Does LA actually give a shit about getting an NFL team, let alone two again? For instance, Baltimore was chomping at the bit for a team and was more than happy to receive stolen goods despite that happening to them, they were desperate for NFL football again. Is there any sentiment like that, anything at all, in Los Angeles or do the people just generally not give a fuck?

Would it look like pic related in LA, too?
>>
Yes. LA is extremely excited for a football team. There is an entire generation of young adults like myself that grew up with no home football team and we are ready to pick up a team and run with it. Despite what the media and flyover state losers say, LA has a pretty loyal sport following. The Lakers still have good turnout despite being one of the worst team in the league, and the dodgers always had good attendance despite being god awful for 10+ years. This whole image of LA as this movie town full of fake people is bullshit. The majority of people that live here are real normal people just like anywhere else.

Rams have more support from their city than the Raiders and they have more support from the city and fans than the chargers.

Baltimore at least earned it, they had exhibitions, they had a CFL team, the league just had a stick up their ass when it came to awarding them an expansion for whatever reason. Passed over them for multiple times.

Yes, No

We just want the raiders , the farther away from stan the better. Nobody forgot the bullshit he and georgia pulled to move out.

I mean that was an official poll that people from LA voted on, so....
>>
So NFL teams just up and leave when they like?
>>
>>63989399
I can guarantee it was an online poll from some LA site

unless you come to LA and extensively interview or set up spots to interview a certain amount of people you are not going to get a clear answer to who wants what but as a native of LA for the past 24 years and a fan of football I can at least give you this.

Most of the older fanbases for both rams and raiders are still very much here, the farther south to technically orange county , the more ram fans you will find which should be no surprise no anybody after all they played in both LA and Anaheim and likewise the more centered to the surrounding areas of LA in general you will find raider fans.

Ill just get to the point
Rams were a respected organization here but the sabotaging of the team ruined their decades of history in the span of 5 or so years. I can entertainingly guarantee old school ram fans would rather have the rams back without stan involved.

Raiders came to LA when LA's culture was still relatively young and booming. Their superbowl win catapulted the city's sport culture with fernandomania and the magic era helping. You either grew up a raider fan in the early 80s here in LA or was seen as a fairweather cunt unless you lived in LA but originally from anahiem .

tldr; raiders will always be LA's Football team

>As the losses piled up and the team was seen as playing uninspired football, the Rams' already dwindling fan base was reduced even further. By 1994, support for the Rams had withered to the point where they were barely part of the Los Angeles sports landscape. With sellouts becoming fewer and far between, the Rams saw more of their games blacked out in Southern California.

shut the fuck up

of the 3 major cities, LA is the worst sports city by far

probably top 3 worst sporting cities in the US, so pathetic that the most popular sport in the country won't even put a team in your city and you have the 2nd biggest population in the whole country

how pathetic is that?

Can't exactly go along with this.

I'm one of the older cats here going back on shit back into the 70s. LA showed much love for their teams back then, way before the Raiders moved down and the Clippers came to town. How all that fell apart is another story but it always wasn't that way.

As an LAfag, we're borderline Miami-tier in terms of fairweatherness but at least we still support our teams in the downturn. Lakers games still sell out despite the past 2-3 godawful seasons and same shit with the Dodgers

Everyone really loves to shit on LA fans, but the Lakers have a pretty good following despite how awful they are.
Last year during the playoffs, I went to a bar during the Clippers 15 point meltdown. This was a supposed "Clippers" bar, but you could hear a few fans yelling FUCK THE CLIPPERS, LAKERS, etc. On the streets, you'll see 6 Laker hats or shirts for every piece of Clipper gear. We're as fair weather as any other large city, but LA loves its Lakers.

Nah we don't really care about sports. We're more worried about sports fucking up our already fucked commute. Dodger Stadium and the Staples Center are next to our worst freeway in the city, the 110.

Shit even College Football is sometimes a big deal where the city posts signs reminding people that the Rosebowl will be packed and to plan accordingly.
