Why does the NFL keep trying to make this LA thing happen?

The NFL in LA has already failed 3 times. LA was apathetic about the Rams this year. Polls suggest that they aren't too keen on the Chargers either.

    This is such a bad move on Spanos' part

    He is losing MILLIONS of life loyal fans

    The Chargers organization no longer has a stadium (they will be renting from the Rams, unlike the Jets and Giants who co-bought their stadium)

    The new logo is basically the dodgers logo with a little zig zag on the L

    Rest well Art Modell, youre no longer the worst owner in NFL history

    Instead of being the #1 sports attraction in San Diego, they now signed on to be the 10th most popular sports attraction in Los Angeles behind (no particular order) the Lakers, Clippers, Dodgers, Angels, Kings, Ducks, Rams, the MLS franchise, and the WNBA's Sparks...

    This is a disaster waiting to happen.

    Learn your history about LA and 'failure'. 2 teams moved due to greedy owners who couldn't get the LA area to pay for a stadium for them. The 3rd one was simply a placeholder for a new league until they decided where they would actually play.

    It isn't the NFL. Teams personally want to move to LA because it is a busier place. Busier= more fans at games= more money= happier staff and players

    Because of the size of the LA market

    They mistakenly overvalue LA's market potential, equating it to New York's. Greed on the part of the owners who are being short sighted about the long term consequences(see LA Raiders), and the league itself is guilty of being overzealous if not unrealistic.

    Because LA is better than your city.

    Probably the same logic that makes them think Goodell's worth $40,000,000 per year.
