Rudy’s Can’t Fail Cafe Oakland Closed As Rent, Wage Increase Victim - Video Wow. Rudy's Cant Fail Cafe Closes In Oakland. This vlogger's favorite late night breakfast place shut its doors on July 26th 2018. And I found out the hard way: hungry for a Rudy's Cant Fail Cafe helping of Green Eggs and Ham (not kidding), after attending the TechCrunch August Capital Party in Menlo Park (they only had cheeseburger sliders, and I don't eat cheese on my sliders, so I passed). I was starving. Rudy's Cant Fail Cafe In Oakland was right off the 19th Street BART Station exit part of Fox Theater and next to Make Westing Bar, so it was an easy walk. And closed. A couple of security guard friends of mine told me the shutter was abrupt, and workers were laid off without warning and the culprit was a rumored rent increase on top of the higher minimum wage regulations for 2018 in Oakland. The Rudy's folks left a note on the door that reads "We are sad to announce that aft

Oakland Coliseum JPA Livestream For July 27th Meeting - Raiders Lease - Video Oakland Coliseum JPA Livestream For July 27th Meeting - Raiders Lease The meeting was marked by a discussion of how much money the Coliseum was making. Alameda County Supervisor Scott Haggerty was insistent that the financial report did not show all of the monies made over the last fiscal year.

Charlie Casserly’s Dez Bryant Comments On NFL Network Were Stupid - Video Charlie Casserly, the NFL Network Analyst and former General Manager of The Washington Redskins, made some really stupid and seemingly personal comments about Dez Bryant on the broadcast of Thursday evening.

Guess what? The Rams has Dez pattern covered with two inside linebackers and the free safety in the middle. But Cowboys QB Dak Prescott threw the ball to Dez anyw
