I know the majority of you do not care for Los Angeles or football in Los Angeles, however for those that would like to stay in the loop, I am creating this thread for the sake of detailing the progress of a move back to Los Angeles. 

 

While the return to LA has been decades in the making, I believe that their is finally some legs to the latest round of proposals and the LA market will get a team in the next 1-2 years.

 

Any team that moves to Los Angeles would temporarily play at the Rose Bowl or the Coliseum. 

 

You can read the EIR for the Rose Bowl here

 

----

Updates:

 

October 20, 2014 - Mike Florio regards the Rams as the move likely to move to Los Angeles

October 21, 2014 - The NFL begins a market survey in Los Angeles to gauge interest 

-----

 

If the Rams do move to Los Angeles, the most likely location will be in Hollywood Park in Inglewood next to the Great Western Forum

The second most likely scenario would be at Farmer's Field in downtown Los Angeles next to the Staples Center

The third possible site is Los Angeles Stadium in the outskirts of Los Angeles in the City of Industry:

Rumors:

 

- Dodgers Stadium moving to Downtown Los Angeles and moving Farmer's Field to Chavez Ravine (Not going to happen)

- A New stadium in Carson, CA next to the Stubhub Center (Not going to happen)

Oakland and their fans can stay where they are.

 

SoCal does not want the stinking Raiders.

 

First thing that has to happen for football to return to Los Angeles is an Owner to step up willing to build the first Pro Football stadium Los Angeles (Yes. LA has never had a Pro Football stadium) has ever had with his own money. California is overtaxed and overrun with Undocumented Aliens and their is simply zero tax dollars for football.

 

Until this happens it's essentially blackmail by the NFL to get a stadium built in another city currently housing a team with a sub par Stadium. So far this strategy has worked quite well.

I live right by the Rose Bowl.  I would prefer the Rams or Jaguars because Raider fans are really hard to be around personally.  Panthers will always be my team but it'd be nice to be able to go to a game without driving to SD.

The Thug gang mentality in LA that is Raider Nation in SoCal makes the Raiders unsavory to any corporate investment I would think.

Don't know if they still do it but the Raider fan and the fights etc was so bad when Oakland came to San Diego to play the Chargers they would not sell Raider game tickets as singles. You could only buy Raider tickets as a non Season Ticket holder if you bought a group of games.

Anything they could do to keep the Raider fan out of the stadium.

Most local Sports bars will not show Raider games here in Ventura as the problems with the fans out weighs the money Raider fan would spend in their establishments.

 It's that bad.

 

Virtually any other Franchise would thrive in LA with a proper stadium, although I would prefer expansion. I don't want any city losing their team.

I would like to make it into the stadium alive and out in one piece. I would like to bring my kids to a game. I would like to tailgate without having the bangers asking me where I'm from. I'll pass on the Raiders 200%

      Do You Agree With These Excuses?

      By Saca312 · Posted

      Extrapolate that with every QB for that matter. I guarantee you there's quite a bit of missed opportunities and yards left on the field for everyone. Many NFL QBs deal with WRs not putting in A+ effort, subpar o-line play and other deficiencies. The great ones are able to rise above these issues and create opportunities for plays. Guys like Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes can both play in and out of structure, as well as find ways to get yards when things break down and mask mistakes by throwing guys open, creating opportunities from nothing, etc. Bryce Young has only shown he's able to make things happen when the rest of the team picks up his slack. Very rarely does he create those opportunities himself. When this is a consistent pattern year after year with Bryce where he shows up lackluster, it's a concern. This is year three and he should be elevating the team as a first overall pick this franchise traded up for.  He was far from elevating anyone against JAX. In fact, he needed others to elevate and create for him. Excuses may be fine for a rookie, but this is year three for the first overall pick. Not looking good so far.

      I think the worst issue is coaching. Countless bad snaps, XL not getting his feet in or trying on runs plays, our centre being down field when he didn't need to be. All seem to be from poor coaching for me. I believe Canales is to soft to rip the players a new one when the fug up. Plus I honestly believe that Canales is slow getting his plays in giving Bryce less time to diagnose and adjust to the defence. Don't worry I could of head butted Bryce for that fumble and the 4th down throw aways but the other plays are explainable to me
