The proposed stadium solutions in Oakland, St. Louis and San Diego are "unsatisfactory and inadequate" to keep the Raiders, Rams and Chargers in their home markets, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a report distributed Saturday to all 32 teams.
The contents of the 48-page report were disclosed to The Times by someone who has seen it but is not authorized to discuss it publicly.

Well, the Rams weren't staying in St. Louis anyway, so that one doesn't matter anyway.

Owners stealing taxpayer money by basically blackmailing to leave.

you think he's the one who made this decision ?Posted on 1/9/16 at 7:07 pm to castorinho
Obviously he isn't the only one, but I completely agree he is a douche.

So it's clear two teams are moving to LA. If all 3 are "unsatisfactory", where's the 3rd one go? Forced to stay?
And what happens if these teams move? Do they retain current team name, uniforms, marketing, etc? Or does it all get tweaked?

Then the NFL should pony up the cash to pay for the stadiums.

Why should the nfl pay? If cities are dumb enough to keep using taxpayer money to build stadiums why not let them and save your business millions?
I dont support public funds for stadiums but i also dont blame the nfl for taking advantage of it

Goodell is just the face of the owners. He takes the heat so they don't have to.

They're not unsatisfactory they're trying to make someone pony up more money or see if a city will give more tax breaks.

It is no different than corporations receiving tax incentives to stay/come to their state. It happens everyday. Jobs and NFL teams bring a lot to the table.

I'd assume if 2 teams go to LA it would have to be 1 NFC and 1 AFC team. That means out of those 3 the Rams would definitely be one of them.

Why wouldn't they? It's not like these teams haven't played in LA before.

I hope San Diego doesn't move. Their fans are pretty loyal, and their city doesn't suck.

So what happens to the 3rd team left out?
And where will the teams move when the have horrible fan turn out?
What is goin to be the new threat for teams that want a new stadium and the city will nit bend to their will?
