Why is this not a thing yet? Oh who the hell cares it is now. Thoughts?
>>
Why has the conversation on NFL relocation been dominated by the Chargers and Rams? The Raiders need the new stadium the most
>>
>>64714149
The Raiders can't afford a stadium and nobody is going to build a stadium just for the Raiders.

The Rams and possibly the Chargers could fund a stadium so that's why they're the major players in this.

Most of that report is wrong. All you have to do is walk the streets of LA to see who the most popular team is

I have not ONCE ever seen anyone wear a rams jersey ever. I've seen more 49er jerseys (in fact I see 49er gear on a daily basis on the Metro) than Rams jerseys

How does supporting a "franchise" work? Do you support the city or the franchise? If you were from San Diego and supported the Chargers will you still support them if they become the Los Angeles Chargers, or if a new team came to San Diego would you support the new team instead?

If that were the case, the Rams never would've left Cleveland and the Browns would've died with the AAFL.

Maybe your plan would work after all...
>>
>>64714828
Because they are just spouting it without proof

If Stan releases the research papers that claim he has apparently 50%+ of the market waiting then he would not even need a owners meeting

NFL likes to do their business in a clean fast matter

The fact that he even called Oakland a viable and potentially bigger market than San Francisco is downright hilarious and false .

la could probably handle three teams but then two of the teams would be in the same conference, and it's against the NFL bi-laws to have two teams in one city share a conference
>>
If the world was a just world and the NFL wasn't filled with moneywhoring Jews/horrid owners the only team to move to LA would be the Raiders with the NFL helping fund a stadium without making another team play in it. With a second option, although dumb is the raiders/rams moving to LA which would make the Rams basically Jets 2.0 which have no fan majority anywhere in any county except much worse because California is full with state rivalries so odds are Rams fans showing pride in LA and surrounding areas would get stabbed unlike Jets fans in NY/NJ.

But in the unfair world odds are San Diego is going to get screwed out of their chargers a market they already own, the Rams are going to lose any hold on any place they have fans at and instead become a much shittier version of Jets 2.0, and the Raiders LAs real team is going to end up having their stadium collapse on themselves and the NFL pull up records on how the SF 49ers stadium was made to hold 2 different teams if the case ever arises and the raiders are now located in SF and renamed into the California Raiders in an attempt to keep their fanbase in Oakland and LA which will work since the Raiders is the only real team in those markets.


>>64714455
As this image shows. Jets, no fans. That'll be the rams in LA.
>>
with the amount of betting in pro sports now Vegas should get a team just so an NFL office is close to the Strip.

they do have like 2000000 metro area citizens and not a single team other than U.N.LEL.V.

lots of new territory for naming as well

I'd call them the Sinners and align the divisions to be with the Saints

Youre pathetic. LA has more people in it than most states. Thats why the league is pushing so hard for a team there. The market is absurdly huge.

>>
>>64715980
Ha no we aren't
I'm a actual resident of Las Vegas

I cheer for the Dodgers , lakers , raiders and soon our NHL team if it all works out.

We don't want a NFL team here because it would not work , not for another 10 years at least . A basketball team and NHL team would do just fine
Dodgers are too popular here to allow a MLB team to just spring up and Broncos/Raiders/Cowboys/Cardinals have the largest fanbase here .

The most people wore a cap back in the day, at the very least. Rams never seriously advertised themselves whereas the raiders were a brand.

I lived in San Bernardino in 89-96
Rams weren't as popular as the raiders especially when NWA's popularity peaked but I won't lie and say they didn't have fans because they sure did.

The problem is they were so horribly managed you couldn't tell if they were tying to even advertise their image. I expect the same thing again.
>>
>>64716477
Towards the end of their time in LA, the Rams owner tried actively to make the team bad to deflate attendance because she wanted an excuse to move the team to her hometown.

