Any way to get past the pay wall for this scab paper?
Does the author address the fact why they built the stadium there? I’d be curious to know if it was because the place was such a disaster and the land was very cheap. Ergo, the team owner wasn’t shelling out the big bucks for some pricier real estate, obviously, nor would he have much resistance from the residents. The folks in Inglewood were begging for something. They got it.
Wonder if/ when the gentrification starts and how many of the residents that have lasted get priced out when the white liberal hipsters and cool “Diners Drive-Ins and Dives” restaurants start popping up?
LMAO
So, I heard the Superbowl is now in February. Is it next weekend? It must be coming up...
It’s still a damned slum.
I hate these "futuristic" Stadiums. It all started here with "Jerry World".
The NFL should have had a halftime show dedicated to John Madden anything less is inexcusable.
The new Intuit Dome will be built by Steve Ballmer in 2024, so I predict they will tear down the old Forum.
I guarantee the team owners did not pay for the stadium.
I grew up in westchester in the late 60s 70s it was a place whitey had to get out of down before dusk
Its the FTPSB
Hollywood Park shut down.
There was room.
Rams are johnnie-come-latelies from Cleveland.
They’re holding a memorial for him tomorrow in the MNF time slot. And the NFL network has already had 1 round table about him. Probably NBC will or has. Last thing anybody needs is a downer halftime.
I like em because of how quickly they’ve made Jerry World look old and pathetic.
Could be. If so, another stain on the city and county of Los Angeles and the state for making th taxpayer pickup the tab.
The ability for cities to pass those costs onto the people has been ended in some places.
Not a fan of Marlins Park, the first "postmodern" or "futuristic" stadium like you said in baseball. Camden Yards did it the best, retro-classic style.
They should bring back “Up With People!” for halftime.
Used love flying in and seeing the race track off to the right.
Those were nice and ignorable.
