I've read some stuff about a Bills move too. Most citing the older facilities and ancient ownership. I refuse to believe any of it until it happens.
Best thing for LA, and something else i've said for years... Just play the Super Bowl there every year. Upgrade the rose bowl with adequate luxury suites. You'll never have a problem with home field advantage possibilities, it's usually always good weather, there is stuff to do, money in place, etc. 7/3/2006 2:27:11 AM |

If the saints go to the LA, would would replace them in the NFC South? 7/3/2006 8:14:08 AM |

You are a crazy person. Have you ever been here? I've lived in Va Beach for 2.5 years and I work in Norfolk. The Tidewater area went after the Expos really hard but was never considered a real option b/c there is no coorperate support. Same would be true with the NFL.
This area has a large population but a large part of them are military and move around alot as well as being deployed for long periods of time. Someone who may or may not get deployed isn't going to pay for season tickets. This area although larger and higher population is way less advanced than Raleigh...RDU makes Norfolk International look like a small airport b/c people here either don't flight b/c they can't afford it or are scared of flying. This area would make the Marlins look well supported. This area can't even get good crowds at the Norfolk Tides or Admirals7/3/2006 9:02:22 AM |
