Oakland no longer has the NBA or the NFL. And the A's wouldn't really be competition.

You'd still attract some people from across the bridge and the south bay in Oakland. Basically the same with SF. But nobody is travelling to Sac for a Sharks game.
I am not too familiar with the geography of the Bay area, but my understanding was that Oakland is still within the commutershed of San Francisco, at least more so than San Jose. Therefore a franchise in Oakland would still compete with SF franchises for fans.
