California would be much improved if we expanded pendleton to include everything between say orange county and la jolla. Live fire authorized and encouraged. I've always wanted to see what mortars would do to mcmansions.

I don't know about mlb, but nfl profit shares ticket revenue on regular seats but not luxury boxes. So it's in the owners interest to build these monstrosities . Why the niners moved to santa clara is the same reason the Warriors want to move from the completely adequate oracle arena across the bay to san francisco. They want to be where the rich people are. Really the only reason the pleb seats are there at all is you need sell out to get that sweet sweet tv revenue. New stadiums aren't for you, they're for rich people. Let the rich people pay for them.

Rams move to LA. The league says one team is enough. Oakland continues on a series of one year deals at the coliseum until the A's leave to their new stadium at jack London square. The coliseum falls to pieces but the raiders keep playing there and rename it the thunderdome.

Volkerball posted:You're a hell of a lot closer to a deal in San Diego than the raiders are in Oakland. If the raiders can't move to LA, they're absolutely hosed. Absolute worst case is that the owners gang up on mark davis and oust him from ownership, or at least management. The league takes control and they move the team to some pliant city willing to build a stadium like san antonio.

Volkerball posted:I'd love for the team to stay in the Davis family, and Mark has done a good job of staying in his lane, but we're loving broke dude. Al Davis was amazing and Mark is far better than his haircut might let anyone think but... Ownership of teams is way too big for it to be a thing passed down in families like some lordship. There's just too much money at stake for ownership to fall to some bad apple. I really wish the league would open up ownership rules so more teams could be publicly owned like the Packers, or at least more widely held to allow some form of board governance like companies ought to have.

Magic Johnson seems like a candidate. I wonder how that's all going to shake out. AL (pbuh), didn't own a majority stake iirc. He took control with some boardroom shenanigans. If a chunk is sold off, I wonder if the controlling relationship would change.
