Jeeze - that flat dead broke city and State shouldn't be thinking about such nonsense...Last edited by stuckincincy; 09-28-2012, 08:33 PM.Fiat justitia ruat caelum. Noli timere. Laus Deo.

Originally posted by Bulldog View PostWhy do you act as though the Bills are the only option for relocation? They are one of about five potential suitors, two of which currently reside in CA.
And btw, who are the 5? The short list was us, the Chargers, the Vikings, and Jacksonville. I guess you're throwing Oakland in there since you said 2 in CA. The Vikings got a stadium deal done so they're not going anywhere. Jacksonville has the most ironclad stadium lease in the history of sports. While that doesn't rule them out as an option, it sure as hell makes Buffalo a much more attractive option for relocation without the lease issue.
Realistically, it's just us, SD, and Oak.
And btw, did you even READ my post? I said it WASN'T the nail in the coffin- ie, I DIDN'T act like Buffalo was the only option for relocation. I know a lot of you have this preconceived notion that I'm always going to say the most pessimistic thing possible just because I'm not afraid to acknowledge the reality that people don't want to hear, but if you want to reply to my posts, please try actually reading and comprehending them first.

Re: LA City Council approves 1.1 billion football stadium proposal
Aren't the Bills working with Erie County, and NY State officials to get 200 million in stadium renovations for the Ralph? I don't see the Bills moving to LA. I think it will be Oakland, St. Louis, San Diego, or Jacksonville.

Re: LA City Council approves 1.1 billion football stadium proposal
Imo, the Chargers are the most likely team. They aren't very far away, which means that LA can still draw on some of their existing fan base. They only committed to another season last year, and their buyout in 2013 is only about 22 million (a fraction of a star player's contract). They've been trying to get a new stadium/deal for about a decade. And, LA Chargers definitely sounds better than LA Bills to me.
