone who chimed in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>MLB owners have a scheduled meeting in mid-May; the question of the future home of the A's may be on the agenda, or it may not. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Well, that couple of years has turned into a dozen, and they're still not here, and we're still waiting for a decision from Bud Selig and Major League Baseball.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To be a major metropolitan area with a core city like San Jose, you need a number of things. You need the arts, you need a ballet, you need museums like the Tech and the San Jose Museum of Art and the Triton and the others. You need good traffic and transportation alternatives. You need parks and recreation. You need colleges and hospitals. Professional sports are just one part of it, not the most important part, but it's part of what makes a major metropolitan area, it's why you want to live somewhere.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People are always concerned about parking and traffic, but here's what I learned from the Sharks. The way you smooth out or dilute the traffic is by having something to do before the game and after the game. People come to a Sharks game way early and eat or drink, and the same after the game.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the most important component is the number of ways in and out. I go to a Sharks game and I'm on 280 heading north no more than 10 minutes after the game. We have excellent traffic access and opportunities -- 87, 280, 101, or Coleman Avenue to 880. And between the HP Pavilion and the ballpark is Diridon Station. BART will be there, heavy rail is there now, Caltrain, light rail goes through there as well.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The arena (HP Pavilion) passed in the early 90's, by a very narrow margin with a lot of opposition. Today you can't find three people that'll admit they voted against it. And I think the same thing will happen with the ballpark. There's always fears about certain things that never seem to happen. There's some people that are just threatened, by the arts, threatened by sports, and they will always exist. Of course it's perfectly appropriate for citizens, particularly those that reside nearby, to raise questions, and that's what the environmental review process is part of as well. Once those things are adjusted and meaninful concessions made, I would love to see people say \"Okay, let's go.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the problems with the Coliseum is there are too many seats. In the 70s, I walked up and bought a ticket at game time to the World Series. When you have too many seats, you're not compelled to buy season tickets. And when you're not compelled to buy season tickets, then the performance of the team on the field dictates your attendance. And that's the biggest problem the A's have; they have a loyal fan base, they have a rich history of success in baseball, much more so than the San Francisco Giants, but if you don't feel you need to buy season tickets in order to get a good seat at the game, it's a self-defeating prophecy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's why Lew Wolff wants to build a substantially smaller ballpark. There are more Red Sox or Yankees fans at A's games when they're the opponents than there are A's fans. That's embarrassing and it's disappointing, particularly for an A's fan. I think given the issues that the A's are having with attendance and broadcast revenue, that the A's need San Jose desperately. And we will welcome them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Earthquakes are here, they're going to build a new stadium, the Sharks have been a tremendous success, the 49ers are coming to Santa Clara and will be a great asset to this city and this county and this region.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think the A's, as Lew Wolff has indicated, just can't sustain their current situation much longer. And I believe the Giants think if they can cause them to sustain their current situation much longer, they will control the entire baseball market in the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Michael Mulcahy, a lifelong A's fan, is the president of \u003ca href=\"http://www.probaseballforsanjose.com/\">Baseball San Jose\u003c/a>, a group that supports a downtown ballpark and the relocation of the A's franchise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>This is that next shot in the arm that allows San Jose to build upon its reputation as the capital of Silicon Valley, the center of innovation. And to build a community that has all the assets that are going to attract good employees, families that want to live and stay and work here.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">If you're a California baseball fan, an Oakland A's fan, you sure better hope they land in San Jose because California could lose the team entirely.\u003cbr>\n-Michael Mulcahy, president of Baseball San Jose\u003cbr>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>We've seen in San Jose what Major League sports can do. The Sharks are a perfect example. The spirit of our city is rising or falling depending on whether the Sharks are in third position for the playoff hunt, or eighth or ninth and out of the picture. Because our people in downtown San Jose, the business owners, the restaurant owners, know that their entire month of April and May rises and falls on whether or not the Sharks make the playoffs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Jose needs the A's as much as the A's need San Jose, and frankly I think that if you're a California baseball fan, an Oakland A's fan, you sure better hope they land in San Jose because California could lose the team entirely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I believe that time heals all wounds and winning heals all wounds. And I think if we're in a wonderful intimate ballpark that's accessible by Caltrain, in a downtown where there's all the services and restaurants and parking, I think we'll be able to attract not just those East Bay fans, but beyond...people who live south of San Jose who are two hours plus away from AT&T Park or the Oakland Coliseum. You add the region down to Salinas and out to Monterey and through Santa Cruz and Watsonville -- it broadens the baseball community that much more.