  • Business Insights Going for the NFL Gold Looking at the Bottom Line, It Seems Almost Inevitable the Chargers Will Follow the Money Trail out of Town
    Business Insights Going for the NFL Gold Looking at the bottom line, it seems almost inevitable the Chargers will follow the money trail out of town. By Mike Drummond In the world of professional sports, nothing lasts forever. Dynasties come and go, as do players—in the case of Ryan Leaf, thankfully so. Teams, like players, follow the money. Art Modell, owner of the storied Cleveland Browns, gave loyal fans the proverbial finger when he moved his team to Baltimore in 1995 because that city was willing to buy him a new stadium packed with cash-generating luxury seating and other high-end amenities. That same year, the Raiders and the Rams abandoned Los Angeles for Oakland and St. Louis, respectively. The National Football League makes no secret that it wants a professional team back in Los Angeles. The City of Angels is the nation’s second-largest fan and media market, an all-important factor for the NFL, which shares television revenue equally among the 32 clubs. Although the L.A. group that initially courted the Chargers earlier this year has since backed off, interests there are still hunting for a professional team. So are civic leaders in San Antonio, Las Vegas and even Birmingham, Alabama, for that matter. But Los Angeles is where the NFL gold is buried. So it should surprise no one if sooner, rather than later, the San Diego Chargers organization rekindles its for-now-aborted courtship with Los Angeles. The Los Angeles Chargers.
