I know people say "Yay Vegas trip. I would love to catch a game there!" Until you don't want to deal with traffic, spend $150 on nosebleeds and $20 beers and would rather gamble $150 for 2 hours and get free drinks surrounded by beautiful women in a casino.

This move will be an epic failure within 5-6 years of opening the stadium. And I can't wait :pimp:

I know when im in Vegas, seeing an NFL game would be at the bottom of my list of things to do :lol:
 
When they get better they leave. That didn't work out for Santa Clara so well though. A lesson for the Las Vegas Raiders. 49ers will be back.

Oakland isnt losing their basketball team really though.  I mean, technically the city is yes, but your post seems focused on the fans.  The Warriors move shouldnt affect the fans at all.

yeah for sure. i guess going a cross the bay isn't that big a deal. more of an inconvenience for some balanced by added convenience of others.

Dolphins owner Stephen Ross explains ‘no’ vote to Raiders’ move

In a Phoenix hotel ballroom full of NFL owners voting yes, there was one dissenting opinion.

He then released a statement as to why.

Dolphins owner Stephen Ross was the lone “nay” cast on the Raiders’ relocation to Las Vegas. That move was approved, the Raiders joining the likes of Britney Spears and the Backstreet Boys to take up a Vegas residency.

The move, despite Ross’s vote, is expected as early as 2019.

“My position today was that we as owners and as a League owe it to fans to do everything we can to stay in the communities that have supported us until all options have been exhausted,” Ross said in the statement, via Adam Beasley of the Miami Herald. “I want to wish Mark Davis the Raiders organization the best in Las Vegas.”

There has been a lot of relocation of late.

The Raiders became the second franchise to move in 75 days; Chargers owner Dean Spanos exercised his option to vacate San Diego for Los Angeles on Jan. 12. Less than 15 months ago, on Jan. 13, NFL owners voted in Houston to clear Rams owner Stan Kroeinke’s move from St. Louis to Los Angeles.

The Rams and Chargers will share a stadium in Inglewood. It is currently scheduled to open in 2019.

A reminder to Ross’s position on relocation came from the NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport. He tweeted Ross “spent $500M+ in private funds to renovate a stadium,” effectively keeping the Dolphins in Miami for decades to come.

The public money is a bit different in this case. It's essentially going to be paid for in resort fees by tourists over the years. Pretty ingenious honestly.
 
ESPN keeps going back to live look-ins at that bar in Vegas :rofl:

All eight of those people are so excited :rofl:

EBC :pimp:
So many gorgeous woman over there the last time I went
 
Dawg the escorts out there gonna hella flourish with the raiders moving to Las Vegas :lol:
 
But on the real, Raiders should have been the ones to come back to LA and the Chargers to Vegas.
 
Do you see the joy on their faces Derek? (I see his point however)

He's a fan, that's the only way.

Best thing the Raiders can do is win while they are still in Oakland :lol: .

Damn, I would be so tight if the Jets moved out of NY/NJ. Like, what % is going to find themselves attending games anymore...
