Might as well change the thread title. The Vegas stadium deal passed the Nevada Assembly, and Davis more or less announced his intentions.

“I would like to thank Governor Sandoval, the Southern Nevada Tourism Infrastructure Committee, and the members of the Nevada Legislature on this historic day,” Davis said. “All parties have worked extremely hard to develop and approve this tremendous stadium project that will serve as a proud new home for the entire Raider Nation.”

Oh wow, didn't know Davis already chimed in.  Is Goodell going to oppose?  I thought he was anti-Vegas.

 

I still don't see the logic in the move.  Vegas strikes me as a transplant city, even if it technically does have the permanent population to support a team.  If tickets just wind up being comps to high rollers in casinos, the gameday atmosphere is going to be terrible there.

I'm guessing the Raiders see 750 million logical reasons for the move.

Three relocations in 13 months. While none come as a major surprise, it's not a good look.
