The Athletics have started the process to final acknowledge their move to Las Vegas.
According to the Las Vegas Sun, the West Sacramento Ballpark, the team introduced their new merchandise featuring their new home.
The A’s announced during the offseason that a directive is to only refer to the organization by its nickname and not its new city (West Sacramento) or its future one (Las Vegas, theoretically), are now finally selling gear that actually references West Sacramento.
At the last game, fans began to notice the change and took to Reddit to comment on the new merchandise. Fans cited the baseball T-shirt with gold sleeves and “Sacramento” written multiple times in a multicolored hippy-style font in the team store.
The week in their series against the Twins, the team shop also received the team shop received a varsity-style jacket with an embroidered logo of the Tower Bridge and “Sacramento” written in the team’s colors, team store manager Daniela Gonzalez told SFGATE.
At Wednesday’s game, the merchandise grew even more, with a gray shirt that reads “ATHLETICS BASEBALL” and the embroidered bridge logo next to the text. That design was also available on a crewneck sweater. As of Wednesday evening, the new pieces of apparel were not available for sale online — only at the ballpark itself. They don’t come cheap, either: The gray shirt and the baseball tee cost $50 each (though youth variants of the baseball tees were slightly cheaper), the sweater costs $100, and the jacket costs $200.
More Sacramento-focused merchandise is expected as the season progresses until the move to Las Vegas is complete.

Oklahoma Sooners star player responds to weird criticism in the best way possible after win over Tennessee
The Oklahoma Sooners went to Knoxville, Tennessee, and beat the Tennessee Volunteers in their first-ranked road win since 2019. And for some reason, all of the talk was about OU kicker Tate Sandell and the pants he was wearing, not enough about the insane kicks he was making. Sandell's football pants were rolled up to his thighs, which, although not completely normal, is more common in today's game. Kirk Herbstreit and everyone else could not stop talking about the pants, so much so that Herbstreit actually said Sandell should have been flagged for his pants being so high. Sandell responded to that via a tweet, saying "smh," which is an abbreviation for "shaking my head." In other words, he wasn't a fan of what was being said. It's a good thing he's good at kicking. Tate Sandell is the MVP from the Sooners' win over Tennessee This may have been the best kicking game in OU football history. That's saying something when you factor in how much history is in this program. Sandell was responsible for 15 points against Tennessee on Saturday. That's pretty impressive considering the Sooners scored 33 and he's - I don't know - the kicker. Sandell was 4/4 on field goals and 3/3 on extra points, with his longest being 55 twice. He also made a 51-yarder, too. Sandell, at this point, is a weapon for Oklahoma. As long as they pass the opponent's 40-yard line, they feel comfortable that they will walk away from that drive with some points. In college football, not every team can say that with their kicker situation. At this rate, Sandell could end up becoming one of the greatest OU kickers ever, and knowing how bad this offense has been, he's going to be needed a ton as the Sooners get ready to play teams like the Alabama Crimson Tide and the LSU Tigers. window.addEventListener('message', function (event) {if (event.data.totalpoll event.data.totalpoll.action === 'resizeHeight') {document.querySelector('#totalpoll-iframe-1538').height = event.data.totalpoll.value;}}, false);document.querySelector('#totalpoll-iframe-1538').contentWindow.postMessage({totalpoll: {action: 'requestHeight'}}, '*');
Future Alabama Stars Shine on Friday Night
Dolphins' Mike McDaniel Reveals Tua Tagovailoa Decision Before Bills Game
Through nine weeks of the NFL season, the Miami Dolphins have been one of the worst teams in the league. Following the team's 28-6 Week 9 loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday night, the Dolphins have fallen to 2-7 on the year, and have seemingly already laid the groundwork for a total rebuild. One day after the loss, the Dolphins announced that they had fired general manager Chris Grier. A change in power at the GM role indicates that no one on the roster is safe moving forward, as whoever is brought in will have ties or allegiances with the current regime. One person who many believed could be at risk of losing his job is quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. The Pro Bowl quarterback has been a shell of his former self this season, throwing for 1,779 yards with 15 touchdowns and 11 picks through nine games. For reference, Tagovailoa's previous career high in interceptions came in 2023, when he threw 14 in 17 games. Head coach Mike McDaniel benched Tagovailoa in the team's Oct. 19 loss to the Cleveland Browns after he threw three interceptions and lost a fumble, turning to rookie quarterback Quinn Ewers. While calls have been growing again for Tagovailoa to be sent to the bench once and for all, McDaniel confirmed that he's not entertaining that idea at this time. When speaking to the media on Monday ahead of the team's Week 10 game against the Buffalo Bills (6-2), McDaniels confirmed he is not anywhere close to making that decision at this time. "I am far from even going down that direction of would've, could've possible things," McDaniel said. "We have a football game against the Buffalo Bills that we are certain that Tua gives us the best chance to win and we have to approach our jobs with diligence. We have to execute and Tua knows that heavy is crown that of being a franchise quarterback." According to ESPN BET, the Bills have opened as 8.5-point favorites. While Miami looks to stay afloat on the season, the Bills are coming off of a monster win over Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs, as they look to make a Super Bowl run this season. As for the Dolphins, they haven't beaten the Bills since 2022, and are 1-9 against them in their last 10. Tagovailoa has been far from spectacular this season, but is clearly being given some grace by McDaniel. With that being said, the Dolphins have a bye in a couple of weeks, and it does cause one to wonder if that is when the Dolphins would end up benching the former Alabama star if things don't turn around.
