Doc Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 The time to sell is now. The new CBA is in-place for the next 10 years and small markets will be doing better. Come on, Chargers, Jags, Vikes, and Rams!
Mr. WEO Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 (edited) It will be Chargers. Rams a possibilty. Forget the rest. Where's the video of the ground breaking for this building? Edited July 25, 2011 by Mr. WEO
sweatpantsjoe Posted July 25, 2011 Posted July 25, 2011 Being in LA, you'd be surprised how many people here are still Rams fans. Yeah, there are a lot of Raiders fans, but theres probably about as many Rams fans too. There would be a lot of happy people if it is indeed the Rams that end up coming back to Los Angeles. I still say its the Chargers though, because their stadium is a dump.
bills1960 Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 (edited) I love watching a 30 second commercial for a 1:43 long video... anyway I think it's good thing for us not to be mentioned. Makes sense too, I've always said that our closeness to Toronto is actually a blessing; puts us in a good regional position. Edited July 26, 2011 by bills1960
Doc Posted July 26, 2011 Posted July 26, 2011 I still think that Al Davis will sue anyone that tries to put a team back in LA. But if he doesn't, my money is on the Jags and Rams. Although that would give Cali 5 teams.

aussiebills Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 i like to say that know news about us is good because normally it means we havent been absolutely smashed
High Mark Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 Are the Vikings building a brand new stadium? The Rams stadium cant be more than 15 years old in St. Louis. The Jags borrow a stadium that was built for college games, and have no fans. The Chargers are right down the road in a sh*tty stadium. Use your head NFL.
DaveinElma Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 If the Vikings move Minneapolis/ St Paul would probably get another team eventually.
Doc Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 Are the Vikings building a brand new stadium? Nope. No public money set aside for it. The Rams stadium cant be more than 15 years old in St. Louis. True, the stadium is only 15 years old. They can't move. The Jags borrow a stadium that was built for college games, and have no fans. The Chargers are right down the road in a sh*tty stadium. Use your head NFL. The thing is, they want people to sell them their NFL teams, not just relocate their teams there. Are guys like Weaver and the Spanos ready to sell?

Mr. WEO Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 Weaver a possibility, Spanos very unlikely. Other than repeatedly saying he's not moving his team anywhere, what gives you reason to believe he will sell?
Doc Posted August 7, 2011 Posted August 7, 2011 Other than repeatedly saying he's not moving his team anywhere, what gives you reason to believe he will sell? Why do you think he would publicly admit he's going to sell? To further reduce the already paltry number of fans the Jags get at games?
