My question is: if a NFL team moves to L.A., what will the NFL use to scare and manipulate cities and states into building new stadiums? They've gotten a lot of mileage by teams threatening to move to L.A. if they weren't given a new or renovated stadium at taxpayer expense.

1. They will always use Mexico, Europe, or Canada
2. Most of the new stadiums that were built were built to replace old multi-purpose stadiums and stadiums that were built for cheap and could not be enlarged or renovated to accomodate premium seats and luxury boxes. I doubt you see the new stadiums being replaced at 25 and 30 years like the old ones were.

St. Louis, Jacksonville, San Diego, Oakland and San Antonio can always threaten to build a stadium and take a team.
