Augie Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 I've been to some games in Jacksonville. Pathetic. Mostly Bills fans and brutally hot. They'd be worth soooo much more in LA, but they'd have to win some games. LA has had their shots and there's a reason they have no team now.
MarkyMannn Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 Or San Diego as some sort of twisted revenge for SD taking the Buffalo Braves
PromoTheRobot Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 Or San Diego as some sort of twisted revenge for SD taking the Buffalo Braves The Chargers were founded in L.A. back in 1960.
sodbuster Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 It is nice that the Bills name is out of the mix. However, no fan should suffer the pain of having their team moved. I hope they move the Patriots.
gpodpdx Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 I was in LA for a few years until about nine months ago, and on Sundays, you wouldn't even know it's Football Sunday. There's just so much more going on that it's not the only game in town like many NFL cities. LA can do without a team.
Augie Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 LA can do without a team. They have a track record and have proven that repeatedly.
ExiledInIllinois Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 The Chargers were founded in L.A. back in 1960. And the Rams were stolen out of Cleveland. Boy they all got their hand in the cookie jar.
26CornerBlitz Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 @NFLonCBS Football at Dodger Stadium? It could happen if the NFL returns to LA. http://cbsprt.co/1pOcuVO
Dragonborn10 Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 Oakland should be forced to share stadium with the 49ers. It would be insane to ask Oakland taxpayers to build another stadium when they could easily use the one next door.
TheFunPolice Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 Raiders make all the sense in the world.... Still, it seems like this story comes up every couple of years. I wonder if it's for real this time. If the Rams go up for sale I could see Toronto going for them.
Wacka Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 The Raiders tarp off Mt. Davis and the A's tar off the upper deck. Went to the last Nills game in Oak,and and us fans with Pinto Ken were the only people in our section .
Mark Vader Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 Oakland should be forced to share stadium with the 49ers. It would be insane to ask Oakland taxpayers to build another stadium when they could easily use the one next door. I agree with this. @NFLonCBS Football at Dodger Stadium? It could happen if the NFL returns to LA. http://cbsprt.co/1pOcuVO LOL, Dodger Stadium? Boy, Goodell and the NFL must really be desperate. And I see Goodell is still pushing for a team in London.
Kelly the Dog Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 LOL, Dodger Stadium? Boy, Goodell and the NFL must really be desperate. And I see Goodell is still pushing for a team in London. Not sure how a football configuration would work in Dodger stadium. Probably not great. But Dodger Stadium is one of the coolest stadiums anywhere. Truly iconic and a great experience. The Coliseum and the Rose Bowl are places in LA that suck.
BillsBMore Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 The NFL is great at keeping its name in the news. The LA rumors have surfaced every year for the past 20 years since a team last played in LA. They are a hype machine and this keeps them in the news.
Nanker Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 If the League's schedule ever gets expanded to 18 games they could have 2 games every weekend in LA by rotating every franchise in their twice - once as a "home" team, once as a "visitor". They could make it more interesting by making those matchups neutral site inter-divisional rivalry games. e.g., The Bills host the Cheaters, and visit the JESTS in a rubber match, then the following year they rotate around the division, say by picking up the Fins and dropping Kraft's boys. etc., etc., etc. Never happen though.
IDBillzFan Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 I can't imagine any team working in L.A. other than the Raiders. The Rams...maybe. But they'd probably do better in Orange County, and OC is to LA like Santa Clara is to San Francisco.
Captain Hindsight Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 Raiders make all the sense in the world.... Still, it seems like this story comes up every couple of years. I wonder if it's for real this time. If the Rams go up for sale I could see Toronto going for them. I doubt the NFL would allow it. Bon Jovi might want to buy it but he aint moving to the Bills backyard
gpodpdx Posted October 8, 2014 Posted October 8, 2014 I was in LA for a few years until about nne months ago. You wouldn't even know it was a "Football Sunday." There is just so much more going on in LA, unlike many NFL cities, where a game on Sunday is the only thing going on in town. I don't think many people in LA have missed the NFL.
