What Carolina Panthers Loss To Atlanta Falcons Says About Atlanta

What Carolina Panthers Loss To Atlanta Falcons Says About Atlanta
The Carolina Panthers bid to go undefeated said more about the Atlanta Falcons than it did about the Carolina Panthers. It said that the Falcons losing streak was borne of a run of bad coaching where the staff (and I like head coach Dan Quinn a lot) was inflexible in the game plans that were put together. What worked for them over their five and oh streak the next opponents studied and so it did not work for them for the season. The Falcons finally made adjustments and so they performed much better.

Oakland Raiders NFL Stadium Games With Mayor Schaaf May Backfire #RaiderNation
Oakland Raiders NFL Stadium Games With Mayor Schaaf May Backfire Mark Davis and the Oakland Raiders are playing a risky game with Oakland Mayor Libby Schaaf, who has skillfully courted a favorable relationship with NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and some NFL Owners. The City, County, and Coliseum JPA heads have worked with the Raiders to come up with a formula but Mark Davis has seemingly tried to move the ball on them and get public money that really doesn't have to be used for the Raiders stadium. It seems the Raiders are going to file for relocation. Whether the NFL accepts the application is another story. In my spreadsheet I was able to carve out $2.7 billion in revenue for the Raiders. So I know a deal can be done and moreover lets get this out of the way: don't be a fool and think the Raiders have $500 million in their pocket for a stadium. I believed that when it was at $400 million but then I started doing the math myself and realized he was talking about money the stadium plan itself could generate. That was when I realized how much of a game this is. The Raiders seem to think people so don't understand stadium finance that they will not see the truth and for the most part they are right. Davis is betting he has the votes to move but a friend of mine who is a high level executive told me that no one has any idea what is going to happen in Houston. Mark is playing a dangerous game. With Raiders fans. With Mayor Schaaf. With the NFL. If he fails he has to return to Oakland with his tail between his legs. Why be in that position? Stay tuned.

Hoku's Restaurant Gets Obama Visit, White House Press Pool Shout Out

Hoku's Restaurant Gets Obama Visit, White House Press Pool Shout Out
Hoku's Restaurant Gets Obama Visit, White House Press Pool Shout Out President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama and friends visited Hoku's Restaurant on Sunday. It's located at 5000 Kahala Avenue in Honolulu at the Kahala Hotel. The White House Press Pool was along for the visit and Gardiner Harris of The New York Times posted this hilarious account: Subject: Long dinner's journey into night. Pool #10. After dining for nearly 4.5 hours, POTUS, FLOTUS and friends have emerged. Motorcade is rolling. Hoku's Restaurant bills itself as one of the finest restaurants on the island, and "is heralded for its innovative fusion fare which melds Hawaiian, Asian, Mediterranean and European flavors," which covers about three-quarters of the globe. The dinner menu included local fish, Maine lobster, Denver bison and Texas wild boar. "Collared shirts and slacks for men and evening attire for women are preferred," the restaurant avers. "Shorts and tank-top style t-shirts are not allowed." There was a fake waterfall just outside the small ballroom that housed your pool. The ocean could be glimpsed with some effort. You will be pleased to know that after a hard day staring at the great vastness of the Pacific Ocean, your pool was well fed. There was chicken in black truffle sauce, mashed potatoes with sautéed mushrooms and onions, and an unusually good bread pudding. Your pooler fears the entire pool may have ingested gluten. Several tested the hotel's wine cellar. Brendan Smialowski of AFP seemed particularly fond of the red, a shy Chianti from the Amalfi Coast. But they say shakey camera work is a la mode now. The bill for this fare could be considerable, but your pooler's conscience is clear, given the day's challenging circumstances. A quick shout-out to the local talent in today's pool, who told the rest of us how to pronounce various landmarks and where to go (and more importantly, NOT go) for off-day dining needs. They are Hugh Gentry and Jeff Warner of Reuters, Marco Garcia of AP, Nifae Hunkin of Bloomberg. Gardiner Harris White House Correspondent The New York Times

Oakland Raiders SD Chargers Carson NFL LA Stadium Will Price Out Raider Nation

Oakland Raiders SD Chargers Carson NFL LA Stadium Will Price Out Raider Nation
Oakland Raiders SD Chargers Carson NFL LA Stadium Will Price Out Raider Nation The proposed Raiders Chargers NFL LA Stadium will be too expensive for Raider Nation to afford. Personal Seat Licenses of $15,000 and luxury box average costs of $200,000 and north are levels Raider fans have not seen. Indeed considering the highest-in-America underemployment rate in Los Angeles, there is nothing to suggest that LA is able to support the pricing structure that has been established. It's once thing to be able to secure a $400 million naming rights agreement but teams only use part of that for stadium construction - ticket prices are adjusted to help pay for seat licenses. Plus, there's no indication a $700 million naming rights agreement deal can be done a second time around and look: no one has stepped up to do one as of now! Carson will be the most expensive stadium ever built in NFL History and for a region that has gone untested with respect to ticket prices and teams. If I were the Oakland Raiders and Chargers and the NFL, I would ask is the risk of losing my fan base worth it? Because that is what will happen. If it's approved.
