L.A. relocation seen as inevitable

#16

Quote:The LA threat has built, or upgraded a lot of stadiums on the tax payers dime.


The NFL has ratcheted up the ol LA threat time again as needed to bend the local tax payer/politician over the barrel for years.


The reason a team is not in LA today is because the NFL doesn't have a viable replacement to scare other NFL cities into ponying up the money to build a new stadium to keep "their" team.


So currently, the NFL is using LA to scare ... St. Louis, Oakland, and San Diego.


5 Years from now, it will be 3 different cities. This has been going on for a long long time. ... The NFL can't afford to lose the LA threat by actually placing a team in LA, it has made them too much money.


"We're going to do it"

"We're really not kidding this time"

"We have rich men buying land"

"This is your last chance"


Never heard those threats before.


Hey, did you guys hear? ... The Vikings are building a new stadium. A couple years back, they were in line to move to LA.


Eventually a team will move to LA. It won't be a threat anymore. Then London will take over as the new "threat" city.
