After the Raiders moved back to Oakland, the Rams to Saint Louis after a short stint in Anaheim and of course the pass on the new expansion team which went to Houston Texas after Los Angeles said no thanks to subsidising a new new stadium and now with the financial problems Los Angeles is going through, is it possible the people would be so stupid to give incentives to move the Jaguars there or even an expansion team, will the public fall for this or will the NFL owners bankroll the move.

Only if they sell to a local owner.  Ultimately I tend to ignore these yearly stories from teams just looking for leverage against their city.  LA gets spun up and then gets left as the current city caves in.

Remember when the Seahawks moved to Anaheim?

Petz, that article supports FC's point about leverage.  I am almost glad LA has no team - no worry about blakouts
