Toilet Mouth posted:It doesn't have a greater than 50% chance of happening, but doesn't San Diego staying put and the Raiders going to LA seem like a plausible outcome? Yes, if by some miracle the Chargers run out the clock without committing then the Raiders would probably go to LA.

v2vian man posted:the chargers got 12 months just to see if some dumbass city councilperson panics and comes running in with billions in public money Pretty much. Also Spanos would prefer not being a junior partner. I don't think Davis really cares one way or the other because they're the loving Raiders in Los Angeles.

Volkerball posted:The Raiders have no reason to bluff now, so this increasing chatter with Las Vegas is interesting. Normally I'd say he'd have to be insane to not go to LA if possible, but Vegas might be the exception.

I love how this has gone from "Vegas is maybe a pipe dream" to "oh wow this might actually happen" in just like 4 months. Also I'd definitely head to Vegas for at least one game.

Christ Pseudoscientist posted:As someone that knows nothing about Vegas' public transportation would it be viable to have the monorail go to the proposed stadium site or would that be insane/impossible? I dunno, but this does remind me there's a plan to build a train from Vegas to LA. I think they might be building it now.

We used to play the "spot all the license plates" game when I was a kid since there was nothing else to do when driving from idaho to the oregon coast. We saw all of the states except Delaware, because those fuckers must never get out.
