Sad story, but different sport and audience entirely.

Football needs considerably more population to support a team. And don't come back with "Green Bay," which is an obvious outlier. I even have my doubts about Las Vegas long-term.
I had the same thought. It's hard to have a fan base in a town like Vegas where many people are from different areas with different allegiances. It also doesn't help that they suck

We are talking ownership changes and the new owner bolting with the team, Behring and Bennett with a lot of help from Shultz saying he doesn't care about the fans undermined the franchises. Hell the Celtics were almost moved out of town, not to mention Selig moving the Pilots to Milwaukee and then again them being moved to Washington DC. Buffalo lost their NBA team to Neworleans who then lost it to Utah. Vancouver Grizzlies to Memphis. Kansas City Omaha Kings to Sacremento. Then we have the Raiders and Rams bouncing back and forth between St Louis and L.A. and Oakland and now Vegas, Chargers up state to L.A. where that Fan base supported big time. In fact if a California owner put in a bid I would be wary of us going to San Diego.

San Diego wants their Chargers back

The hands on female owner of the Colts has them suddenly doing very well. Jody is much more hands on now than she used to be, but knows enough to know the limits of her understanding. One thing she does know is how to find and keep the right folks on her staff.
I read of Jody in Portland, her accusers disappeared. It was likely a scam. At least I believe that she was falsely accused.

The billionaire boys club pushing for the Bezos-Seahawks acquisition. I don’t necessarily see this as a bad thing. I remember Jerry Jones saying Bezos would be great for the league not to mention the Seahawk franchise
Jerry Jones is a mouth breathing jizz bag. I don't care what that POS has to say on anything. Bezos is a bad idea. That dude will sell the first chance he gets and the team will get moved. I don't trust Bezos at all.

Sell the Blazers to someone who will move them up a few miles and rename them the Sonics.

Then do what the Packers did and sell the team to shareholders!

I would buy one just to say "I AM YOUR BOSS JOHN, DRAFT A RG"!!

Not a bad thing? Wait until Bezos's favorite politician convinces him his new shiny toy shouldn't be shackled in a sanctuary state and a shi+hole of a city.
