On the flip side this got posted recently in the SD Union:
So long, Chargers?
Hello, Raiders?
No scenario is too strange to mull in San Diego as the stadium game plays out here, in our remote sector of the NFL empire.
So, for the latest on the Raiders and their stadium prospects, we turn to stadium-game tracker Vincent Bonsignore of the Los Angeles Daily News. He sees San Diego as a potential option for the Raiders, should Dean Spanos move the Bolts to Inglewood. Bonsignore spoke this week to the possibilities in a readers chat for the San Jose Mercury News, a sister newspaper.
I think with a compelling San Diego plan, the Raiders would secure the support of the needed fellow owners for a move.
If he goes to L.A., Spanos would be unable to block another NFL team from moving to San Diego.
All three teams signed agreements relinquishing rights to former markets - should they move of course - as part of the requirements to be considered for relocation. So Dean has no rights to SD, or right to protest, if he moves to L.A.
As for the $100 million the NFL promised to both the Chargers and Raiders, should they strike a new stadium deal with their current cities, it's Bonsignore's understanding that Raiders owner Mark Davis could apply the $100 million to a deal with San Diego if Spanos move the Bolts.
He also said that Disney executive Bog Iger and billionaire Larry Ellison are potential investors in the Raiders.
