Looks like I just might have a home team after all. I have not had a home team to root for since 1994!

BOTH the Rams and Raiders left in 1994.

I really don't care which team comes to L.A. but as long as they are based here, I'm a fan.

I never understood fans from L.A. being Oakland Raider or St. Louis Rams fans. If they bail from my city, to hell with them!

....and it looks like no public funds will be involved!

Go Los Angeles ??????????s !!!!!!!!!!!!! :smile:

    Though I'm not from your side of the country. I still can't get used to referring to the RAMS as the St. Louis RAMS?

    Is the "Arizona Cardinals" any better? I think teams should be required to change their names when they move, like the Tennessee Oilers.

    But the Rams aren't from L.A. either. They started in Cleveland.

    I don't care who the team is or what their name is, as long as they are playing in my city. I feel if I'm rooting for another team its kinda like rooting for a college I never attended.....doesn't make sense to me.

    Don't worry. In 2 years you'll be getting the Rams back.

    That would be fine with me, in fact it would be the only team I could really root for!

    At least Modell left the name and the legacy, and allowed Cleveland to rebuild their tradition. Irsay sucked the life out of B'more.

    We were so desperate, we even went CFL for a couple of years... dropped it like a hot potato, though, when the NFL returned!
