And by "partner," #Raiders owner Mark Davis meant another part-owner to assuage fears of other team owners about ability to succeed in LA

Rumor is Mark Davis is selling 49% of his stake 2 a Wealthy LA executive investor, has been told officially 2 NFL but not public


Would all but guarantee an LA move I'd imagine.

Not with the St Louis stadium coming to fruition.

Raiders and Chargers in Carson.
Rams in St Louis.

Chargers to NFC West.
Rams to AFC West.

Rams have no say in realignment as part of the agreement to move to St Louis.

I'm fairly confident that St. Louis will end up with a team either way.

Just not sure it will be the Rams.

Did you see the comment by Shad Khan, JAgs owner, that there might be a "plan C'

Jags are without question in the worst market in the NFL and it really isnt close.

I wouldnt put a dollar on the outcome at this point.

Raiders and Chargers have the most natural fans in LA. Since they're both candidates I think they make the most sense. The Rams have won a Super Bowl in St. Louis and I think would do well with a new stadium

I saw a few mention Mark Cuban, but have no clue, imagine that was just for shits and gigs.

yeah, Kroenke has made it very hard for people to get behind any team he owns in St.LOuis

this is a tard who forced Shad Khan out at the last minute, Shad would of kept them in St.Louis, no doubt.
He has been part and a huge part of the worst org in the NFL. Historically bad, and it's all on him.


No team he owns, has fans who are happy with his ownership. Arsenal fans call him a liar, Avs fans r not happy, nuggets fans not exactly thrilled with him,errrrr his son.

I disagree. The Rams were here for 50 years. They still have a big following in L.A. I haven't personally met anyone (strictly anecdotal, I know) who wants the Chargers and Raiders to come here. Heavy sentiment from what I've seen is for the Rams to return.

Well the local fox affiliate doesnt even show the Rams games in LA but you can find the Raiders and Chargers all over the air.

Ya I'm going off only my time living there. It seemed I knew mostly primarily Raiders and Chargers fans. Then again it could have been a generational bias thing. I'm sure some older folks who grew up with the Rams may have that view. Most younger people seemed to be Raiders/Chargers in my experience

Works for me.

Supposedly (per the LA Times) there are enough owners to block the Rams from moving here however. Not sure if they're coming back or not.

Yeah, supposedly Spanos "definitely" has enough owners votes to block Kroenke.
