The NFL regular season is over, playoffs begin shortly, however, much focus is on which team(s) will be relocating to LA. There is a sense of urgency in the NFL amongst the owners to get this resolved. No surprise there, the expeditious manner of how this is being treated takes into consider the emotional and financial nature of the situation. Out of the 32 owners in the league, 24 votes are required in order for the decision to be made. Speculation is that the decision will be made within the next two weeks. The three teams in question (in case you have been living under a rock) are the San Diego Chargers, St.Louis Rams and Oakland Raiders. Each of these teams have called LA home at one time or another. The Raiders have flip-flopped. Originally the Raiders called Oakland home from 1960-1981, the organization moved to LA where they became the LA Raiders from 1982-1994. Consequently, the organization moved back to the Bay area and once again became the Oakland Raiders until present. The St. Louis Rams also have their respective history in Los Angeles. The Rams originated in Cleveland, moved to LA in 1946 where they remained until 1994 when they moved out to St. Louis. The Chargers spent their first season in LA in 1960, however, moved down south to San Diego where they have inhabited …show more content…

Nonetheless, it is no secret that LA is entertainment first. Film will always be number one in Hollywood, passionate sports fans are difficult to come by. Will the lack of sports fans affect the ticket sales for the upcoming team(s)? Hardly. LA has plenty of transplants that will go to see their respective teams play. Hollywood types will flock to be seen and take selfies. Corporate types will own the dozens and dozens of opulent luxury boxes that fill the stadium(s). Tourists will seek to experience an NFL game in Los Angeles. Maybe, just maybe after some of the bitterness wears off, Raider, Charger, or Rams fans will travel to LA to see the team they

The biggest percentage of shared revenue is generated from the league’s national television agreements. TV rights fees will grow to $4.9 billion in 2014 and will increase again in 2015 once DirecTV’s agreement is extended.

Proper management of ticket scalping situations is vital to any and all teams and/or organizations. Someone working in the sports field to reduce risks should be aware of the regulations of ticket scalping in each and every state. Teams especially need to be on the lookout for people illegally scalping their tickets, as the Patriots did (a RARE circumstance where they can be commended for doing something right).

The city and the capital of the great state of California dates back to 1839 when a man named John Sutter created a small rugged town that he would use for farming and business opportunities.

When the city was first established, it consisted of small shanty shacks and poorly constructed wooden buildings.

What I don’t agree with is cities giving massive tax breaks to teams that build new multi-billion dollar stadiums. We will never see the Yankee’s leave New York. Teams like the Yankees would be able to pay for a new stadium in a short amount of time and still provide jobs for the citizens. If athletes really wanted to win they would play for the league minimum and allow room for other great athletes to be able to play for the same team. Thanks for the post!

The Olympics almost always cause negative economic effects for cities. Although cities expect to earn revenue through the Olympics, not many cities generate a substantial amount of revenue. Los Angeles, the host city of the 1984 Olympics, is a rare example of a city profiting from the Olympics: “Los Angeles actually profited by $100 million from the 1984 Summer Olympics mostly by using existing stadiums” (Perryman 17). That city did generate money, but cities
