LETTER: The transportation bureaucracy

I hate taking another city’s team, but if we do, it’s fun to embrace the history. In the case with the Oakland A’s, there are rumors that Oakland will keep the team name and colors, with plans to start the team again in the future.

If that’s the case, let Oakland keep its team and give Las Vegas an expansion team. Saddling us with the worst team in Major League Baseball without the benefit of having the team’s history is a joke.

Bruce Feher Las Vegas

Calvin Brown St. Andrews, Manitoba

I’m a Canadian who, like many others, has thoroughly enjoyed past visits to your state. For months, however, we have endured your president’s insults, his unprovoked trade war and his threats to Canada’s sovereignty.
