If I remember correctly, Stan, Jones and Davis had a meeting together with someone from LV or the topic was LV. This was like a year ago. Right?

That's part of his motivation, but his company is going to make a lot of money off the new Las Vegas and Inglewood stadiums.

Well it's clear and there is no doubt that any local fan contribution is not appreciated or a consideration in the equation with the owners when it comes to relo.
Seems odd considering it's the fans who generate the revenue in the process.

Also, Spanos and Kroenke were seen on the sidelines of a San Diego / Rams game a couple years back and were yacking it up.

One could wonder if this wasn't the plan all along. :idea: :?:

That's the danger the NFL runs in chasing the fast buck of public money handouts. At what point do teams moving effect the bottom line because fans know teams have no loyalty to them?
