The L.A. Rams. Huh. How about that. So, three seasons in the Coliseum, followed by a move to the old Hollywood Park. Is there any transit heading that way? I know LA has been expanding its light rail. I'm skeptical about two teams though, especially if the second is at a significant financial disadvantage. LA doesn't seem to care enough, although the city is so huge that the money may make sense regardless. Any sense of how many fans in San Diego the Chargers would hold onto if they move north? I have to imagine it's a greater percentage than the Rams will retain in St Louis, even without the way the Rams blew the bridges behind them.

If you wanna pack the LA Coliseum just have Kobe join the Rams and then announce he's retiring.

There are 18 million people in the greater Los Angeles combined statistical area.

Davis would be smart as hell to take the hush money from Kronke than turn around and take the sweet public funding from STL and move the Raiders. Give the Chiefs a close by division rival.

How much money do teams make from people actually coming to games compared to what they make from TV (which is split equally right?)? Or is it more about merch and brand value?

Most people I know here (in LA metro area) are from some eastern or midwestern place and already root for a team from where they are from. So they'll go to games when their team plays the LA team, at least!

There was some general fund for 40% of ticket sales and the like, but sponsorship and advertising isn't shared.

Book it. That I don't doubt. But two teams? I feel like there's going to be an odd man out here, and it seems like it's going to be the Chargers. Who knows, though? Winning seems to solve pretty much everything.

The Raiders will now turn our attention to exploring all options to find a permanent stadium solution. We thank fans throughout the Raider Nation for their unrivaled passion and support. aka
