RunMickeyRun02 Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 I know they do this to save money on land and taxes and such, but one of my pet peeves is teams not being named after the actual place the team is in. This goes a step farther by naming the stadium "LA Stadium" even though it will be in Carson. Cowboys in Arlington 9ers in Santa Clara Giants/Jets in East Rutherford New Jersey etc. Other than irking my pet peeve it would be interesting to see teams in the same division share a stadium, most teams that share a stadium aren't even in the same conference Jets/Giants, White Sox/Cubs, Mets/Yankees I'm sure there are more examples.

Mavric Posted February 20, 2015 Author Share Posted February 20, 2015 I see what you're saying but in your examples, only the Jets & Giants share a stadium. Also, they did speculate that the Raiders would be swapped into the NFC if this happens. Not sure who they'd swap with but I doubt it would be the Seahawks (although that would put them back in their original division) or 49ers so probably Cardinals or Rams. 1 Quote Link to comment
huskerfan92 Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 As a Chargers fan...... My personal opinion is this will never happen, and it's simply the Chargers ownership putting pressure on the city to get a new stadium deal done. However, it's a very uneasy time right now the NFL would lose a fan if they left San Diego. Quote Link to comment

Cubs and Sox don't share a stadium.... Cubs are north side and Sox are south. Quote Link to comment