I haven't heard anyone seriously consider a Three-Team proposal. It's either the Rams go, or the Raiders and Chargers split a stadium. Not both.
>>
>>64716575
Which is why I said one team. I knew at the very least, only the Raiders would find success in LA. The Chargers were already a small market team to begin with will only become more irrelevant and the Rams might have a following but it'll be eclipsed by the Raiders. It's stupid and these men are rich enough that they should know a bad business deal when they see it.
>>
>>64716562
Raiders and Rams would seriously profit from it especially when the younger and part of the older generation would love a raiders team while the older generation would love the Rams back

Chargers do not have a fanbase which confuses me on why spanos would even bother to come here

>>64716019
The thing about the landscape of LA sports is way different than it was in the 80s. LA fans will always love sports, on top of the fact that there's 18 million people.

For example Hockey is a fucking meme in this city followed only by transplants and hipsters and the Kings and Ducks still get middle of the pack attendance wheras a team like Winnipeg has to sell out their whole fucking city just to get the same numbers.

Also the landscape for sports is changing. The Lakers are being run into the garbage can and could bad for a long time unless they strike gold in the lottery this year. The Clippers are perennial one-and-dones. The Dodgers are losing their stars, and the Angels have been a relative failure.

The fervor of having the NFL back in LA could sweep up a huge amount of casuals and bandwagoners who are losing interest in other sport, especially after Kobe retires.

LA Raider fans remind me of Seattle Sonics fans trying to take the Sacramento Kings. The same tone. The same references to facebook and random bleacher report references.

Are all West Coast sports fans like this? You guys know how the real world works, right? Money talks, and the Kroenke report is the most detailed and thought out application of the 3 submitted.

Let it go, the Raiders are most likely not coming back to LA. In fact, they've been relatively silent relative to the Chargers and Rams. That speaks volumes.

Oakland can host a city better than San Francisco which is false

Again false

Rams are losing this battle , the owner knows it and will pull a al davis because he can .

http://www.usmayors.org/pressreleases/uploads/MetroEcon0608.pdf

Page 67 - in 2008, the Oakland metro division made up 45.2% of San Francisco's MSA's metro economy, while the San Francisco side made up 54.8%

http://usmayors.org/metroeconomies/2014/06/report.pdf

In 2014, the Oakland side only made up 42.3% of the SF MSA economy while SF's side made up 57.7%

So I agree with the other dude - how is OAK better? It took me 5 seconds on google to find this
>>
>>64723112

He's right. Of the 3 teams the Rams have the least incentive to move, most of all being that St. Louis has a new stadium plan in place and it would violate league bylaws to move a team in that situation.

If the Rams move it will be a case of Stan doing it because he's rich enough that he can, and could still pull an Al Davis and sue the league if they try to stop him (which the should).
>>
>>64723118
See page 86

I think the more important statistic is this

Growth rates 2010-2012
San Francisco-Oakland: 3.8% growth (ranked 36)
San Diego: 2.4% (ranked 94)
St. Louis: 1.5% (ranked 168th)

By comparison

Los Angeles: 2.1% (ranked 125th)

But the report is misleading when they were making the comparison of SF and OAK when it should've been between OAK vs. SD vs. STL, by which OAK would still by far be the fastest grower compared to SD and STL
>>
>>64722940
>>64723014

http://usmayors.org/metroeconomies/2014/06/report.pdf

SF-OAK is growing faster than both STL and SD while already having a larger economy. I think that's what the report was trying to get at, albeit worded really poorly.

Still though, the Raiders should move back to LA because all that economic growth would probably mean more 49er corporate sponorship than the Raiders
>>
>>64723274

Of course LA is growing. They're all illegal immigrant spics that won't buy any NFL tickets or merch.

Why don't the Raiders just share Levi's Stadium with the 49ers? That Stadium is not in either San Francisco or Oakland.

The fact that Kroenke released this http://media.trb.com/media/acrobat/2016-01/23763808665200-05180540.pdf
Means he's pretty confident in going to LA. You can't come back from that.

You know there's absolutely no way the Rams are moving to LA, right?

Everyone knows that the Chargers and Raiders are ahead in voting and have the better plan. STL is literally throwing their GDP at the Rams while Oakland and SD are letting their teams go.

