Speaking of L.A. teams of the past, I always stifle a chuckle when young Turks or other tough guy wannabes wear Raiders apparel, because they think it makes them badass. :lol:

My dad who's from St. Louis is really pissed.  Maybe Limbaugh will buy the Rams and move them to his home town down in Cape.
It isn't like the LA Rams belong in St Louis anyway.
If not St. Louis, then where do they belong?

Behind the Detroit Lions, the Cleveland Browns and a Jamaican Bobsled team?
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

That's not what pro football teams do.

More like the wandering actors of Hamlet, reenacting Brady's protection story, lost on everyone except the commissioner.

Does LA still not have an NFL team?  :lol:

Nope, nor do they deserve one.

They can do like New York and adopt the Chargers.

New York has 2 NFL teams. You can tell because they are both called "New York <something>".

If you are talking about the state, they have three.

That brings up a question- would owning an NFL team result in greater or lesser sensitivity toward black people?

I'm talking about the city. I was under the impression both teams played outside the city.

Considering how close San Diego and LA are to each other and how well developed the corridor between them is, it's not that much of a stretch to call them a single metro area.

I don't think New Yorkers adopting say the New York Giants is quite the same thing as Los Angelines adopting the San Diego Chargers.

So?  The Cowboys play in Arlington and the Redskins play in Landover. :mellow:

Did Dallas and Washington 'adopt' those teams also?  :huh:

 :lol:

I made the comment about adopting the Chargers in less than complete sincerity. -_-

Buffalo doesn't even play in Buffalo.

I wonder how many NFL teams actually play within the city limits of their actual city?

The Niners do not.
The Cards do not.
Redskins don't.
Neither NYC team does.

Those are the ones I can think of in about 60 seconds. I am sure there are many more.
