Chargers & Raiders Looking into a Shared Stadium in Los Angeles

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.

 
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.

 
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.

Cubs and Sox don't share a stadium.... Cubs are north side and Sox are south.
