1. The Niners won't move
L.A. does not need two professional football teams.

They already have the Trojans.

Thanks to cboy4 for the link

On edit: Unless the team is sold for some reason. Then all bets are off.

3. Well as I understand it the new stadium, that they desire
is dependent on the voters of Santa Clara.

4. Why doesn't Sacramento have a pro football team?
Because then San Francisco would want one, too! :P

(actually, despite the general suckitude attached to all things York, there is some buzz that the Niners could be this year's 'Arizona Cardinals".)

8. There had been talk years ago about the Raiders possibly moving to the
capital city. (yea right.)

However, if they cannot even figure out a way how to build a new facility for the lame-ass Kings, then ..

Of course, when it comes to the Kings asking taxpayers to pay for a new arena, it doesn't help that their playboy owners own the luxury Palms Casino in Las Vegas.

Oh can I tell you some stories about this!!

5. Every team that wants a new stadium threatens to move to L.A.
News flash: We don't want 'em! You think you got it tough now? You think the L.A. voters will give you a stadium that the Frisco voters would not?

No team's coming here. Unless they build their own stadium. Then all bets are off.

Still. The 9ers? Please...

7. How quickly does one graduate to the level of stupidity by speculating/deducing/
conjecturing that the 49ers are/have been considering moving to Los Angeles?

None of which are the least bit flattering toward you.
