I said casual fans, don't overreact.

Agree, in 20 years the 49ers will own the bay area completely, there won't be any Raiders fans in the area under 30 years old.

if a 2nd team tries to move into the area they will just share the 49ers stadium, which is what the Raiders should have done if they wanted to stay.

Now having only 3 NFL teams in the state of California seems like a big void. Granted the raiders in Las Vegas will pull interest from CA. I guess MLS can try to fill the void with 5 teams if they expand to San Diego and Sacramento. As for another NFL team moving in, it's probably gonna be a long time before San Diego offers anything so your looking at team 2 in the Bay Area Or maybe even Sacramento. Yet, there really aren't any teams looking to move now.

I wonder if the Raiders would consider playing in Los Angeles in 2019?

Here's the owner of the Vegas NHL team, who paid the expansion fee out of his pocket and will be playing in a privately funded arena, saying something I said a few months ago...

BleacherReport Wrote:"I felt like there were a lot better ways to spend $750 million than bringing the Raiders to Las Vegas," Foley said on Vegas Hockey Hotline. "We could spend it on police, firefighters and teachers and have them all be the best in the country. But I guess we're going to spend it on the Raiders."

The officials in Broakland want the Raiders out now so they now have to explore temporary facilities for the next two years

$6.7B spend on public use facilities. Music to my ears!

Just saw the other day how much better the Minnesota high school football championships did in US Bank this year, not having to pay for operating costs. That was built into the deal for public financing of USB Stadium ... because it is a public facility, owned by the public, for public use! 03-idea

RE: Raiders to Las Vegas--it's official.
Well, stadium is well under construction. UNLV will share as well and now there rumbling about wanting MLS to play in the stadium with a new team.

Quote:A hedge fund manager from Boston might not be the only billionaire interested in bringing a Major League Soccer expansion franchise to Las Vegas.

Two independent sources confirmed to the Review-Journal on Tuesday night that Golden Knights owner Bill Foley has engaged in discussions the past several months to land an MLS team that would play in the new Raiders stadium.

Foley could not be reached for comment, but Raiders owner Mark Davis did not discount the idea of the team’s 65,000-seat domed stadium, set to open in 2020, being home to the MLS.

“We have 365 days a year to fill in the stadium,” Davis said. “We will hopefully be using it for eight (regular-season) dates plus all our playoff games. So that leaves around 353, and then there is (UNLV football).

“Major League Soccer and other events would be at the top off our list to help fill those remaining dates. We are open to listening to anything. We owe that to ourselves and the community.”

When asked if the Raiders and Foley had engaged in talks about an MLS franchise playing in the stadium, Davis said: “I’d prefer not to speak about anyone who has approached us.”

A third source told the Review-Journal that Foley could potentially partner with another party — not the Raiders — on the MLS deal.
