Please.. don’t let it be the Raiders. When they moved to L.A., their fans wouldn’t shut the $%^& up about it for years. I swear, there could be riots in Oakland if they moved again.

On the other hand, when they moved to L.A. in 1982, they had a much better team. They had won a couple Super Bowls and had been in the playoffs almost every year in the '70s. Yes, they still have a fan base-- the so-called Raider Nation-- but most of those folks don't live in Oakland proper anymore. They're spread out and dispirited. A move to L.A. now would result in a whimper not a bang.

How could one tell?
