Kevin Greene

Thursday he had signed a bill allowing the construction of a 75,000-seat stadium that developers hope will lure an NFL team back to the Los Angeles area.

there are the team that could go there

Majestic has targeted seven teams as candidates to move to the Los Angeles area: the Buffalo Bills, Jacksonville Jaguars, Minnesota Vikings, St. Louis Rams, San Diego Chargers, Oakland Raiders and San Francisco 49ers.

The only teams I can picture moving out there would be the LA Jaguars or LA Rams!The vikings moving to LA hhhmmmm,the LA Vikings....Yeah right :rolleyes:!

Come to think of it,screw LA,they have 2 baseball teams,2 basketball teams,a hockey team and anyway people in LA are too busy fighting in traffic,drive by gang shooting,being obsessed w/celebrities,surfing,doing coke and meth,signing up to be pornstars,going to the mall,.....etc etc.....!;)

That's 2 hockey teams. Kings, Ducks.

Neg rep.

I could have sworn that a new stadium was approved for the Vikings. Guess they are still working on it.

Didn't realize the Vikings lease is up in 2011......

The Vikings, who's lease runs out on the Metrodome in 2011, want a new stadium.

California lawmakers could be paving the way with a new crown jewel of the NFL, a new privately funded stadium outside of Los Angeles.

The next step finding a team to move in. The Vikings are one of 7 teams the developer is hoping to lure in.

The Vikings have already proposed at a new $800,000,000 stadium on the site of the Metrodome. However, having taxpayers foot the bill is low on the priority list at the State Capitol.

"When schools are laying off teachers we can't fund the roads, we got all these other problems, massive budget deficit, the last thing in most peoples mind is we ought to invest money in a very profitable business," said DFL Sen. John Marty.

The Vikings have said they're not interested in renewing it's lease with the Metrodome. In a statement they said, "we are focused on solving our issue in Minnesota. Trying to generate discussions at the capitol have been difficult."

Why does anyone think LA is such an attractive location for a team? They've had TWO storied franchises in their history (the Rams and Raiders) and couldn't keep either one of them! At some point, teams are going to have to arrive at the conclusion that they are stuck where they are, and make the most of it. No NFL team has folded in my lifetime, but that may be the way a team goes as the number of potential locations for them to move to decreases! Think about it, how many towns are left that can truly support an NFL team? Portland, OR? They have the NBA there, after all! Oklahoma City? San Antonio? Well, SA was rumored to be a site for the Vikings a few years back! Lincoln, Nebraska?

Of course, Honolulu may be one of the few attractive options left. But what's left? Foreign countries?

    • I think the same thing, they don’t have any better options especially since Christiansen is out for the year 
    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
