Right now we have 500 mil. I think the last suggestion for a new stadium in Oakland was like 800-900 mil. Not sure how we get the rest.

Uncertainty is exactly the position we were in last year tho.Someone said we're in the same position we've been in all year. Not true. Only thing unchanged is the uncertainty. We all know this is a game and we're now occupying a totally different position on the board.
Mark actually played this the best he might even get LA next year. If Spanos really hates Stan.
Local radio stations here said that Spanos team and Kronke's team were in discussions and that the general consensus is that the Chargers will join the Rams.I'm down here in SD. Local news is reporting that SD is going to get a meeting with Spanos to work this out. Spanos wants no part of a deal with Stan.
Owners were “blown away” by differences between Inglewood and Carson

So why did the NFL’s owners choose to reject the 5-1 recommendation of the Committee on L.A. Opportunities and embrace Stan Kroenke’s Inglewood project over the Chargers-Raiders proposal in Carson?
It came down to the two projects, and specifically how they were presented to owners on Tuesday.
As one person who witnessed the presentations told PFT, the owners were “blow away” by Kroenke’s proposal, which was presented to ownership by Rams COO Kevin Demoff.
“Stan’s proposal was like watching Star Wars,” the source said, adding that the Carson proposal “was like watching a home movie from the ’70s.”
“Surely, you’re exaggerating,” I said to the source.
“I’m not exaggerating,” the source replied.
That’s a bit of a slap at Disney CEO Bob Iger, who made the presentation on behalf of the Chargers and Raiders (and whose company made the latest Star Wars movie). But, as the source explained it, Iger’s hands were tied by a project that the ownership, once it saw it, immediately concluded it simply didn’t compare to Inglewood.
So why did Iger get involved? The thinking is that Panthers owner Jerry Richardson, who strongly was opposed to allowing Kroenke to move to Inglewood, pursued Iger as a Hail Mary play, using Iger’s desire to becoming a minority owner of a team after his Disney career ends to lure him to the table.
It wasn’t enough, not after Kroenke pulled the sheet off his NFL city for owners who, beyond the L.A. Committee, hadn’t seen the full details before Tuesday. Once they did — and once the ballots were made secret — it became a no-brainer.

Uncertainty is exactly the position we were in last year tho.
Uncertain how we'll fill the gap of $300-$400Mill for the Oakland gap.
Uncertain if the Raiders will remain in Oakland.
Uncertain how committed MD is to Oakland.
Uncertain how committed Oakland is to the Raiders.
LA is still an option lol. Nothing has really changed.
MD even has StL as an option so now he'll probably be going to look at San Antonio, Portland and StL....if anything we have even MORE uncertainty.
i'll never get used to that name. maybe Mark will go with Southern California Raiders.San Diego is a real option though.
Ugh im tired of all this
lets be honest, this is not what really happened. Kroenke is building the sports epicenter of the west, its the reason why the RAMS are headed back to LA.30 owners just voted NOT to allow the Raiders to move to L.A.
Exactly. Nothin proactive bout that dude30 owners just voted NOT to allow the Raiders to move to L.A.
From an outside perspective Mark is looking for a hand out at this point.

its wasnt a no vote against anybody. sharp business acumen and deep pockets got it it done. Mark has neither.
