LA doesn't need a new team because they already have one, the Raiders. If Magic Johnson is going to pursue a an NFL team for LA, he needs to speak for what the majority of the fanbase are, Raider's fans. Not Chargers (hated division rivals), 49ers (hated bay rivals), or any other nfl team (why there would be any other baffles me (band wagon fans). It'll be a complete waste of time and money to try unsuccessfully to build a fanbase for a new sports team in Los Angeles. LA Kings, LA Dodgers, LA Lakers, and LA Raiders all sound great!

Do we really need two ineptly managed pro sports franchises in LA? We already have the Clippers, and the Raiders are going to be abominable as long as Al Davis is alive.

We don't need the NFL.

Oakland can keep the traders. There are better teams available.
Change the team colors to pink and see how many fans they have.

LA Raiders is the team that many in LA grew up cheering for. The Raiders have that LA personality.

Why steal the Raiders; a team that originally started in Oakland and played the majority of their years in Oakland. How about the St. Louis Rams? Now they belong back here in L.A.!

The Raiders will win the Super bowl within the next 5 yrs, bring them to L.A. again, I don't think Al Davis will last another 5 yrs though.
