  Did he really say that?

Practice squad safety left out—the disrespect.
Full quote 
 
 
 
 
Still a fan if they move the Raiders?
I don't know.
damn.
Would you if they moved to San Antonio? Or you don't care the location?
I'm from Hawaii so I dont care about the location, but I feel for the fans in Oakland who been going to games week after week to watch terrible teams lose most of the time. Now when it looks like there might be something to look forward to they lose the team to another city, thats a real kick in the nuts.
 
 
I seriously hope RGIII lights it up somewhere else.
Falcons???

Quinn coached in Seattle with mobile QB (and God's second favorite son) Russy Wilson

RG3 = Mike Vick 2.0?

Arthur Blank rights is wrongs?

Matt Ryan washed?

If your fav team upped and moved to another city would still wanna root for them?

Why wouldn't you?

Exactly why only rooting for home teams is a stupid concept to begin with.

Teams move, people move, some states don't even have teams, root for who you want, and ride or die with them from there, wherever they go.

I think whether your a transplant fan versus a homegrown fan does play an important factor. I'm from GA, and 80% of my friends and family are Falcons fans. If the Falcons were to move to Toronto or London, they wouldn't root for them anymore; there would no longer be any connection. Many fans put up with terrible teams (i.e. Browns, Jaguars) because of the impact the team has on the city and community. One example is the Charlotte Hornets. Once they moved to New Orleans I don't remember those fans still being fans of the team. 

Many feel teams represent the city or state. A move would no longer mean that.

Did you know the City of Oakland is still paying for renovations to the O.Co Coliseum to bring the Raiders back from LA from 1995? So I really don't blame the city if Oakland for not wanting to fund a new stadium for them. The NFL is a billion dollar organization and they want the cities of these teams to pay for these stadiums. It's a ******* joke

It's not the team's choice to move...
It's the owner...

Wherever the Dolphins go I'll be a fan. Miami, LA, London... doesn't matter.
 
Hell, I haven't lived in New York since I was a kid but the Giants are my team.

I liked them because of my grandparents though, not because of home team or anything. They live closer to Buffalo anyway.

Not like my team would ever move though

I get all of the reasons why those three teams are considering movement and I understand. Oakland ain't even a day's drive from LA, same with LA to San Diego. Rams just been ****** over from the start.

Bingo.

That's a god damn horrible argument. If you live in Seattle and still root for the thunder than you probably enjoy other dudes banging your wife