It's going to set a bad precedent if the NFL starts rejecting public money

Inglewood thoroughly kicks Carson's ass when looked at purely as stadium plans. Carson's literally supposed to be built on a waste dump while Inglewood is in a much more desirable location and shovel-ready right now. Literally only St. Louisans and Dean Spanos think the Carson stadium is even close.
>>
>>64724192

Rams fan here and I hope you're right. The logical solution is the Rams stay in St. Louis with a new stadium, and Kroenke collects rent from the Raiders or Chargers out in Inglewood.

The wild card is that Stan is rich enough to do whatever the fuck he wants, and he could move the Rams despite NFL objections and then pull an Al Davis and sue the league.

tl:dr - I don't know what'll happen with the Rams at this point. Money trumps logic so anything could happen.

> However, as long reported, the Carson project is much, much closer, with probably around 18-20 votes.

I clearly remember the LA Rams when I was a kid. They left when I was 8.

Although I hate the Raiders, dislike the Chargers, and hold no hate for the Rams... I don't think the Rams need LA. St. Louis is a sports city more than capable of hosting them.

The Raiders can stay in Chokeland though. Fuck those thugs. It was their team to begin with.

It should probably be the Chargers. They're the only ones that 'need' LA. DESU, I just want to be able to watch my team live more (Patriots).

How do the Chargers "need" LA but the Raiders don't? All the Raider fans in Oakland are being priced out of the bay, meanwhile LA has a solid Raider fanbase
>>
>>64714149
>Many of the NFL's most influential owners, including some on the league's Los Angeles Relocation committee, continue to have reservations about the Raiders' inclusion in the joint project with the Chargers in Carson, Calif. Their concerns over the strength of the Raiders' ownership group could result in no teams getting approval to move to LA in 2016, ownership sources said. Furthermore, multiple ownership sources said that the odds of a move happening to LA next year would be significantly higher if the Chargers were either moving by themselves, or if they were paired with the Rams.

>Other owners have doubts about whether or not Raiders owner Mark Davis has the acumen to build a strong franchise in a two-team LA market, sources said. And, given that organization's repeated moves under former owner Al Davis and the controversy that ensued -- including suing the league -- there remains a backlash to the Raiders going back to LA. Mark Davis is a polarizing figure, and as popular as Chargers owner Dean Spanos is among his cohorts, Davis is not held in as much esteem. Some owners believe it makes much more sense for the return to LA to begin with one team rather than two.

>Finding a way to get Spanos and Rams owner Stan Kroenke together is viewed as the best-case scenario for a two-team LA market, and although consideration hurdles exist, it may not be impossible if a vote is pushed back to 2017.

>Oakland is also looked at, despite its substantial stadium woes, as a better locale for NFL football given the overall strength of the Bay Area, and Davis, desperate to get out of his current stadium and lacking options, is seen as more malleable by NFL brass and owners to other options, which could potentially include a move to St. Louis should the Chargers and Rams end up going to Los Angeles together.

>>64715589
I live in the county East of San Diego. On one level, I cheer for the Chargers because I'm part of the third generation of my family to do so. On another, I do because San Diego is my home away from home. I grew up vacationing there with my family, went to college there, and even lived there for a few years. I feel a loyalty to it. I cheer for the Chargers because their calling SD home makes geographically my "local" team. The thing is, I've been going to Chargers games and Padres games since I was a kid, and the biggest reinforcement of my disliking of LA (other than the city itself) is every fan of an LA team who has talked shit about San Diego teams. Just in my life, I have endured decades of shittalking that has reinforced a resentment of the city, its teams, and the fans of those teams. Now the team abandoning the city it has called home for all but one year, as well as fans who more than anyone else have defended its against the slander of Los Angelinos, and taking it of all places to the city of those who on the whole have ever only shit on it may or may not be enough to justify an end to my otherwise lifelong fandom, but even polls out of LA demonstrate that the Chargers in any capacity are the last fucking team Los Angelinos want moving to LA. So this argument on the owners part that potentially alienating 75% of fans is justified to preserve 25% just demonstrates what a completely stupid fuck he is, and I say that as an admitted part of that 25% that doesn't live in SD. Because of the betrayal of the loyalty that we the lean number of Chargers die hards have given as well as the betrayal of its home, I would not be able to continue supporting an organization that demonstrates such a clear lack of loyalty. Because of that, were another team to move to SD, I would maintain my loyalty to that city, and reward betrayal with betrayal and cheer for it instead. For the time being though, I'd probably just settle for cheering against the Chargers.