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Marc Morris heads an independent citizen group called \u003ca href=\"//www.bettersensesanjose.org/\">Better Sense San Jose\u003c/a>, which is opposed to the ballpark deal. (The organization is not to be confused with Stand For San Jose, a group which is at least partly financed by the Giants's San Jose Class A franchise, and which has actually \u003ca href=\"http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/12/03/stand-for-san-jose-sues-city_n_1127229.html\">filed suit against the ballpark plan\u003c/a>.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>We think of this as essentially a vanity project for the city political leaders, and to some extent the business community, that will deliver much less benefit than promised, and cost the city and the residents of San Jose much more than we're being told.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's the great prestige argument (that sports teams increase a city's visibility). And I just ask people, look at Detroit. Detroit has major league baseball, major league football, major league basketball, major league hockey. What do you think about when you think of Detroit? You don't think \"prestige,\" you think \"economic collapse.\" And you don't have to look any further than Oakland to see the same thing. Oakland has baseball, football, and basketball, and while Oakland has a lot of good things, good restaurants and good neighborhoods, it does not get a great deal of respect, unfortunately. So the notion that major league sports brands your city in any way is silly.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">The reason for building these new stadiums is to put in a lot more high-priced seats and luxury boxes that only corporations can afford.\u003cbr>\n-Marc Morris, Better Sense San Jose\u003cbr>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>It's fundamentally about money and nothing but money. And the money these days, and the reason for building these new stadiums, is to put in a lot more high-priced seats and luxury boxes that only corporations can afford. And also to build all the concessions in, the places where you buy beer and food and merchandise. That negates the notion that this would generate business outside the stadium, because the whole purpose of the stadium is to capture all the money inside the stadium for the benefit of the team ownership.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We're concerned about the impact, not only on the neighborhoods around the stadium, but to the city as a whole. Even aside from the impact on people trying to get to the game, or to downtown or out of downtown, anyone who lives in south San Jose who's commuting to north San Jose where the jobs are, or going up the Peninsula, cannot avoid that freeway traffic. It's just going to be a nightmare.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Next week's story: economic implications of an A's move for both San Jose and Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

And that's the biggest problem the A's have; they have a loyal fan base, they have a rich history of success in baseball, much more so than the San Francisco Giants, but if you don't feel you need to buy season tickets in order to get a good seat at the game, it's a self-defeating prophecy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's why Lew Wolff wants to build a substantially smaller ballpark. There are more Red Sox or Yankees fans at A's games when they're the opponents than there are A's fans. That's embarrassing and it's disappointing, particularly for an A's fan. I think given the issues that the A's are having with attendance and broadcast revenue, that the A's need San Jose desperately. And we will welcome them.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Earthquakes are here, they're going to build a new stadium, the Sharks have been a tremendous success, the 49ers are coming to Santa Clara and will be a great asset to this city and this county and this region.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think the A's, as Lew Wolff has indicated, just can't sustain their current situation much longer. And I believe the Giants think if they can cause them to sustain their current situation much longer, they will control the entire baseball market in the Bay Area.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Michael Mulcahy, a lifelong A's fan, is the president of \u003ca href=\"http://www.probaseballforsanjose.com/\">Baseball San Jose\u003c/a>, a group that supports a downtown ballpark and the relocation of the A's franchise.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>This is that next shot in the arm that allows San Jose to build upon its reputation as the capital of Silicon Valley, the center of innovation. And to build a community that has all the assets that are going to attract good employees, families that want to live and stay and work here.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">If you're a California baseball fan, an Oakland A's fan, you sure better hope they land in San Jose because California could lose the team entirely.\u003cbr>\n-Michael Mulcahy, president of Baseball San Jose\u003cbr>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>We've seen in San Jose what Major League sports can do. The Sharks are a perfect example. The spirit of our city is rising or falling depending on whether the Sharks are in third position for the playoff hunt, or eighth or ninth and out of the picture. Because our people in downtown San Jose, the business owners, the restaurant owners, know that their entire month of April and May rises and falls on whether or not the Sharks make the playoffs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Jose needs the A's as much as the A's need San Jose, and frankly I think that if you're a California baseball fan, an Oakland A's fan, you sure better hope they land in San Jose because California could lose the team entirely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I believe that time heals all wounds and winning heals all wounds. And I think if we're in a wonderful intimate ballpark that's accessible by Caltrain, in a downtown where there's all the services and restaurants and parking, I think we'll be able to attract not just those East Bay fans, but beyond...people who live south of San Jose who are two hours plus away from AT&T Park or the Oakland Coliseum. You add the region down to Salinas and out to Monterey and through Santa Cruz and Watsonville -- it broadens the baseball community that much more.