Us fan's in LA are happy for this to happen. There are a ton of fans here that LOVE football and a lot of angry Raiders/Rams fan b/c their team left.

The best team to come to LA is San Diego. They have a built in fanbase here and are close enough to SD for those fan's to drive up for the game.

Not to mention that there will be a ton of fan's who will come to the game and root for their team that they support elsewhere since this is such a transient city.

Hasn't this been said twice before? Sorry, Frank... LA has a history of not supporting teams... I know the NFL is desperate to tap the second largest market in the nation, but the history just doesn't support it as a solid decision. LA is simply not an NFL town, IMHO.

I'm fairly certain that San Diego's loyal fans would be less than thrilled at the prospect of helping with your "ready built" fan base. Fans who are having their team stolen tend to feel... less than altruistic...