>Everyone knows he wants to return to LA to make the Raiders a global brand.
You have everyone on record for this? You have anyone on record for this? What I've heard about Davis is that he drive's his minivan, and gets his haircut at the same hole in the wall, and takes his players to strip clubs because he's a real ass nigga. Real ass niggas don't play head games. They tell it like it is. Want to see who plays games like what you're saying? This fuck right here. Who says in rare perfectly controlled and planned out statements that he'd love to stay in SD, but that the city government hasn't been able to do enough to keep them. Davis on the other hand tells fans, and calls into radio stations, and sideline reporters while not on camera that he wants to stay in Oakland more than anything. That doesn't seem like a guy practicing some guile. Just a guy speaking from the heart.
Also, of course the Raiders will always be LA's team. that doesn't mean Davis would prefer to go back over staying in Oakland. Contrary to the general opinion of people who live in LA, a lot of folks hate Los Angeles, and would really prefer not to live there. It's not an odd opinion to hold.

It does when you consider one primarily speaks via a special counsel who has literally made a career doing damage control, while the other is a goofy fuck who just talks to anyone who'd listen.
At the end of the day they both have a valid claim that they need a new stadium. Relocation may very well be the only way to get one. Mark Davis just seems to be the one who legitimately wishes he could get on in LA. Dean Spanos is an incompetent fuck who wants more money and is saying what he is told to say to get it. I'm a Chargers fan, but the side of Mark Davis that I've come to see out of this whole endeavor has really made me consider becoming a Raider fan if they move.

Mark Davis just wants a stadium.

He really wishes he could get one in Oakland but neither nor Oakland can pay for that and that's why he partnered up with Spanos on the Carson proposal.

Spanos and Kroenke are the ones who actually want to go to LA.

Kroenke wants the second largest market to increase the value of his Rams, that's why nothing St. Louis does matters to him and he isn't afraid to burn that bridge.

Spanos considers LA his territory and doesn't want to lose it to another team, despite LA not really caring about the Chargers and that's why he wants to go to LA.

>After a long day of NFL committee meetings in New York Wednesday, it’s becoming clearer the side more likely to garner the 24 votes is the Chargers and Raiders Carson bid.

>For varying reasons.

>A significant group of owners empathize with Spanos’ long-time fight to secure a new stadium deal in San Diego, which has gone nowhere for more than 14 years. And for some owners, being able to solve the Chargers stadium situation and the Raiders dire stadium issues in Oakland with one single – and California – swoop has great appeal.

>Barring an outright win, the hand Kroenke will play is a negotiated outcome in which all three owners leave Houston satisfied with the end game. More specifically, the Rams bringing on either the Chargers or Raiders as a 50/50 equity partner in Inglewood, and some sort of consideration given to the third team to help them secure a new stadium somewhere.

>According to sources, the most likely end-game to that scenario is the Chargers and Rams teaming up in Inglewood.

>>64741167
Chicago used to have two teams. However, Chicago fans are fiercely loyal to the Bears, the same way they are to the Cubs, so a football version of the White Sox would likely also be put down in fucking Bridgeport and be summarily ignored by the entire city.

No not everybody

When raiders are good everyone in the bay area is a raider fan
when raiders are bad everyone is a niner fan , terry crews put it best
"It was the raiders that threaten my family but now I hear its them niner fans that are doing it"

Not calling raider fans fairweather because they are anything but , bay area has as many fairweather fans as SD and the only reason why the 49ers haven't moved outside of the bay area was because some silicon valley investors thought football would be a good investment so they financed a stadium that had more luxury boxes than almost all the stadiums out now.

