Ross expects Los Angeles to get an NFL team within five years

I wouldn't miss them or their d-bag fans one bit.

I don't want anybody in the AFC East to move anywhere. You would be killing long standing rivalries. It already sucked when the Colts moved from Baltimore to Indianapolis. While the rivalry was still OK it did not feel like when they were the Baltimore Colts.

Moving the Jets or Bills somewhere else you are killing our rivals from day 1 (48 years).

Neil Lomax. His 1984 campaign is totally forgotten now but adjusted for the times it's one of the more extraordinary passing seasons of all time. 61.6% completions, 4614 yards, 28 TDs. His main problem is that he couldn't stay healthy. Also that the Cardinals weren't very good.

They didn't have a fan base to begin with that's why they moved. How often can you move a team between the same cities? Oakland-LA-Oakland-LA?

There are a lot more Raider fans in LA than Bills or Jags fans, that's for sure. The Rams and Raiders are guaranteed a base of die-hards that stuck with those teams after they left. Granted I haven't been out to LA in a while, but when I was in town I saw a lot of people rocking Raider gear.

They moved because of the lack of promised stadium renovations. Granted, LA presents similar problems to Miami, if you don't win, they won't show up; which has always made the chicken little threats of the Dolphins moving to LA if people only show up when they win kind of funny.
