Mr. WEO Posted January 20, 2016 Share Posted January 20, 2016 That is because he has backers in Texas willing to fund his move there if that is what he wants to do. Who is kicking in 1.5 billion or so to make Davis the owner of a SA NFL team? 'Perez says the only way the Alamo City can continue the conversation is if city leadership can come up with proposals to fund a brand new Raiders stadium here in Texas.' Yeah, so much for that.

ALF Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Report: Raiders would 'pounce' on San Diego if Chargers leave for L.A. "As for San Diego, the city currently has a $1.1 billion stadium plan that would require $121 million in contributions from both county and city taxpayers for a total of $242 million. That would leave the Chargers or Raiders on the hook for about $333 million of stadium costs. " If that new stadium deal is made for San Diego , the Chargers could save that $550M relocation fee.

ALF Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Where does the other half a billion come from? The city would also chip in another $225 million by selling land around Qualcomm Stadium.

May Day 10 Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Speculators are the biggest driver in high ticket sales. It is the reason the sabres have had a waiting list for going on 10 years despite very poor results, the reason the bills will always have a waiting list once they get their act together, and why the comparisons between December games in 1990 vs 2015 are silly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 (edited) So what? Speculators obviously sense a high demand. Think about what you just said. If demand were high, resellers would not be able to acquire many seats. Keep an eye on Ticket Exchange and StubHub the next few years. They will be your first indicators of the NFL's success or failure in L.A. Edited January 24, 2016 by PromoTheRobot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