Had they(those silicon valley people) never stepped in I promise you the 49ers would be known as the Sacramento 49ers

>>64741664
Also, I understand what you mean by white sox fans being from Chicago, because there are probably more out of state cubs fans than in state fans. There are also a lot of Cubs fans that are Packers fans, so they're fair weather faggots a lot of the time.

That said, the typical white sox fan is the exact kind of homer that you see rooting for the bears and bulls who inflate minor/above average players to godlike status like Deng, Hester, Paul Konerko, etc. I hate that I share the same fanbase as these terrible memers.

>>64741764

Reminder that 3/4ths (26) of the NFL's 32 owners have to approve any sort of relocation move, and Irsay was against the Inglewood plan BEFORE Kroenke proposed moving the combine to Los Angeles.

Only 9 owners need to disapprove of the plan for it to not happen, and we already know of one.

this is funny to be honest

Stan is pretty much telling the league "yeah this stadium will be able to host every fucking event possible and I will make sure of it"

I'm sure he is regretting that since irsay is pretty influential despite being a complete fuck up
>>
>>64741988
He wants to take the draft too, which will probably lose the votes of McCaskey, Mara/Tisch, and Johnson.

He's already pissed off potentially 4 of the 9 needed to block off his stadium.
>>
>>64742038
>He's already pissed off potentially 4 of the 9 needed to block off his stadium.

Supposedly, Kroenke has enough to block Spanos and vice versa.
>>
>>64742049
Which is why Kroenke is now shilling for Spanos to ditch Davis and come to Inglewood. Spanos has more pull in those meetings than Davis does, so stealing him could shift the veto votes to the Rams' side.
>>
>>64742085
But Davis has the most fan support, which is the most important consideration in all this.

Fans make the NFL, not the owners
>>
>>64742101
That may be true for many other NFL decisions, but for relocation all that matters is money and what the 32 owners think.

If 99% of the fans disapprove of sending the Patriots to buttfuck nowhere in Alaska but 28 of the 32 owners approve it, those niggas are moving.
>>
>>64742085
which wouldn't work

Spanos breaking off with mark would be seen as a despicable action even for the owners. It would also mean he loses his connections to bob iger who in turn has connections to practically every businessman in los angeles. Losing someone influential like that is not something you can just ignore.

Then how the fans would perceive it would be another thing , good or bad for any side who knows.

Spanos also grew up alongside davis , both their fathers knew each other very well and I believe the chargers are owned by the spanos family because Al davis helped them aquire it iirc.
>>
>>64742139
Could a bunch of owners gang up on another owner like this?

It can certainly happen but they have not picked what team(s) will be moving to the city.

LA can support 4 even 5 teams , the city and the area is that large but 3 honestly is the best

the problem is two of the three teams are sharing a staduim

If you could have the Raiders in long beach , Chargers in Santa Monica and squeeze the Ram in Anaheim then LA would never have a problem ever again

Oakland doesn't have the funds to do anything to keep the Raiders, their hands are tied. It's not like they're being defiant about the Raiders stadium situation, they have nothing to bring to the table.
>give a finger to the NFL when they ask for a plan

That's also not what happened either. Oakland just chose not to blow smoke up the NFL's ass when everyone knows they don't have anything to offer.

San Diego's plan relies on a vote that's unlikely to pass and St. Louis's plan is total bullshit and won't get the funds promised.
>>
>>64742990
So Oakland should be able to keep their team because they were honest? That's fucking retarded
>>
>>64743035
Yeah what makes Oakland more valuable than St. Louis or San Diego?
>>
>>64743035
Nobody deserves a football team and I didn't say Oakland should keep the team.

But if they do keep the team it'll be because Mark Davis has no other options.

The Rams should be the only team moving to LA but Spanos is going to force his way to LA because he's an idiot.

