All moved from their original cities when the team owners could not secure a new stadium deal that met their financial demands, going to cities that offered them better deals. The Raiders moved from Oakland to LA to Oakland to Las Vegas. The Rams from Cleveland to LA to St. Louis to LA The...

When the lease expiration of what is an aging and comparably small stadium approaches, Khosla will undoubtedly demonstrate why he is considered one of the most ruthless tech lords in Silicon Valley. Few things test a community like the battle over new stadiums, pitting the community tax payers...

Seahawks luck just changed, having been purchased by a total dirtbag. Some close friends lived at Martins Beach, which the public has access to since the early 1900's, second generation residents who owned the homes on leased land they had a written agreement to purchase should the owners ever...

A 'super' El Nino actually breaks down a Polar Vortex , which can allow strong winter weather systems to migrate further south with increased snowfall for Canada and the northern US.
