Twitter: Where A’s fans go to cry, laugh and vent, often at the same time. Another rough week for the Athletics but in true Green Collar fashion, fans took to Twitter to vent their frustrations and try to put a positive spin on the out of control spin of sucktitude the A’s have put on display as of late. Here are this week’s best tweets.
Commentary.
I blame Yoenis for this win..... Oh it doesn't work that way?

Gallego will single handedly solve the energy crisis if the A’s go deep in October.
So much windmilling by @FauxMikeGallego that he generated enough electricity to power the A's offense tomorrow! #Athletics #GreenCollar

I know I shouldn’t, but I love it when Shooty is on the TV broadcast because it brings out the funniest in Athletics related tweets. That being said, I hate when Shooty is on TV.
If only we could harness the energy that powers Shooty's mouth and channel it toward the A's offense.

More Shooty…
My superpower:

Altering Shooty Babbit's words into the Charlie Brown teacher's unintelligible white noise, thus rendering his opinions inert
Fans are now finding back-door ways to reference the Cespedes trade as the cause of our woes.
“@JaneMLB: The A's are batting .197 over their last seven games.” Maybe we need another Pitcher? #Atheltics

As much as I love Shooty on tv, I love Callaspo in the lineup.
Who do you think runs faster: Callaspo, Stomper or one of the kids "stealing third" at home games? #Athletics #GreenCollar

Blasphemous.

More disturbing than the Cespedes trade.
The @Athletics are 3-8 since giving out the bullpen backpack with #JimJohnson on it. #fact #shame #thecurseofJimJohnson #Athletics

These guys are pretty classy.
Sounds like Freiman, Pomeranz were popular during short stay at low Single-A Beloit. Bought several meals for their younger teammates.

You ain’t seen nothing yet. Get us into October and we’ll blow your mind.
Adam Dunn, who has played ONE game with #Athletics said "best crowd I've ever played in front of" now THAT is how you know you got good fans

I like Doo’s lady friend.
@susanslusser at the risk of airing dirty laundry, tell him to keep working at it. There's room to improve. pic.twitter.com/Ou6EEIhnvN

This dude is, seriously, hella classy.
