Andy Dolich Oakland Coliseum JPA Non-Story

Andy Dolich is reported to be in talks to be Oakland Coliseum Executive Director. Well, the fact is, those talks are not at all. It's just more smoke and mirrors around a process of hiring a new leader that has been far too over politicized and so much so that it's making the organization that was originally formed to float bonds to make the new version of the Coliseum for the Raiders look bad. The sad fact is that this latest episode in how the Coliseum Joint Powers Authority does business has sent a sign that Oakland can't even accomplish the simple task of properly hiring a new director. Everything from backstabbing to bad due-diligence to questionable morals has clouded the process. The man who came in second in the entire completion, Scott McKibben, has sat by and waited patiently. He should be rewarded for what he has had to put up with to this point. And so should the Oakland Raiders and the Oakland Athletics, as both teams want the JPA to hire Scott. The question is will the Coliseum JPA actually listen to what their tenants want for a change? Time will tell.