Mark Davis is just the smallest of the small fries and that's the reason the Raiders will end up staying in Oakland for the time being.

I would tend to agree with you on the cardinals reporting but this is relocation is a different beast

NFL is allowing reporters from BLEACHER REPORT to actually listen in the conversations

they are allowing people to just go in , tell others what they heard and run with it.

so far nobody has said anything extremely outragous like all three teams moving but the fact is
raiders-chargers looks like it is going through
raiders are seen as a bad idea all while a godsend due to their existing fanbase

Rams and Chargers is a wishful possibility but would also ruin NFL's relationship with STL

then you got STL coming out with their own report debunking stan's claim that STL is not viable for a team

so add

carson having more support
oakland being a viable and better market than SF being debunked
the whole 50+% of LA residents want rams when it was twitter poll renamed ESPN LA debunking

It just does not look good for stan

How many ways can you be wrong here? Where do you come to the conclusion when a radio host in st louis, a clearly biased guy who has been proven wrong time and time again. Case in point, his Eric grubman interview a few weeks ago in which grubman called him out on his emotional arguments. A good rule of thumb to follow is who has the money. Kroenke has it and by NFL standards, Davis and Spanos dont. Furthermore, Inglewood is shovel ready tomorrow, Carson's designs aren't even complete, and even when they are it would take upwards of a year to remediate the toxic waste dump in which the land sits. You're speculating on Carson getting more votes which doesn't matter if they can't get to 24, which they can't. Finally, there was no debunking of Kroenke's document at all. Sure, the mayor was upset, doesn't mean that STL is a viable region and his response lacked any real specifics about what Kroenke actually said, it just hurt his feelings. And also, you didn't even address the fact the CVC reneged on its original lease agreement in 1995. That's kind of a big deal.

>You're speculating on Carson getting more votes which doesn't matter if they can't get to 24, which they can't.
reporters are..reporting..that the carson plan is getting more steam as time goes on
Carson has big money backing , big name backing(bob iger and some other LA businessmen iirc) , and soon the most support by the league.
Stan burned bridges with the city of STL , and the league proclaiming to host a multitude of events with his new stadium which obviously wouldn't sit well, I would imagine ,with one of the members of the LA committee irsay.
> STL is a viable region and his response lacked any real specifics about what Kroenke actually said, it just hurt his feelings.
Just like how Oakland is not a viable market which stan did say is a market much more viable now than San Fransisco

>The information contained within the document, or Kroenke's decision to release of the document (which I believe is the one that shit's on SL) earlier this week upset some of the ownership and stacked the deck against himself.

>This would leave the Chargers to take the LA pie for themselves. The suggestion is that Iger would pay the $550 Million relocation fee for the Chargers, which would entitle him to a purchase of 51% ownership of the Chargers franchise.

>The assertion is that Owners aren't shutting the book on Kroenke, but want him to work with Iger. If the two can come to an agreement to work together, and Kroenke can pay Spanos to lose interest in LA, it'd be his for the taking.

>What matters most to the League right now however is that when this is all decided Bob Iger is a part of bringing the NFL back to LA.

but the league can vow whatever they want, its oakland that has refused to give any money to any of their sports teams and i just don't see davis spending his own 700million+ for a new stadium.

>>64749484
>the toxic waste dump in which the land sits

>>64754566
What if the league gives Davis the $400 gap to build the new stadium in Oakland?
>>
>>64754566
And I get that. But if they don't want the Raiders in LA, or continuing to try moving to LA, the simplest way to keep them in Oakland is to come up with G4 Fund shenanigans, dump whatever they need to in Oakland to get a new stadium built, make this the last "new" stadium built of this generation, and kick dealing the precedent of not demanding public contributions down the road for the future commissioner of the League and its ownership to deal with.

