represent to San Antonio.” (excerpt from press release by owner Jerry Jones on new contract.)

Thus we can see why public money is eagerly donated. The full costs of a stadium and the damage it does to communities are often years in the future, long after the politician is known for being the hero that save our local team and has moved on to bigger and better things, now with the campaign funding of the very teams that they built homes for and the fans who continue to pay. Team owners can choose new cities but cities can’t choose new teams thanks to the leagues government-sanctioned monopolies over franchise placement, mayors for example, feel they must offer owners anything they want. “Politicians continue

     Possibly those who are most effected by the sport’s industry’s willingness to abandon a community are the dedicated fans. When Al Davis moved the Oakland Raiders to Los Angeles, he pulled away from some of sport’s most loyal fans and also hurt his football team. The NFL’s Colts and Cardinals have also had failures on the field since their moves. These three teams are proof that all the greed that was put into the moving of their franchises hasn’t brought them more success or in some cases less success.

Most cities have plenty more championships and wins. Take the New England Patriots as an example. They have been to 8 super bowls and have won half of them along with having winning seasons after winning seasons. Or another example is the Pittsburgh Steelers. ¨The Steelers have played in eight Super Bowls, winning six of them, including four in six years¨ (Super Bowl History). Although teams have more successful wins, their story and their fans are nothing compared to Cleveland’s. Overall Cleveland, Ohio is the best sports city because of the money the city generates, the love of the fans, and the history of the

Last NFL season for the San Diego Chargers didn't went so well going for example they went 5-11 and losing against the Cleveland browns,but now they have a fresh as they just announced this week they were moving to Los Angeles and now called Los Angeles Chargers. However some fans are disappointed with the owner's decision because after 50 years of franchise in San Diego. Although the NFL wants the chargers back in San Diego the owner Dean Spanos says Is a fresh start for the team, but many of the owners that invest on ownership are upset of them leaving. The reason why some fans are really heated and betrayed Is Dead Spanos promised “Not only did Spanos say that keeping the Chargers in San Diego was a priority, but he also promised to give

The Gateway to the west, isn’t always the best. The St. Louis Rams couldn’t have an NFL team due to the lack of people in the city, money issues, and stadium debt. Los Angeles is a city of countless opportunities for the Rams to thrive and build their franchise. Los Angeles, a city of over 4 million, has finally achieved world class status but, on the other hand, relocating and building a new stadium costs millions of dollars and Stan Kroenke, the owner of the NFL Rams franchise, has a very hard decision to make whether or not he wants to move due to the fact he could lose millions of dollars if they are unsuccessful . Although many may say that the Rams were right to leave due to the lack of attendance, the financial burden the team places

In the City of Houston, the interest in the world of sports has grown to tremendous heights over the recent years due to winning teams, new teams and new sports facilities. Among these new facilities is the new reliant stadium, which is home to a fairly new Houston Texans football team since 2002 and Minute Maid park home of the Houston Astros. Not long ago, things were much different. Before Reliant stadium and Minute Maid we had the Astrodome. Instead of the Houston Texans, we had the Houston Oilers. Both very capable football teams in two different arenas.

Expansion teams are basically relocating a team so you’re not starting a new franchises you’re just moving it to a new city with a better fan base. Usually the fan base determines which teams stay in their city and which teams need a revamping of some sort. If the NFL determines that the cities fan base doesn’t care or doesn’t have enough pride for their team they will move them to a place, like L.A, that has been vouching for one for years now. St. Louis, San Diego and Oakland are the three teams that are in the hunt for relocation. The fan base in St. Louis is dedicated but they don’t necessarily buy into the atmosphere Rams owner Stan Kroenke has put out. The tailgating scene in St.Louis is dead, which is a good consensus to know a fan base isn’t buying

Talking to the fans of the two teams, they are both interested and excited to by new Bills and Sabres attire because Western New York

California has started to ban the nickname ‘Redskins’ as it is apparently a slur to Native Americans. That specific name is offensive to Native Americans.

In week nine of the NFL regular season the Oakland Raider faced off against the Houston Texans in the Azteca stadium located in Mexico City. This was the first NFL game played in Mexico since 2005. The article "The NFL's Experiment in Mexico City," by Adam Chandler, outlines the ups and downs of this event and how it played out for the NFL. The article first explains why the NFL decided to have a game in Mexico. First of all the Azteca stadium went through some renovations making it more suitable for a real NFL game. Secondly, with the shocking drop in ratings for the NFL it only made sense to bring a game into Mexico City which has seen large increases in viewership and general interest in the NFL. In fact, Mexico City holds the 7th most

Expansion of the National Football League to twenty-eight teams was an agreed part of the AFL/NFL merger of 1970 and confirmed at the end of that season,[1] but attempts to carry it out did not materialise until after the 1973 season, when it was announced that Tampa would be the first city to get an expansion franchise,[2] at a cost of US$ 16,000,000 (which even then was considered a “paltry” sum.[3] Part of the reason for the delay was due to uncertainties in a few of the newly integrated teams' stadiums; both the Buffalo Bills and Boston Patriots had stadiums inadequate for the NFL, and Tampa interests unsuccessfully courted both teams to move to the Tampa Bay area.[4][5] Once Rich and Schaefer Stadiums were built for the Bills and Patriots respectively, the league was stable enough to begin expanding.

Staying in Oakland will be the best solution financially. Oakland has a booming economy that continues to grow at a rapid pace. Many new companies setting up headquarters in Oakland, such as Uber, are making the prices of living in Oakland rise higher and higher because many rich tech people are moving in rapidly. As a result, Oakland is becoming a much nicer place than it once was. By staying put, the Raiders would benefit from more expensive tickets due to Oakland becoming a wealthy city. Also, the Raiders fan base in the Alameda County is second to none, as they have been selling out games for years. This will also help drive up the ticket prices because there will be lots of demand for the tickets, thus raising the prices even further.
