LA will get one of the current NFL Teams. Which team is still a great mystery. The leading candidates are :

The Oakland Raiders

The San Diego Chargers

The St.Louis Rams

Two of these teams were based in LA before. One has not been based there yet.
IMO, the team that will end up in LA will be The Rams. I see it happening within the next 5 years.

Oakland Raiders just sounds "right" so I wouldn't want them to relocate based on that minor premise.

I don't believe Chargers will relocate, nor should they.

Los Angeles Rams is what I expect to see.

St. Louis recently declined to provide financial support for a new stadium.

Moving SD north makes the most sense if they place it on the very southern end of LA where it would be more of a SoCal team, rather than LA or SD. Get support from both areas.
The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Build a new LA Stadium and market it right and LA tickets will be the hottest ticket in town.
The LA Rams will return and host a future SB game as well. Weather they compete in such a game is anyone's guess. LA and the Rams are just too good of a fit.

The Chargers may not survive in San Diego, but where they end up is yet a mystery.
The Raiders have the fan support, they just need a new Stadium. I believe that will work itself out, but it is not clear yet.

It does intrigue me that a City that had two teams and lost them both is so badly wanting to take a team from another City. Reminds me of an ex thinking the grass is greener on the other side of the fence and once realizing it is not, "hey, come back, I'm sorry!!"

Why the Rams left LA is not quite as clear. If I remember they were owned by a woman and they were managed and marketed poorly. I believe that LA would not let past mistakes reoccur again. After-all they played there for many decades before.:wav:

If LA can support another team, they could always build on the North end of LA, in both cases would make them more capable of having better entry and access than can be done more central to LA.

Rams were owned by the same woman for about 30 years 1/2 in LA 1/2 in St Louis. They left because they couldn't get a new Stadium and St. Louis was already building one.
