I have lived in Houston, Bay Area and now Portland.

Portland is the best place and the public transit is loving outstanding. Not having to drive a car to work downtown is a liberating feeling.

Am I the only one who wants the Raiders to stay in Oakland? (ideally not in o.co obviously :nexus:)

If the Raiders leave all us Bay Area folk have to look forward to is Chip Kelly's lip action

While at the super bowl last weekend, most raider fans seemed very optimistic about the Raiders staying in Oakland and a new stadium being built for both them and the As. Maybe it is blind faith but a common conversation topic and sentiment

They still do combination baseball/football stadiums?

No the dream is two new stadiums, but what's actually going to happen is that the Coliseum will get renovated and used for baseball only, and the Raiders will get told to take a hike.

I found having to wait for a subway train to come and then sit on it in a tunnel while they repeatedly tell me the delay is "momentary" to be the opposite of liberating.

I like driving to work because my job is literally never in the same place from day to day.

I loving hate going to body shops to write estimates but my freedom of movement is so goddamn liberating.

Plus I don't have to go into the office and listen to dumb office bullshit unless I need their speedy Internet connection.

Never did that but I was doing an inspection in East Palo Alto and I heard gunshots like three houses down. I noped the gently caress outta there pretty goddamn fast. The same day a bored housewife in Los Altos Hills scolded me for running my car for too long.

Our Oakland adjusters regularly get carjacked, like one a year. I mean if you leave your car unlocked and running with you sitting in the passenger seat, what the gently caress else do you think is going to happen?

Car running to run the generator to power the laptop. Then most insurance adjusters are fat as hell so good luck sitting in your driver seat to work on your laptop.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
My dad filled fire extinguishers mainly in the Ontario/Montclair/Pomona area but every once in a while he went on a job that required us (since he'd often take me to these since I've always been a night person) being in the heart of LA at midnight. We never had any crime done towards us, but we saw some crazy poo poo.

Cutty approves.
What are the current odds for Raiders:
1) Getting a new arena in Oakland/San Jose?
2) Going to Vegas?
3) Going to San Antonio?
4) Going somewhere new, like Portland or Vancouver?

LA would be the most preferable for them I think. Then maybe San Antonio/Vegas/Whatever they can get a great deal with. Then maybe a Hail Mary for SD/St Louis.

The raiders are either cohabbing with the rams, although I'm not really sure how Davis affords the relocation fee, or they stay in their busted old stadium (most likely). Proud of the city of Oakland for standing up to the NFL

Davis pays the relocation fee probably in annual payments. I mean, each NFL owner gets a check for like 200 million dollars a year just for TV contracts and stuff

That stadium is practically on the verge of being condemned and the Raiders will never sign anything longer than a 1 year lease there. Also there's no way in hell they go to San Diego with two teams in LA. As far as relocation fees, they got a $100 million bonus for being the losers of the LA deal, and they could possibly get the relocation fee waived to move somewhere where there isn't competition since no one can argue they haven't tried to get a deal done in Oakland. The owners really don't want them in LA though.

That $100 million was an award for staying where they are to help finance a new stadium, not 'here's $100 million ya loser gl next time'.

The stadium sucks but its not about to be condemned you're happily parroting Owner Bullshit

It's the same reason the Packers and Bills own for being so far north, yet still playing in open stadiums. :black101:

Cardinals, make your new stadium open too. Play through the heatstroke. Join the hardcore.

Yes, if by some miracle the Chargers run out the clock without committing then the Raiders would probably go to LA.