>>64754540
Al Davis sued the League into letting him move out of LA, and there are almost certainly going to be lawsuits that come out of this vote if someone doesn't wind up getting paid to stay where they are. With the Colts, I don't profess to have read up on it in detail, but I was under the impression that the only illicit facet of that move was the middle of the night exodus out of Baltimore that no one had expected. I don't it ever being spoken of as something forced or done against the League in a manner similar to that which Al Davis became notorious for.
>>
>>64754610
>>64754584
The league has never done that before and any reasonable person could see that they won't do that now
>>
>>64754763
Listen, I get that. If the League wants the Raiders to stay in Oakland though because more than anything they don't want them back in LA, the only other way I see them achieving that is forcing Davis to sell the team to someone wealthy enough to build their own stadium in Oakland, and that seems more unlikely to me than a one time exception to the rule of loaning more to the least wealthy owner in the League, and most tying strings to their doing so.
>>
>>64754806
If the league starts loaning owners and cities money to build new stadiums, you know that every city is going to start asking for that, right? It's such a dangerous precedent that it goes beyond all logic and could potentially kill the NFL
>>
>>64754861
thus why I said
>make this the last "new" stadium built of this generation, and kick dealing the precedent of not demanding public contributions down the road for the future commissioner of the League and its ownership to deal with.

The owners might be out of touch, but I think each of them has noticed the tide turning, and people no longer being willing to dump taxpayer dollars into an investment that only benefits them. I can see them accepting having gotten away with 31, and accepting the 32nd as a cost, and accepting that the way things have been will not be the way things will be in the future.
>>
>>64754861
and the cities will start ixnaying on the free money too.

"but the nfl gave davis $500 million dollars, why can't they give it to you?"
>>
>>64754806
the league only wants 1 team in LA for now.
if theres 2 teams they can't use LA as leverage against a new stadium for the other teams.
>>
>>64754889
>and the cities will start ixnaying on the free money too.
That's already started though...
>>
>>64754909
I disagree. Not only do you hear people already talking about teams moving to San Diego or St Louis if the Chargers or Rams move, but even Johnson and Mara said that if you are going to send two teams, send them together, because staggering them would be problematic. If a team goes to LA, the only other team that would be able to go and not be condemned to second fiddle status would be the Raiders, and I'd like to believe the owners know this.

There's not much the NFL can do if stan just decides to move the team. He can strong arm them.

The NFL as an entire organization is relatively week, they just project an image of strength.

Sure, they could take Stan to court, but they potentially could lose and it be a public shit show for them. Even if they win, it would be dragged out and they'd already be in L.A.
>>
>>64758902

>you're half right

The Dome has always been a craphole. It's a converted convention center ffs. The Rams still sold out every game their first decade in town. Only after constant losing and threats of relocation start to happen is when attendance waned. The team has made a profit every year so Kroenke is full of shit on his economic outlook and two-team city claim.

The new stadium plans look pretty sweet and they do have funding for it. Not sure what you're smoking there.

Chargers or Raiders moving makes sense because they are getting no support from their cities. Rams moving is only even talked about because their owner just wants to be in a better market. The NFL guidelines don't allow teams to move just because they feel like it, but Kronke is so rich that the other owners will probably just give him what he wants.

Sucks that a decent NFL market can do everything right and still have their team taken from them.

I live right next to Compton, and I can tell you that along with gang hostilities, just the difference in cultures is what drove blacks away.

It's easy to put together a plan when you're so desperate to keep your team that you make shit up.

Their funding plan counts on state money that they're never going to get and an extra $100 million from the NFL.
>>
>>64722243
The only reason LA had any teams is because owners thought it would be a great market for football. Turned out it wasn't
Ever wonder why all these teams applying for LA now moved from there in the first place? It's because Cali is mostly Mexicans and black people, your dominate sports are going to be baseball and basketball.
History might be repeating itself.

More and more people in LA are talking of the possibility of chargers and raiders .

I don't mind either and have no preference but I don't mind raiders moving here , gang violence died down a long time ago so I never got the "niggers and spics" prespective. Never seen a charger fan in my 24 years of living in LA but if they have a fanbase I guess it all too bad.

Ram fans should get some billionaire to buy their team
Someone that doesn't have a history with Georgia like Stan or Stan