Commanders are reportedly ready to trade 2 Super Bowl veterans
The NFL trade deadline is 24 hours away, and the Washington Commanders have been thrust firmly into a seller position after falling to the Seattle Seahawks 38-14 to fall to 3-6 on the year. There was hope that a solid defensive performance against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 8 would transfer to an even better showing against the Seahawks. Still, ultimately, the Commanders fell further than ever before, and with the loss of quarterback Jayden Daniels, there isn’t much outside hope left for the season, despite eight games remaining on the schedule. According to NFL insider Jordan Schultz, Washington may not be punting on the season, but may be looking to move players as the deadline nears. The First Names to Surface “Sources: The Commanders have been open to trading several players, including OL Andrew Wylie and OL Nick Allegretti, both of whom bring extensive starting and playoff experience,” Schultz reported. “Wylie has valuable position flexibility, having played both guard spots and right tackle during his career.” Why These Players Make Sense Both Wylie and Allegretti arrived at the Commanders with Super Bowl experience, having been part of championship Kansas City Chiefs rosters in the past. Although both have played important roles on this team at times, they were eventually replaced by younger options. For Wylie, his replacement in the starting lineup came in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft when the team drafted right tackle Josh Conerly Jr. out of Oregon. Allegretti started all of last year at left guard for Washington but was moved to the right side to start the season while the team tried second-year lineman Brandon Coleman at his position after trading for left tackle Laremy Tunsil in the offseason. With Sam Cosmi returning from his knee injury, both Wylie and Allegretti now serve backup roles with versatility. Wylie has the ability to play as a tackle and guard. At the same time, Allegretti can also serve as a team’s center and was counted on at times last year to help set protections when center Tyler Biadasz was battling injury. The Potential Return Each player would likely return a future Day 3 draft pick to the Commanders, who currently have six picks in the 2026 NFL Draft, including two in the sixth round after trading away second and fourth round picks to the Houston Texans for Tunsil. Of course, there’s also a possibility Washington could look to trade player for player in this scenario, as Schultz’s report doesn’t state exclusively that the team is looking for draft capital. With eight games remaining, and a ‘never say die’ approach to the game, we wouldn’t be totally floored if the Commanders tried to bring in players at other positions to try and save their sinking season before it takes on too much water. The NFL trade deadline is Tuesday, November 4, at 4:00 p.m. ET.
Canadiens Player Sends Clear Message After Senators Targeted Ivan Demidov
Montreal Canadiens defenseman Jayden Struble didn’t hesitate when Ottawa Senators forward Nick Cousins came back through Bell Centre on Saturday night. Weeks after Cousins’ preseason slash on Canadiens rookie Ivan Demidov, Struble delivered his own message during Montreal’s 4–3 overtime win. The Habs defenseman dropped the gloves with 18 minutes, 45 seconds left to play in the third period and the game tied at 2, settling a feud that lingered since training camp. “When you have a guy like that taking a shot at your star young player, that was a bad play,” Struble said. “None of us liked it. We were thinking about it. This is the first time we played him since. That’s on our minds. You can’t go around trying to hurt our best players.” Cousins spent most of the night trying to avoid both Struble and Montreal’s usual enforcer, Arber Xhekaj, before finally being caught after two full periods. The fight was brief but decisive, ending with Cousins bloodied and leaving the game. Struble, 24, said there was no personal vendetta, just a need to hold opponents accountable for their actions, even more in preseason exhibitions. Back in October, the NHL fined Cousins $2,148.44, the maximum allowable under the collective bargaining agreement. Cousins was only assessed a minor penalty for slashing during that preseason matchup. Struble made it clear on Saturday that Montreal won’t forget when a player crosses the line, saying, “We’ll protect our guys. That’s how it should be.” For the Canadiens, the moment carried meaning beyond retaliation. Demidov, the target of Cousins' slash in September, tied the game late in regulation before Alex Newhook sealed the win in overtime. The Canadiens and the Senators will meet three more times this season, the next matchup scheduled for Dec. 2 once again in Montreal.
