Lotta guys (and girls) out there with Raiders Cheerleader fantasies ... seems like a solid business move to me.

The best comment about this article:

"Do the Raiders dare hope that Malik Hooker drops to them in round one?"

I was reading how the owners stood to make 53 million (each I think) on the move of the Rams, Raiders and Chargers which boggles my mind how the vote isn't a massive conflict of interest like it would be in ANY other industry. I guess the owners are who would have to vote but all this tells me is no franchise is safe if a relocation vote comes up. the owners would essentially be voting to not give themselves money if they vote no. which is why the Raider vote was something like 31-1 in favor. whoever that 1 was has a little more respect from me

I believe it was Stephen Ross of the Dolphins who voted no. He said something about making sure it can't work in Oakland before permitting the franchise to move for another city.

Miami cast the lone no vote.
