    Rotoworld says;

    >>>>The league will give the Chargers and Raiders $100 million each in compensation if either decides to stay put but we're guessing the Chargers will eventually align with the Rams and share a stadium in Inglewood. The Chargers' preference was to split a venue with the Raiders in Carson but the owners preferred Stan Kroenke's Inglewood proposal. Assuming the Chargers and Rams come to an agreement, those teams will likely play in the Los Angeles Coliseum until the new stadium in Inglewood is ready. The $1.8 billion construction should be completed by 2019.<<<<



    Sounds pretty goofy. Apparently the chargers were willing to share a stadium with the raiders . .. that would be a cluster fuck

    It makes more sense to split it with the Rams, but there's supposedly a bloody history between Kroenke and Spanos.

    I'm sure there's a good reason byt why do the charger s want to leave San Diego. Kronke has the money and the land ready to go.

    "Because more money" is the short answer to virtually every question in life.

    for more on this paul:

    check out this list of largest TV markets that's all the owners are looking at even though LA hasn't supported teams in the past. you theoretically have a huge population to sell games to and it comes in handy when negotiating TV deals.

    That argument only makes sense if having a team or two in L.A. actually increases viewership in that market, which I strongly doubt.

    I think the Rams, since they used to be the LA Rams, might have a chance. 2 teams? Not too sure about that.

    Spanos got shit on. Instead of a open vote they did a blind vote and he lost 20-12. Kronke came in prepared to write a 1.5 billion dollar check got attention. Now Goodell is making Spanos the best deal possible even though they will be leasing from kronke. Oakland fucked themselves when they said no to sharing a stadium with the Niners

    The Oakland situation is so bizarre. They're essentially homeless at the moment.
