NFL Raiders Worth $3 Billion With Privately Financed Oakland Stadium
NFL Raiders Worth $3 Billion With Privately Financed Oakland Stadium
The Oakland Raiders are worth $3 billion with a new privately financed stadium in Oakland. That is more than they would be valued at in Carson, California. The Oakland Raiders have been working at once to stay in Oakland, but also to be part of a two-team NFL stadium planned for Carson, California. The basic assumption has been that Los Angeles is a more valuable region than the San Francisco Bay Area, and in particular Oakland and the East Bay Area. But a look at per capita gross metropolitan economic product, as well as a specific private stadium proposal in Oakland and at the Coliseum, reveals the Raiders would be worth $3 billion if they stayed in Oakland under the scenario you are about to see. The information is important, considering the NFL process for allowing the Raiders to leave Oakland, as stated in its franchise relocation policy. The Raiders are required to offer a “statement of reasons” for wanting to leave Oakland. It appears that one of those reasons would have to be listed as “desire to be in a region where it would be worth less than in Oakland.” That, coupled with any negative representations of Raider Nation in Oakland and in Northern California would be a public relations disaster. It's also important because the parties working on the NFL Carson project in LA don't have a fiscal picture that's that attractive to the Raiders – the team would be sharing a stadium with the San Diego Chargers, that and considering the rather substandard number of luxury suites proposed gives us a scenario where the Raiders down there in LA would only have half ownership of a $1.7 billion stadium and that would come to $850 million. Moreover, the Carson location is part of a metropolitan area that is ranked 17th in per capita gross metropolitan product, where San Francisco and San Jose are ranked number 3 and number 1, and Oakland - which was not part of the Bloomberg survey - sits in between them. That means the Bay Area has more spending money than the LA basin and by a wide margin. Looking At The Stadium Numbers Since the Raiders don't own the Oakland Coliseum, and are worth $1.45 billion, we can conservatively add that to the LA stadium value and come to this figure: $2.3 billion. By contrast, in Oakland, the stadium plan concept that Oakland Raiders Owner Mark Davis asked me to come up with adds up to significant gains for the Silver and Black. The stadium, as well as a stadium for the Oakland A's, would be paid for via an industrial development lease revenue bond issue structure. That means no public subsidy or bond default backing by the government. The new stadium itself is at $900 million in Oakland, so the Raiders are already $50 million ahead in Oakland. The Raiders wing of the hotel is part owned by the team, and so that portion comes in at about $80 million. That base of property pushes the Raiders up by $980 million – and that does not even take in expected revenue streams. Right there, when we add in the base of $1.45 billion, that is $2.43 billion. The overall expected 40 year revenue stream to the Raiders in Oakland is $2.8 billion and that is from the stadium, alone and does not include NFL revenue sources or team sponsorship or merchandise sales. But the spreadsheet number comes to $69 million annually. Add that to the $2.43 billion and we have $3.12 billion. So the question remains: if the Raiders are considering a move out of Oakland and to a situation where they are sharing a stadium, it's clear staying in Oakland and using some deal structure close to what I have come up with is better. It also damages any “statement of reasons” the Raiders would give in a relocation filing. In fact, it would make them look, well, you know. Stay tuned.

YouTube CES 2016: Which YouTube Creators Will Be In Vegas? #CES2016
YouTube, by my estimation, will be very visible at CES 2016. In fact, between the keynote speech planned by Robert Clyncl and appearances by iJustine and Joey Graffaca, I have a feeling that is just the tip of a large iceberg of YouTubers. I will be there, for example. But what about other YouTubers? Will you be there? I think all of us should plan a time to meetup! So let me know you are coming to Vegas!

Donald Trump had an American Bald Eagle in his office in August and the grand bird, perhaps sensing he was not an American Patriot, reacted to him with anger.

Arkansas State Univ Shooter Bradley Bartelt's Bad Mental State On Facebook
Arkansas State Univ Shooter Bradley Bartelt's Bad Mental State On Facebook
Bradley Kenneth Bartelt is the almost Arkansas State Univ Shooter who surrendered to police earlier today. His Facebook page under Bradley Bartelt of Jonesboro, Arkansas paints a picture he gave us of a cry for help, presenting a declining mental state - one that's all too often common for some middle aged white men today in America. So, while we focus on Muslims and Illegal Immigrants, the one group that is in need of real help and symphathy are the Bradley Kenneth Bartelt's of the World. A look at his Facebook page shows that in 2014 when the 47 year old started posting, his first entries were personal and about his kids and the outings he took with them. In September of last year he reported that his relationship was "Complicated" but then on August 21st of this year, he wrote that he was "separated". It was just around that time Bradley Kenneth Bartelt's Facebook postings turned political and in support of the use of guns and the confederate flag. His last posting yesterday and before the appearance at Arkansas State University, read this way: Need Assistance ! Have Federal Judge "John Goree" of Social Security Administration mis-stating, changing n falsifying medical records documented over 22 times!!! Have multiple Civil Rights Violations of Federal Workforce, Arkansas University and several Arkansas Dept. of, all resulting from 8/22/12 accident at A.S.U. Newport!! Have multiple Malpractice/Ethics/Misconduct of Medical and other Professionals also all documented!!! NO ONE will even read much less touch or help due to FEAR OF GOVERNMENTAL consequences!!! Told multiple professionals and people in State of Arkansas I AM SUICIDAL and now HOMICIDAL, which is what appears they want so problem goes away, thought I would DIE from injures or kill myself by now!!! Any and ALL assistance as well as passing this on to everyone you know would be appreciated!!! This story is True, Documented and does not need to covered up, but put into the Light. MY DEATH should not and will not end the TRUTH!!! I already died twice as result of accident, if necessary let my last DEATH be for a purpose!!! Let the TRUTH and JUSTICE be shown. IF NOT IN THIS LIFE, SURELY IN THE NEXT! GOD BLESS n PROTECT US ALL!!! It was a clear warning and a cry for help. I hope he gets the treatment he needs and it's good no one was harmed. But his case is not unusual. It's much like Dylan Root, who, at 21, had the same bad mental mix of inability to have a female relationship, conservative radical political views, and in roots case, white supremacist involvement and display of the confederate flag. Something is clearly wrong and I say it's our economic employment structure and the lack of well-paying low-skilled jobs that's at fault. Not everyone can be a programmer but we send the message that everyone has to be. In the 1960s, we had a goal of a job for all regardless of skill level. We need to return to that idea.
