Special Owners Meeting for a vote on Los Angeles
|
Quote:D6, Thanks, Teal Curtain. My guess is a heavy emphasis is going to be put on public transportation for the winning site even if there's ample parking.

The reports in recent weeks that the Carson site had the majority of votes. 2. The LA Committee recommended the Carson site 5-1 earlier today. Quote:Of course 'LAX traffic" means visiting fans have a shorter route to the stadium.lol no one cares Quote:It's going to be real interesting to see what Kroencke does if they vote down his Inglewood proposal. Could we have another Al Davis to LA situation?Nuclear option if Kroenke doesn't get his team and his stadium in LA, imo. Quote: At least for me, this is surprising on two fronts:Fear of the Stantomic Bomb is in play here, I think. Quote: This could well be a major factor. Jason Cole mentioned that the first vote was a secret ballot, which also probably contributed to the Inglewood project getting many more votes than expected: https://twitter.com/JasonColeBR/status/6...6045371392
Quote:Why not move the Seahawks back? They were once in the old AFC west, so they have history against those teams. Huge rivalry with the 49ers. Those two teams have hated each other to the max since realignment. You can't say that about the Seahawks vs. any AFC West team before 2002. We show less advertisements to registered users.

Rams and chargers make best plan for nfl.
The chargers and raiders both said they have no problem with being moved to a new division, but what about the other owners? They might vote for rams/chargers so they aren't forced to move. Quote: This could well be a major factor. Very interesting. Could also mean that owners believe the Inglewood proposal is the stronger of the two, but are hesitant to come out publicly in favor of it due to Kroencke's scorched earth policy in St. Louis.
Quote: At least for me, this is surprising on two fronts: Not a majority, just more votes than the others. They still don't have 24 votes for it.
Quote:Rams and Chargers make best plan for NFL. This reminds me of the 2002 realignment. FWIW the backup plan if Seattle did not want to switch conferences was moving San Diego to the NFC West.

Does anybody think the owners will get 24 votes tonight? Ian Rapoport tweeted it is possible, but I don't think so.
Quote: This, combined with many owners not wanting outwardly to betray Chargers owner Dean Spanos.Spanos' long-term suffering in a crappy stadium in San Diego, and his steadfast loyalty to the league while trying to get it sorted out rather than just moving his team on his own, has earned him a spot in LA. Rams or Raiders along with him is the question. Has anyone bothered to figure out where the LA teams will play in 2016? Quote:Spanos' long-term suffering in a crappy stadium in San Diego, and his steadfast loyalty to the league while trying to get it sorted out rather than just moving his team on his own, has earned him a spot in LA. Rams or Raiders along with him is the question. All the reports now have the Rams as the team moving to LA, with the Inglewood site being approved. It's possible Dean Spanos will have an option to move to LA in 2016, 2017, or 2018. The LA Coliseum will very likely be the site of one team. My guess, the Rams, barring something unexpected at this time. I have no idea what the other site will be. The Rose Bowl isn't in play. We show less advertisements to registered users.

I think this will be over before the night is over.
Quote:Spanos' long-term suffering in a crappy stadium in San Diego, and his steadfast loyalty to the league while trying to get it sorted out rather than just moving his team on his own, has earned him a spot in LA. Rams or Raiders along with him is the question. As I stated before, it would be stupid to move both the Raiders and Chargers because they want the same stadium. Nothing I read indicates one team will switch conferences to make this a logical solution. Dean Spanos made it clear he does not want to work with Stan Kroenke, which was suggested because the Chargers and Rams are in different conferences. Obviously that means both the Raiders and Chargers want to stay in the AFC West. One thing I don't understand is the NFL not talking about where the chosen team will play while a new stadium is built. Why not make that team stay in its current stadium until 2018, when the new stadium will be ready to open? This should be a consideration but there have been no reports about college stadium options.

I'll gladly provide more Twitter Feeds of NFL media members if you would like that have similar information. https://twitter.com/jasoncolebr The Rams played in the Coliseum from 1946 to 1979. Being that it's now 2016, I don't think the fact that the Rams left the Coliseum in 1980 would prevent them from securing a lease at the Coliseum.
