I don't think LV can sustain an NFL team...Also we really don't need MORE traffic in that part of town, put it in the Southwest or something...

I thought they couldn't have an nfl team because of the legalized gambling. I thought the NFL has some rule about it

It's not a real rule, it's a "hush hush" thing, they don't want to tarnish the brand with the sins of...well sin city.

Yeah, MLB would have a bigger problem with LV than NFL I think. Baseball has been little bit old lady style freaked out about sports gambling for a century or more.

 

Football hasn't been through that scandal yet.

Meanwhile the NFL is financially supporting FanDuel and other statistic based gambling.

They would just take all Las Vegas games off the board if Vegas got a team.

The NFL is more interested in expanding to Europe than it is in expanding into Vegas.

This is the Raider owner being a billionaire bully, threatening to take his ball and go to another city if he does not get taxpayer funded stadium.
