Well Done, Khalil Mack... DPOY

Ooookay

I watched most of their games...must have been low standards this year lol. He was not impressive in most games.

When JJ Watt misses nearly the entire season someone has to win it. Mack probably got it based mostly on just having the biggest name cuz Watt didn't play.

Raiders President Marc Badain says financing for Las Vegas stadium won't be an issue


Reaffirming the franchise's desire to relocate to southern Nevada in the wake of casino magnate Sheldon Adelson withdrawing his $650 million pledge last week, Oakland Raiders President Marc Badain told a meeting of the Las Vegas Stadium Authority Board on Thursday that "financing will not be an issue."

And while the Raiders also lost the financing of Goldman Sachs, a longtime business partner of Adelson, Badain said "multiple financial institutions" had shown interest in the plan to build a $1.9 billion, 65,000-seat domed stadium that the Raiders would share with UNLV. Badain, though, did not disclose said interested parties.

Man, how can someone be a fan of a team that left your city once and is trying their hardest to leave again! These bay area Raider fans laughing about our gm/coach hire but are blind to see that their team is trying to get out of bay!

So they'll share a stadium with a college team (a crappy one at that) but would never become the 2nd team at Levi's, which was designed to accommodate two teams, in a million years while they still tried to work out some new stadium proposal in Oakland.

http://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/sheldon-adelson-spokesman-raiders-were-picking-his-pocket-on-vegas-stadium/

"(Adelson) was willing to share revenues and make it financially mutually beneficial, but they were picking his pocket," Abboud said, via the Las Vegas Review-Journal. "I think that they felt they were asking to be entitled to revenue streams and things that simply made the deal unworkable. It was never about the financial return for the Adelsons, but the Adelson family wasn't going to have their pocket picked, by the Raiders or by the NFL or anybody."

Meanwhile, CBS Sports NFL Insider Jason La Canfora reported on Jan. 30 that the Raiders' biggest issue with finding someone to finance the stadium is that Adelson is a powerful figure in Vegas and the concern is that he may use that power to make life difficult for the Raiders, especially if he feels like the team double-crossed him."

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000790903/article/raiders-secure-financing-for-potential-las-vegas-stadium

The Oakland Raiders took a step Monday toward a possible relocation to Las Vegas.

The team informed the NFL that they have secured financing from Bank of America for their potential Las Vegas stadium, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported, per a source informed of the situation.

The Los Angeles Daily News was first to report the story.

The news comes just several weeks after casino mogul Sheldon Adelson and later Goldman Sachs had pulled out of a plan to build a $1.9 billion domed stadium in Las Vegas. Adelson had pledged $650 million and the Raiders $500 million, with the stadium authority putting up $750 million in Las Vegas tax revenues.

---Two Questions, are they financing their own stadium now? and how bad do they want out of Oakland?

Buh-bye. Out of sight, out of mind.

Bye, hopefully the owners approve the move. Then the niners go on winning again like the last time they moved to LA.

A weekend in Vegas AND watching the Niners play the Raiders there, too?

YES PLEASE!
