[Halladay]

This is going to be weird.

 

[Falco Lombardi]

What a mess.

 

[TNT87]

Have the Raiders play in a different stadium and city every week during the season. It could be like a tour.

 

[StreetHawk]

LV stadium is supposed to be finished by August of 2020. So, just 1 more year. But, yeah, it's going to be odd to play in that stadium.

 

[Terry Yake]

cool can they tear down mt. davis now?

 

[BKIslandersFan]

What a joke. NFL should have forced Davis to pay to have Sam Boyd upgraded temporarily and play there from get go.

 

[Voight]

Was Levi's stadium out of the question?

 

[GKJ]

At least the Raiders will give us some picturesque games on their way out the door

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

One positive is Raider fans can still travel to see team for one more year before they are long gone in Vegas

 

[GKJ]

I think you'll still get a very good presence in Vegas. I'm sure there's a bunch of LA Raiders fans who made the trips, some every week, to Oakland, more will make the trip to Vegas, and Oakland fans don't seem to be negative to the Raiders moving, and some of them will make trips, too. Those people didn't exactly need another reason to make a trip to Vegas.

Congrats on your new home team, SF!

 

[MAHJ71]

Wonder how much $ this took..

 

[Fixed to Ruin]

Weird place to play a football game.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

That seems like a disaster in the making. San Francisco fans aren't going to show up and how many beatings does the Oakland fanbase receive before they finally give up on the team? The Raiders already dumped you, Raiders fans, they just haven't fully moved out yet. You continually giving them money isn't going to change their minds and only gives them capital to spend in Vegas.

They'll be "Our Raiders"

The true America's Team.

 

[YEM]

does feel right to see the Raiders, once again [in 2019 no less] playing pro football on a field with a dirt baseball diamond

Willie Mays
Barry Bonds
Willie McCovey

Mark Davis

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

I've watched a college game there. It sucks for football. One end zone is so close to the crowd it isn't funny.

49ers and NFL still have to approve this before it happens.

 

[GKJ]

XFL played there years ago

 

[BKIslandersFan]

Congrats on your new home team, SF!

After 5 years NFL returns to San Francisco!

Weird place to play a football game.

My buddy's summer job in 2001 was bringing people drinks in the club section.

It's a beautiful baseball stadium, I wish Petco had the views that you get from the upper deck.

 

[EpochLink]

Eh I'll live with this.
When I visited back in 2017, there were Raiders fans in SF all over the place for the game against the Broncos.

I can deal with it.

 

[BKIslandersFan]

With temporary bleachers that actually looks better than Coliseum.

 

[Troy McClure]

Do they roll out artificial turf for football?
