Las Vegas got even more interesting, imagine sin city hosting a SB. Sucks for raider fans in the bay though, just when the raiders started turning the corner they up and leave.

They're in Oakland for at least the next two years, maybe three. Maybe, they win a Super Bowl in the next few years.

GREED GREED GREED GREED GREED GREED GREED GREED GREED GREED

Say what you want about how incompetent, imbecilic, inept, ignorant, clueless, befuddled, bewildered, addle-brained, dull witted, slipshod, nonsensical, loony, moronic and thick headed the Yorks are. At least the kept the team IN THE BAY AREA!!!

What if they win a SB in Levi's( if they share the stadium)?

Ann Killion is my absolute least favorite writer in the Bay Area. She is so biased and is such a homer it drives me nuts. Not to mention, she isnt even knowledgeable "for a woman." She doesnt know s***.

I agree. This bad is for the NFL. And a bad sign for fans across America. Not a Raiders fan, but I really hope the city of Oakland do what Cleveland did and at least keep the team name. I hope not one Oakland fan follows this team to Vegas. And for the next two seasons that the team has to play in Oakland the organization needs to be protested heavily, booed loudly and often, the owners - including Roger Goodell - burned in effigy, Raiders games boycotted to XFL attendance, their games tickets scalped and counterfeited, and the organization deserves for the fans to openly cheer for the other teams on "home" games.

This is terrible.

Oakland isn't a legacy franchise. The raiders are. Vegas will now be the 4th city they've played in.
Not gonna disagree there. But they are a storied franchise, like my beloved 49ers. They are a team that I think should never leave. I just think there's something terribly wrong with this.
