The Negative Effects Of Migration To Las Vegas

2004-2006: The preseason training camp was moved back to Oxnard, California because of scheduling conflicts.

I have been a fan of the Oakland Raiders since I was born. The city of Oakland has a rich history. It is the birthplace of the Black Panther Party and the home of many influential artists, such as Tupac, MC Hammer, and Too Short. The Raiders shouldn’t leave this city because of the culture that has spawned from here, a culture that the they are a part of. The Raiders staying in Oakland will be profitable to the ownership as well as beneficial to the team on the field and for fans.

Sports teams and more importantly the NFL does not always have respect for the city or its people. In some cases the teams have contracts with the city their cities that state the conditions of maintaining the stadiums they play in. In Cincinnati, the Bangles cost the Hamelton County a lot of money. in Hamilton County, where one in seven people lives beneath the poverty line and budget cuts have left gaps in the schools and sheriffs department, residents are bracing for more belt-tightening: rollback of a property-tax break promised as part of a 1996 plan to entice voters to pay for two new stadiums (Wall Street Journal). It pays more for the team than it does on the citizens. In 2013 the team threatened to move to another city if the county did not pay for upgrades to their new stadium. For the second super bowl the city of Glendale had, the mayor was officially uninvited due to a disagreement on the terms of the event. The construction of the stadium that event was held at was the subject of contraversy as well, money.cnn.com reports “Taxpayers paid for most of the University of Phoenix Stadium, which opened in 2006 and is home to this Sunday's Super Bowl -- to the tune of about $300 million.”. Citizens of Santa Clara deal with increased traffic in their city for the San Francisco 49rs playing in their city, despite protests from the people. In the end if you try to get in the way of the organization they do not care what position you hold in office, so long as they get their way.

The Immigrants Came to Kansas for a better opportunity. Many went to Welch Town. As they settled in the country, they moved to the west of Mississippi in search of "the land of milk and honey".

Al Davis has been known to put other coaches and players into terrible locker conditions, to intimate them. He felt like it was the Oakland Raiders against the NFL, he would win at all costs. many people do not remember who Al Davis was or all the great things he has done for the sport or the Oakland Raiders franchise. He has racked up many accomplishments during his time in the NFL and AFL but are overshadowed by his intimating tactics, his last few draft picks, and his self proclaimed war on the NFL. Wayne Valley the original owner of the Oakland Raiders first offer to Al Davis, for the head coach position, was declined.

The Minnesota Vikings are a storied franchise that was an NFL expansion team in 1960 and they played their first season in 1961. The vikings are currently in the NFC North Division, and before that they were in the NFC Central Division. They first time they made the playoffs was in 1968, and they have made the playoffs 27 times since making the playoffs last in 2015. The Vikings currently hold 19 division titles, and 4 conference championships. They have one NFL championship that pre dates the AFL-NFL merger. They won the championship in 1969. They have had 4 separate stadiums with U.S. Bank Stadium being the newest. U.S. Bank was build upon the former site of Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome, and it was just completed on June 17th, 2016. The cost

However, this fact has changed drastically in recent years. In fact, these mascots are essentially making their team lose money. According to an Emory University sports-marketing study, MLB teams using Native American mascots cost themselves about $2.6 million per year, and NFL teams $1.6 million per year in revenue by continuing to use the condemned mascots. Despite successful seasons in 2010 and 2013 for Kansas City and in 2012 for Washington, the Chiefs and Redskins have suffered two of the NFL’s harshest brand falloffs over the last

Oakland, California maintains its spot as the #2 Most Dangerous City in the United States for the second year in a row; however, after reaching a 10-year high in violent crime in 2012, the city managed to decrease its crime rate last year. Despite an over in violent crime during the first six months of 2013 relative to the

Right now, there’s no nostalgic feelings or reliving memories at Heinz Field. On-campus stadiums create a unique setting, as there’s a natural relationship between football and campus life. The alums and fans that come on campus each Saturday would not only give the university a new image, but also bring in hundreds of new patrons for Oakland’s businesses. Many businesses were hurt from the lost revenue of no Panther football games when they moved in 2000; some even went out of business. Bringing football back on campus would give them a much-needed boost and could help revitalize the entire neighborhood of

The Dallas Cowboys, America’s football team, one of the most well known professional football franchises in the sport’s history. The Cowboys own five super bowl titles, which were won in ’71, ’77, ’92, ’93 and ’95. They are also home to 19 renowned individuals who have been inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame including standout football stars Tony Dorsett, Emmit Smith, and Troy Aikman. Established in 1960, the Cowboys have been a dominating force on the field and still continue to produce to this day. Forbes wrote, “The Cowboys franchise value reaches over 1.85 billion and are listed as the third most valued sports team in the world”, (Page 1). With all of this hype and world wide recognition the powerhouse from Dallas needs a venue just as

Immigrating to America, no matter where you are coming from, has its fair share of trials and tribulations. Immigrants have to go through weeks of traveling to finally get to America and then completely rebuild their lives in this new country. While most immigrants went through similar experiences when migrating to America, , such as, traveling by sea, fighting illness, and enduring medical checkups upon arrival in Ellis Island, their ultimate reasons for leaving their home country varied, by economics, politics, or warfare.

Coming in 4th place just like as their arch nemesis in baseball , the San Francisco 49ers are a historic team in the NFL. Producing 5 Super Bowl Champion teams (not to mention Hall of Fame players), Forbes lists the average ticket price at $117.00. For Bay Area’s only football team, a city which houses 4.6 million people, there is a vast array of consumer behavior the 49ers can target. Once they observed the success Golden State has with social media, the 49er marketing team went to work. Now, they follow a similar pattern with posts and highlight reels on vehicles such as Twitter and Instagram. The team was purchased in 1977 by owners Denise DeBartolo York and John York for $13 million. Through the years, the 49er’s fan base has never seen

From a business perspective it would be a terrible idea to change the name. The brand already makes a bunch of money, and it would be difficult to get a whole new name and logo to sell. On top of having to get a whole new brand to be profitable, they would also have to replace all the jerseys, athletic gear, remodel the whole stadium, plus a lot of other stuff. Then they have all the merchandise

The three locations that I propose to be a site for a UFL franchise would be: Omaha, Nebraska; Portland, Oregon; and . Each of these locations offer a unique experience for the sport fan, as well as, pave a way for success for the franchise. Each of the locations previously mentioned were chosen based off the following criteria: NFL territorial regulation, demographic information, professional competition, corporate presence, and interim facility.

The St. Louis Rams have been in the city of St. Louis for 20 years playing in the Edward Jones Dome for a while with the lease agreement being that the dome must be in the top 10 in best NFL stadiums, this year it was ranked in the top 7 worst NFL stadiums, which is the complete opposite of what the NFL was expecting. In 2013 The commissioner of St. Louis and The St. Louis Rams came into a understanding to try to build a new stadium or renovating the dome with half of the dome being cut off and built into a new section of the stadium costing St. Louis only 250 million dollars with more than 75 percent of the stadium being payed for by Stan Kroenke and the Rams organization with negotiations being shut down after every attempt by St. Louis it seems like the Rams will not be in St. Louis for much longer.