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Marc Morris heads an independent citizen group called \u003ca href=\"//www.bettersensesanjose.org/\">Better Sense San Jose\u003c/a>, which is opposed to the ballpark deal. (The organization is not to be confused with Stand For San Jose, a group which is at least partly financed by the Giants's San Jose Class A franchise, and which has actually \u003ca href=\"http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/12/03/stand-for-san-jose-sues-city_n_1127229.html\">filed suit against the ballpark plan\u003c/a>.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>We think of this as essentially a vanity project for the city political leaders, and to some extent the business community, that will deliver much less benefit than promised, and cost the city and the residents of San Jose much more than we're being told.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's the great prestige argument (that sports teams increase a city's visibility). And I just ask people, look at Detroit. Detroit has major league baseball, major league football, major league basketball, major league hockey. What do you think about when you think of Detroit? You don't think \"prestige,\" you think \"economic collapse.\" And you don't have to look any further than Oakland to see the same thing. Oakland has baseball, football, and basketball, and while Oakland has a lot of good things, good restaurants and good neighborhoods, it does not get a great deal of respect, unfortunately. So the notion that major league sports brands your city in any way is silly.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">The reason for building these new stadiums is to put in a lot more high-priced seats and luxury boxes that only corporations can afford.\u003cbr>\n-Marc Morris, Better Sense San Jose\u003cbr>\n\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>It's fundamentally about money and nothing but money. And the money these days, and the reason for building these new stadiums, is to put in a lot more high-priced seats and luxury boxes that only corporations can afford. And also to build all the concessions in, the places where you buy beer and food and merchandise. That negates the notion that this would generate business outside the stadium, because the whole purpose of the stadium is to capture all the money inside the stadium for the benefit of the team ownership.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We're concerned about the impact, not only on the neighborhoods around the stadium, but to the city as a whole. Even aside from the impact on people trying to get to the game, or to downtown or out of downtown, anyone who lives in south San Jose who's commuting to north San Jose where the jobs are, or going up the Peninsula, cannot avoid that freeway traffic. It's just going to be a nightmare.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Next week's story: economic implications of an A's move for both San Jose and Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

We did the demolition work on the old factory last year. So if you consider what it was, a tank factory, and now it's going to be a professional sports venue, that's a pretty big change. It’s gentrification of an area that had been blighted and unused, which is a real positive for the community.\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>I asked him what happens to the land if the Quakes don’t succeed in putting a stadium there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>The reality is maybe nothing would get built here. Maybe it would just lie empty for a long time. We have the option to develop the whole property, so in the long term this would include the stadium on 14 acres, our practice facility, and four lighted and turfed public soccer fields. And we have it zoned for a hotel and commercial real estate. It’s going to be a great gateway into San Jose for all the people arriving at the airport.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>Kaval came to the Earthquakes in the fall of 2010 after founding independent baseball’s California Golden League. But soccer has always been a passion for him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>I’ve lived here since the early 1990’s. I went to games when the team was the San Jose Clash, and to the earlier version of the Quakes before the team left for Houston. The Earthquakes originally go back to 1974, when the team started playing in the North American Soccer League in San Jose. It was the first pro sports team in Silicon Valley. For a lot of people who were here at the time, it really helped put the community on the map, and created a lot of camaraderie and civic pride. \u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>And Kaval thinks a new stadium that would belong to the Quakes, instead of the rented college facilities the team has had up to now, would bring a whole new fan base with it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>Similar to when the Sharks got here. Who knew about hockey before we got a hockey team here? And it’s been wildly successful. Well, people already know about soccer. It’s the perfect sport for this international, diverse community of the Silicon Valley. People come here from Europe, Asia, Africa, Latin America, and for many of them their number one sport is soccer.\n\u003c/p>\u003c/blockquote>\n\u003cp>If the Planning Commission gives the green light, construction could start later this year and the Quakes could kick off by the end of 2013. No city money is involved, says Kaval; the team is providing all the funding. The Quakes share ownership with the Oakland A's, who might have a new San Jose stadium of their own if Major League Baseball allows them to move south. Kaval says links between the two stadium proposals have been overblown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cblockquote>\u003cp>We’re really run as our own entity. This process is really a stand-alone process. Since our ownership is basically the same as the A’s, any learning from this, best practices, and how to work with communities, can be helpful to them. But they’re not linked in the way that some people might assume.
