Raiders move to Vegas

[kcvet]

NFL owners voted 31-1 for the move

The Raiders are leaving Oakland again, this time for the neon lights of Las Vegas.

In a decision that would have been hard to fathom not so long ago, NFL owners voted 31-1 on Monday at the Annual League Meeting to approve the Raiders' proposal to relocate to Las Vegas.

they'll need cheerleaders

Not surprised that they moved I don't think anyone should be

I am a tad surprised of how many votes they got thought there would be a couple more holdouts

31-1...Lemme guess the one vote was Jerry Jones?

It'll be interesting to see how this all gets handled. IMHO the Raiders front office just shot themselves in the foot (again).

The Raiders will be in Oakland for 2 more years until the Stadium is build, well see how that goes

The one vote was from the Dolphins

Yeah...I'm OLD. Those rotten bastids will ALWAYS be Oakland to me. I HATE THE RAIDERS! That said, from a TV perspective I think the Vegas games are highly likely to be televised and suspect this may lead to more nationally televised games for the Chiefs.

Doesn't matter if we hate the Raiders or not can we all just take a minute to mourn the death of another historic football City. Al Davis has to be turning over in his grave

Faider fans need to realize that the NFL is a business. Read were Mark Davis was the poorest of all the owners. I'd bail to on Jokeland to, they had their chance and blew it.

the new stadium will be outside of downtown

I heard the Raiders also raised their ticket prices 40%. Man they are sticking it to their fans.
