Raiders Working On Oakland NFL New Coliseum Stadium Cost Study
Raiders Working On Oakland NFL New Coliseum Stadium Cost Study
Raiders Working On Oakland NFL New Coliseum Stadium Cost Study Many of you have asked about the meeting that took place between Oakland City Administrator Claudia Cappio and new Oakland Raiders business affairs representative and point person Larry McNeil that took place three weeks ago now, and where the news about that was broken here at Zennie62.com. Well, after conversations this week and on Thursday, I can now tell you that the Raiders are working on a new stadium cost analysis study for a facility at the Coliseum. The news of that study work by the Raiders was told by Ms. Cappio to Oakland officials and County of Alameda Officials and Coliseum JPA Officials last week. I was told by several leaders that they don't know when the report by the Raiders will be finished. This also does not clear up the new problem where the Oakland and East Bay Officials learned the Raiders duped them into thinking they were just waiting for the NFL's LA decision in January, and were not going to meet on any plans for a new stadium in Oakland until after that January Houston meeting, and after a new Coliseum lease was signed. That was done on April 27th of 2016. But the Raiders Las Vegas stadium plans had gathered life and steam between the time Oakland officials were told to wait and the April 27th date. Now, this news of the Las Vegas plans being set in motion as far back as perhaps December of last year brings up a new set of issues regarding good faith bargaining. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1Ti2EujZaw) While Oakland public leaders are not pleased about that news, and NFL guidelines clearly prohibit such behavior, they are also now obviously working with Mark Davis and his people on a new home in Oakland - as well as one in Las Vegas. Let the games begin - well, they really already started.

Oakland Raiders Fooled City Of Oakland: Officials Not Told Of Las Vegas Plans, Asked To Wait For NFL
Oakland Raiders Fooled City Of Oakland: Officials Not Told Of Las Vegas Plans, Asked To Wait For NFL
Oakland Raiders Fooled City Of Oakland: Officials Not Told Of Las Vegas Plans, Asked To Wait For NFL In January of this year, and just as the National Football League was meeting in Houston to determine which NFL team was going to be granted the right to move to Los Angeles, the Oakland Raiders had informed the City of Oakland and the County of Alameda (or 'East Bay Entities') that no more meetings on a new stadium would be scheduled until after the Owners meeting and when a new Coliseum lease was signed by all parties. The East Bay Entities were under the impression the Raiders were waiting out the NFL, and not working on plans to move to another city. But this letter from UNLV President Len Jessup and uploaded originally by Las Vegas Journalist Aubrey Clerkin on January 28th 2016, (http://ift.tt/1YHC6WM) provides clear evidence that the Raiders Owner Mark Davis had already set in motion the Las Vegas Stadium plans - my conversations with officials representing the East Bay Entities over the past day revealed they were completely in the dark regarding what the Raiders were really doing at the time. The NFL's Relocations Bylaws have a paragraph that reads as follows: Negotiations Prior to League Consideration 1. Because League policy favors stable team community relations, clubs are obligated to work diligently and in good faith to obtain and to maintain suitable stadium facilities in their home territories, and to operate in a manner that maximizes fan support in their current home community. A club may not, however, grant exclusive negotiating rights to a community or potential stadium landlord other than one in its current home territory." The third paragraph states that a club may talk to another community about relocating: "The League’s policy and procedures on franchise relocation do not restrict any club’s ability to discuss a possible relocation, or to negotiate a proposed lease or other arrangements, with a community outside its home territory. Nor do they restrict the ability of multiple clubs to negotiate terms of a proposed relocation with a single community' But since the NFL says that new stadium negotiations with the home city are to be done in "good faith", the question is what's the legal definition of good faith. It's this: "honest intent to act without taking an unfair advantage over another person or to fulfill a promise to act, even when some legal technicality is not fulfilled. The term is applied to all kinds of transactions." From my talks with East Bay Officials, it's clear they were caught unaware of the Raiders actions with respect to Las Vegas, and were essentially going along with what the NFL team had told them it was going to do: not meet on plans for a new stadium until after the NFL made its LA decision and a new Coliseum lease was signed, which was on April 27th. The question is was the NFL aware of how the Raiders were treating the City of Oakland and the East Bay Entities as it was making its Las Vegas plans? It's obvious the Silver and Black were not dealing in good faith with Oakland, and the reaction of public executives I have talked to reveals that, even though they did not wish to go on the record with a statement at this time. -- Zennie Abraham, Jr.: Phone: 510-517-7565 Executive Producer: Zennie62.com Chairman and CEO: Zennie62Media.com Subscribe to Zennie62 on YouTube.com: http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=zennie62 _______________________________ Chairman and CEO Sports Business Simulations Visit http://zennie62blog.com Zennie Abraham is one of the first generation of YouTube Partners going back to 2006, and made partner in 2008.

Carson Wentz Booed By Eagles Fan Minutes After Arriving In Philly
Carson Wentz Booed By Eagles Fan Minutes After Arriving In Philly
PHILADELPHIA, PA – Eagles fans are notorious for being some of the most ruthless fans in the NFL, throwing eggs and batteries at opposing teams bushes, cursing out both other team’s and their own players, and most notably, booing more than they spend time clapping. What a better warm welcome to the city of brotherly love than a few boos moments after arriving in his new home town. After landing in Philadelphia from Chicago, the newest Eagles QB and 2nd overall pick was swarmed by a few unforgiving fans looking for autographs. Though continuing to ask even after being told to back off by team security, they kept pushing, going as far as calling Wentz a “prick” and booing him after getting into the transport vehicle. CBS 3 Philly Sports Director Don Bell captured the video:

Las Vegas Oakland Raiders NFL Stadium Tax Subsidy Is $1 Billion
Las Vegas Oakland Raiders NFL Stadium Tax Subsidy Is $1 Billion
Las Vegas Oakland Raiders NFL Stadium Tax Subsidy Is $1 Billion If the Nevada Government somehow does the unthinkable and grants Oakland Raiders Owner Mark Davis and his partners hotel casino billionaire Sheldon Adelson and Majestic Realty the $780 million transient occupancy tax subsidy their proposal to build an NFL stadium calls for, that will trigger another tax subsidy Majestic wants. The total tax subsidy for the stadium project would then come up a conservative estimate of $1 billion. The reason for this is Majestic Realty has remarked that it would need a tax increment financing revenue district to recover costs. Given the proposal, that means the stadium would be part of the TIF district and if the bond issue designed to be the use of the TIF revenue were floated, the annual increment revenue over a 30 year or 40 year period would be around $200 million according to my calculations. $780 million plus $200 million comes to $980 million. That would be the largest subsidy ever given to the builders of an NFL stadium in history. The question is what does the NFL itself think of this giant cost to the public? That is a question I will raise at the NFL Spring League Meeting next week. Stay tuned.
