MechaFrogzilla posted:Nah. Has to be the home Raiders game, right? All the awkwardness of a cancelled wedding between two runaways. I liken that game to more of a post breakup hatefucking. It should be fun at least for one side. The Jaguars game looks to be simply depressing no matter who wins.

The Raiders have started their next round of ransom negotiations already http://www.reviewjournal.com/busine...ery=/A3ZJnXt3fr quote:Mark Davis, owner of the Oakland Raiders, is scheduled to meet with Las Vegas Sands Chairman and CEO Sheldon Adelson on Friday, possibly to discuss stadium details. A potential move by the Raiders to Los Angeles earlier this month was rejected by the NFL. Abboud said Las Vegas Sands has had conversations with officials from other NFL teams as well.

kiimo posted:Well one notable difference is that getting free agents to come to LA is a lot easier than St. Louis. I'm not bagging on St. Louis anymore than my own hometown. Like when the Chiefs tried to get Peyton Manning to visit and he practically laughed at them as he flew over KC on the way to Denver. Stuff like this doesn't matter. Most NFL players do not even live in the state that they play.

A better answer would be that Vegas is as much a transplant city as San Diego or Florida cities and wouldn't have a lot of support since everyone who lives there already roots for someone else

Any NFL team in Vegas would probably sell out every time, too, and the TV market could easily include LA.

zen death robot posted:Then again I'm not the owner of a team that is currently playing in a stadium that gets sewage backed up into it, so lots of things probably sound better than that. Which is why the Raiders are honestly just waiting to see what the Chargers do. If they move, San Diego has an NFL ready stadium and training facility that the Raiders can move into tomorrow. Plus a sizable raiders fanbase both here and a couple of hours up the road in LA. There are gonna be three teams in Southern California in 2017. It'll either be the LA Rams/Chargers and San Diego Raiders, or the LA Rams/Raiders and San Diego Chargers.

Al probably doesn't have a real phylactery. He strikes me as more of a body possessing type of spirit. Mark is probably just an unwilling pawn in a grander and darker scheme.

The phylactery is under the 50 yard line of the Coliseum. That's why the Raiders can't move. Someone might disturb it and release the vengeful spirit of Al.

I'd take it one step further, Al Davis has a series of Horcruxes. At least one of them is a Raiders Lombardi trophy, another is a bottle of stick'um once given to Biletnikoff.
