I wouldnt rejoice just yet..... san antonio isnt out of the question.

My ideal situation, would be that "waterfront" stadium for the A's, warriors bounce across the bay, oracle arena demolished, and new stadium built for the raiders in the same location.

If only wishful thinking got shit done

Now if I put my self in mark davis's shoes.

I sell part of the team. I get it in the contract that I get to still call my self the owner, and move to where the new party wants. If they want to build in oakland and the city plays ball, great. If not, great. now wheres my money?

why weren't the raiders approved to move back to l.a. if they played there before?
Because owners were blown away by the differences in proposals. They compared it to a 70s home movie against star wars....


Im sure u can guess whos was like a 70s home movie lol

The Raiders don't have the money to move to LA. That's why the owners don't want them there. Carol and Mark Davis only own like 45% of the Raiders to begin with and they have zero money outside of the percentage in their team.

They were relying 100% on getting a stadium with another team and other people paying for everything, even their relocation fees lol

I don't even see how the Raiders were an option to begin with considering the 500 million relocation fee.

Mark can't afford the 550m relocation fee. And selling right now is not smart business with the team on upward swing, the value isn't there at the moment than if the team was winning and contending. Doubt San Antonio happens
