I also know that the Athletics have been in Oakland for a long time, but to me, I think of them being more from Philadelphia than either Kansas City or Oakland. I feel similarly about a number of other relocated franchises in the Big Four leagues as well.
For instance, the Chargers and Cardinals from the NFL, as to San Diego and St. Louis, respectively. Maybe because they were in those cities when I started following sports, but don't know for sure, probably, I think. As for other teams that moved before I was born, it may be a case-by-case basis for each of them, in truth.
I've certainly looked for more California Angels-related posts and uniform/cap/logo sets, for instance, appropriate for multiple eras, but have generally been unsuccessful in finding them here, unfortunately, folks. Most Angels-related sets are either LA-based or Anaheim-based, if not related to their minor league affiliates over the years, you see. I typically regard the Los Angeles and Anaheim designations as suitable for minor league or college or high school-level affiliates, or might, in relation to my ideal sports-related universe, if not suitable as potential teams in any or all of the other three Big Four leagues, to be honest.
Well, that's enough to talk about here for now, I think. CD out.
