Do you want me to list the teams that have tried over the past 14 years?
Seattle Seahawks (right after the Rams left- League refuses)
Oakland Raiders (late 90's)
Minnesota Vikings (early 00's- told through league intermediaries that it wouldn't be allowed)
Oakland Raiders (again in early 00's)
San Diego Chargers (early 00's)
Jacksonville Jaguars (been a constant rumor for the past five years and at present are most likely to move to L.A.)
Paul Tagliabue (Goodell's puppet master) has even commended by Forbes on his great business "strategy" of leaving L.A. vacant and thus blackmailing any other city that has current stadium problems into coughing up public funds.
