You showed the Rams too.



It's not just L.A. It's the NFL in L.A. (and it's also just the NFL) It's crappy stadium too.

But USC/Stanford compared to the NFL:



L.A. might be the only major metro city in America that is a college town.

Mark Cuban was right; the NFL has forced football down our throats...and the quality of play, especially from the marquee position, has been horrible the past few years.

They give us a shitty product, on a constant news cycle, and couple that with incompetent leadership and corrupt controversies. Its not surprising that the fans have bucked back at this crap they give us.

I was so thrilled when Oakland decided not to give the Raiders that corporate welfare queen handout for the stadium. Investing in a football team is horrible decisions right now

And the NFL still has more fans, makes more money, gets better ratings for all games even over the top college match up, and let this sink in, college football is a minor sport compared to the NFL and always will be. Cleveland could
Be playing the bills on national tv ag the same time as if both undefeated Alabama and LSU were playing at the same time and the 1 vs 2 college games would get destroyed in the head to head ratings,

LA is far from a college over pro sports town

it's not a college town, its a lakers/dodgers town. we're also the #1 frontrunners town, so when USC football or UCLA basketball are good, they draw also.

the rams sucked last year, and they were boring. that's why the coliseum was empty yesterday. if the team starts winning, the fans will show up again.

the coliseum was filled on saturday because USC football is trending way up.

edit- LA is unique from other major metro's in that we have not just one, but 2 big time college programs. NYC and Chicago have zero. So we while we aren't a college town, we definitely enjoy college sports more than almost any other big city.
