this is WHY the raiders will never be allowed back into LA again.
The Los Angeles Raiders 8211 ENOUGH ALREADY
ANYBODY BUT THE RAIDERS… – Mention the Raiders to Angelenos, and the reactions are usually ones of rapidly shaking heads, sour grimaces, and eye rolling. “Not the Raiders!” “Anyone but the Raiders!” Speaking to LAPD cops recently at USC’s spring game, a veteran of the force said emphatically, “I’ll retire before I ever patrol another Raider game!”
Instead of the outlaw brand that they had inherited from their days in Oakland, by the late 1980’s, the classic Silver and Black was now the preferred apparel worn prominently by gang members in Southern California. Raider games at the Coliseum were often the site of brawls within the crowd. This infamously carried over to Anaheim Stadium in a 1994 game when the Rams and Raiders faced off in their final ‘Battle of Los Angeles.’
must see video.
So LA does not want the Raiders?? Wondering why. Am sure you can tell me??
No neither the city of LA or the owners want the Raiders back in LA. The owners dont want the Raiders back there cause they dont like the Davis family.
The city doesnt want them there because they dont know how to behave.Thats why Businesses dont want them there because their fans were always starting fights in the stands.
Howie Long and many of the Raider players said they stopped taking their familys to games because of that,that they feared for the safety of the lives of their family members..It was mostly gang members and thugs that embraced the Raiders when they were there. there would be KNIFE fights in the stands. USC and UCLA even told the NFL that the Raiders would not be allowed to use their facility while waiting for the new stadium.
Oakland fans to this day get an unfair bad rap because of the behaviour of the LA fans. Here listen to this video,you can see the difference between LA Ram fans and LA Raider fans is like night and day.lol you also hear in that video a lady say the same thing I mentioned how Howie Long and other Raider players stopped taking their familys to games, the OAKLAND fans are actually much closer to these Rams fans in that video the way they behave.THEY are civilized.

some more pesky facts that makes me laugh so hard when the LA Raider trolls like to say LA is Raider country.
There is also the fact that despite the fact they had won a superbowl in oakland their last year in oakland before moving to LA,the attendance for their first game in LA was only a little over 42,000.

then the year they won the superbowl out there in LA,the next year for their home opener,they only drew a small measely crowd of just slightly over 44,000. what did the Rams draw for their season opener that same year? a sellout crowd of over 65,ooo which was impressive since they were playing in a baseball stadium. the OAKLAND Raiders might have won a superbowl out there in LA,but nobody in LA cared.

then there is ALSO the fact that dan dierdorf said about a year ago that in the entire time that he was a broadcaster for monday night football games when the Raiders were in LA,none of their home games were ever televised because they drew so poorly.

All of their monday night games were on the ROAD because of that.
The Rams on the other hand,they drew so well in LA that they had several DOZENS of monday night home games televised in the 70's and 80's.
then there is the Rally that Raider fans had at the LA coliseum last year to try and gather support for the return of the Raiders to hollywood. Guess how many turned out? a little over a 100.
Guess how many the RAMS had in their rally a few weeks earlier? over a 1000. so much for the myth the Raiders rule LA.


the Raider trolls in LA then start grasping at straws saying they see people in Raider shirts in LA all the time but never see anybody wearing Rams jerseys.Okay THAT might be true but they forget to mention thats because their Raider at least stayed in california and did not move clear across the country to relocate.
Lets just see how faitful those LA raider trolsl would be if THEIR team moved clear across the country and they had to cheer for them that far away,not happening.
