Would the league step in and try to control the LA market if both the Rams plan and the Chargers/Raiders shared stadium seem like they're coming together? Do they even mind?

It seems like the Rams are the closest to actually moving but Oakland is also without any real traction on getting a stadium, but it just seems a little nuts that the league would be fine with two (and maybe three) owners just showing up in the same city in a year or two.

Considering how the NFL fought tooth and nail against Davis the first time this happened and that the pattern in other leagues is for the commissioner to do whatever backroom poo poo needs to happen to extract a stadium deal out of a city (unless you're helping your buddy move his new team to Oklahoma I guess), it just seems completely out of left field for Goodell to be totally fine with trying to transplant three different franchises to a new city nearly simultaneously.
