>Americans will defend this

>selling your entire FA to sheikh akhbar ahmadinejad

Nice """sport""" you got there americucks.

>bongland will defend this

>Both teams have an middle eastern airline on there shirt

How analdevestated was the LA raiders autist when this happened kek? I'm glad they moved if only to BTFO that one fag.

>Raiders are nomadic and take territory by force

How do they not live up to their name... how many clubs do you have that are called "wanderers" who have played at the same grounds since Victoria was queen

>Teams can just fuck off to other cities like it's nothing
Explain yourselves Americucks

it's canada's fault

Don't have to, I'm American.

America's a huge country. You can't have a pro-rel system when some towns will have 5000 seat stadiums.

Why the fuck Vegas tho? Is there even a fanbase there for the Raiders?

They're a team with an identity more than a city, there's plenty of Raider fans in Las Vegas, they're the team of the grimy largely brown working class. They will neither gain nor lose fans with this move.

The Raiders are hard to explain

>short drive from LA to Vegas
>no existing fanbase in the area
>raider fans are pretty spread out anyway

Most importantly
>new stadium

the raiders are a brand, not a team/city
that's what you mean

Ias Vegas is part of LA Homie

Vegas was willing to pay for the stadium, that's the big thing.

The reason that Oakland lost their team was because O.co Coliseum was the worst fucking stadium in the NFL, because it was also a baseball stadium. The city of Oakland was unwilling to pay for the team to not play in that leaky, poorly made pile shit, so they don't get to host the team anymore. Simple as that.

There aren't any people making money off the Raiders, Mark Davis clearly is broke.

The Raiders are the closest thing to a team with an organic identity and that identity doesn't change with the move

>Al Davis: "Hey can we get a new stadium?"
>Oakland: "No."
>Los Angeles: "Sure."
>Al Davis: "Later."
>Oakland: "F-fine!"
>Al Davis: "Who the fuck is that?"
>LA: "The Rams."
>AL: "Where did all these moon chimps come from? Where's that new stadium?"
>LA: "Yeah about that..."
>Oakland: "H-hey we thought about it, you really deserve a new stadium. I still love you."
>AL: "Fuck you, LA."
>LA: "At least we got the Rams... where'd they go?"
>NFL: "Fuck you, Al."
>AL: "FUCK YOU."
>Court: "Go fuck yourself, NFL."
>AL: "Back in town, now about that stadium."
>Oakland: "Here's your scoreboard."
>AL: "LIBERIA SPEED" *dies*
>Mark: "Stadium please."
>Oakland: "Nyet."
>Las Vegas: "Sure."
>Mark: "Later."
>Oakland: "F-fine!"
>LA: "Hey I found where I put the Rams!"
>Rams: "Who's that?"
>LA: "The Chargers."

Cringe. Go back to redddit

I'll try and explain to the retarded Euros
>Stadium is giant money sink
>Never sells out
>Facilities confirmed by multiple sources to be by far the worst in the NFL
>Without money it's hard to attract free agents
>Raiders ask Oakland if they want to pay to fix things
>Oakland days no
>Las Vegas says yes
>Problem solved
If those lifelong locals really cared about the Raiders they would have helped

vegas is almost a 3 hour drive from LA

compare that to the 4-5 hour drive to oakland

The UK won't defend this

the controversy within the fanbase is not even that bad its overblown

most of the oakland fanbase know the politicians don't care about sports , they let the warriors walk during their championship stints and little before that

Warriors asked to buy the land oracle is on so they could build a arena next to it but oakland stalled and stalled only to offer them a outrageous deal. The warriors took their business to SF and are moving there next year.

when mark said oakland told him they have all the leverage and a week later raised the lease he was not bullshitting

they literally raised the lease from 700k to 3.5mil iirc for 3 years

they're corrupt as can be and do not care.

>LAS VEGAS IS MUH METROPOLITAN AREA

Holy shit you faggots will never let this go, will you?

>implying I'm from LA
forgot to mention its a hour flight for 70 dollars from vegas to LA

Most LA raider fans are fucking juiced.

I know a guy who hauls ass and can get to vegas in 1.5 hours. Plus now they get a vegas trip out of it.

This is a great move for the franchise...I'm a niner fan in the bay and can only laugh. Superb move. Gtfoh spics

>LA to Vegas is 270 miles
>in 1.5 hours
>180mph average

your friend is full of shit and both of you should kill yourselves, racist faggot

>get to Vegas in an hour and a half from LA

Lol I hope you two faggots kill yourselves crashing in the middle of the desert

I'm guessing they moved because Oakland wouldn't waste money on a stadium?

No other sport treats their fans like shit anywhere near as obvious as the NFL.

>Amerilards

>niner fan.
Kek

It's less that I don't care and more that I don't care about the Raiders or their fans. Fuck the Raiders.

That aint hard on a crotch rocket son.

>The Raiders are hard to explain
Even last year when the Raiders were good, they finished last in attendance.

The Raiders' problem has always been that they have a huge fanbase, but they don't have a localized one. NorCal is still mostly Niners fans.

Al would be proud of his son. Al loved Vegas. Mark's getting a stadium for next to nothing and he even got the relocation fee cut by half.

This is a good deal for the Raiders, who will have a home of their own for the first time ever. This is a good deal for the city of Oakland, who don't have to buy Mark Davis a stadium.

It's a shitty deal for Vegas, who have overpaid.

National (not Oakland) Raider fans will stay fans. The stands will still be mostly empty.

...

>everyone's going to ride a rocket ship
You're an idiot

>short drive
>Vegas is 4 hours away and there's always traffic

Kys, I hate when LAfags act like we're so close to everything

LV resident here.
I hope they lose every game.

What is there to defend?
The only point of the team is to make money
I doubt they'll make money in Vegas but their owner seems to think they will
Al Davis would have done this in a heartbeat and he was the heart and soul of the Raiders

Raiders fan here, this really shouldn't be funny fuck you lol

Or that the fucking stadium has the leqst seats of all stadiums, fan attendance is low because of the seating, not because of the fanbase

>The only point of the team is to make money
Why the fuck be a fan then?

Because watching sports are entertaining
I don't know you Yuros get so emotionally invested though
Pretty embarrassing tbqph
Besides like 90% of NFL fans don't go to games
So it's not like the team moving changed that much

When you're team has as many franchise relocation as Super Bowl wins.

So basically you're not that into sports. Not if it means you have to leave your sofa.

Explains a lot.

No
I'm just not deluding myself into making sports my religion
It's just a bunch of players playing with a ball
No need to get so emotional when they leave

I'll owllow it
