The Oakland Athletics have made the grade once again. Congratulations, AL West Champs! And now the playoff series begins. Here is a fine team to root for with excellent team dynamics, plenty of charisma, humor and humility. And superfans with enough time on their hands to go the extra mile for their team. Photos below.
I'm not going to write a bunch of facts on the A's. Looks like big media is finally picking up on their story, after the entire season has almost come to an end—right on time. The A's, as Rodney Dangerfield would say, don't get no respect. I hope they win and win big because they're more than deserving. When I watch the A's, I'm reminded of the spirit of baseball—that almost magical alchemy that comes from the field of good play, good intentions, good heart and of course, ability.
Hat's off.

| Big-head A's racers - like Mardi Gras every home game |
 |
| A crafty superfan - make this with items you find around the house |
 |
| I hope this guy's a real fireman and not just pretending - still, good helmet |
 |
| The dream parade |
 |
| Almost scary, but mostly absurd |
 |
| And these guys... A+ |
Any team that has Coco Crisp is a worth rooting for.

| COCO! COCO! COCO! |
