PSLs huh? I guess they want to make the same mistake the Raiders made. Good luck with that, I don't think sports fans in LA give enough of a shit about the Rams to fork out money to reserve seats which they can then buy tickets for to Rams games.
No, PSLs aren't funded by fans, they're funded by Fortune 500 companies in the area. This is why you can built a privately funded stadium in LA or the Bay Area, but you can't do that anywhere else. It's the reason why the threat of "moving to LA" was a serious threat for so long.
Lol... Oakland breathes a sigh of relief while SD gives no fucks about the Chargers.
It's all political posturing. The Mayor of SD has done an INCREDIBLE job of doing nothing to actually build a stadium while somehow keeping up appearances that he did something so his job rating is super high despite the fact that we almost did and almost certainly will lose the Chargers. The concept of getting re-elected after dumping an NFL franchise is almost unthinkable.
What they're doing now is poorly timed gloating that the Carson project didn't go down because they think they can call the Chargers bluff because Stan Kroenke is fucking ruthless and has no incentive whatsoever to give the Chargers an even vaguely good deal, but its a deal none-the-less that I think they'll take, at least eventually. But if I had to hazard a guess, I think they'll try to see if they can push a vote through in SD and just risk being a year behind Stan's fan-push. The NFL does NOT want two teams in LA if they can help it, they just feel "bad" for Dean Spanos.
Meanwhile, Oakland isn't really doing or saying anything challenging because they have absolutely no intent to ever give the Raiders any kind of public subsidy, period. If the Chargers exercise their option to move, I would not be even vaguely surprised to see the Raiders try to move in on San Diego as a territory. Without LA available to build or occupy a stadium. there's basically nowhere for the Raiders to really go. This is all kind of ironic given that the Raiders are the only one of these three teams that have fans in LA.
