It has to be annoying for the players though. Maybe there's a reason why the Chargers always underperform. [Reply]

Just saw the piece Fox Business News did at the site, Wow, just WOW!!!! Too bad it's being wasted on the Raiders, but that is one impressive facility. [Reply]

Good to hear! My front row seats will be comfortable. Vegas will be a good time for any fan of any team. [Reply]
It'll be interesting to see how the Raider fanbase evolves after the move. I'm not in California or Nevada, but there are tons of Raider fans where I live. They're all pretty pissed about not being able to tailgate.
I suspect they'll do well with Vegas locals as people who move to Vegas tend to have pride in it. However if they lose on the field and the hockey team continues to win then people might not give a damn.
It'd be funny if the Raiders became somewhat white-collar. [Reply]
