Los Angeles Reportedly On The Hunt For NFL Teams

• California could be a testing ground for determining National Football League teams� liability for brain injuries sustained by football players, The New York Times reports. The wife of retired football player Ralph Wenzel is filing a claim contending her husband�s dementia was caused by his eight-year career as a lineman for the Pittsburgh Steelers and San Diego Chargers. Under California workers� compensation laws, athletes can file claims if they�ve played just one game in the state.

• It's going to be the Rams. They're the only team for sale. The Raiders will sign a lease and move to LA as well. The only way it could be the Chargers is if they can't get that new downtown waterfront stadium built. Either way, Rams/Raiders or Rams/Chargers, LA will only support ONE football team. Just like they only support the Lakers and not the Clippers. Look for t.v. blackouts every other week in Los Angeles.

• Pretty good post. I just stumbled upon your blog and wanted to say that I have really enjoyed reading your blog posts. Any way I'll be subscribing to your feed and I hope you post again soon.

• Jaguars have any outdated stadium? Is that a joke? It's not even 15 years old and it was built specifically because of the Jaguars, nearly half of it through taxpayers dollars. NFL owners need to be brought up on racketeering charges with the way they play this "new stadium or leave" game with each city to get taxpayers to pony up limited resources on stadiums with more luxury seats and more overpriced tickets to enrich these already unheavenly rich guys. Majestic isn't any better. The cost of mitigating the traffic nightmare of their stadium in the middle of no where will fall on us.
