It’s sort of amazing how often professional sports teams have just up and moved out for a better deal, sometimes leaving generations of loyal fans behind.
I was in Cleveland in 1995 when the Browns were preparing to move to Baltimore to become the Baltimore Ravens. The Baltimore Colts had moved to Indianapolis years before. Baltimore had first tried to get the Los Angeles Rams (originally the Cleveland Rams) but they went to St. Louis instead, and then back to Los Angeles 21 years later. Anyway the Browns left, and Cleveland then got an expansion team which became the “new” Browns in 1999. Part of the deal was that the team records, colors, identity–and, of course, all of their Super Bowl trophies–remained in Cleveland. I wouldn’t make stuff like this up.
The Brooklyn Dodgers moved to Los Angeles. The New York Giants moved to San Francisco. The Chicago Cardinals moved to St. Louis and then to Phoenix. The Oakland Raiders moved to Los Angeles, and then back. The Dallas Cowboys moved across town to Arlington. The Houston Oilers moved to Nashville, becoming the Tennessee Titans. The list goes on and on, and it’s the same with basketball, hockey, soccer, and other sports; and not just in the U.S. but all over the world. It’s far more common than I ever imagined before I started this post. That says a lot about city, owner, player, and fan loyalty; and even about the fundamental role of professional sports in our culture.
But I think in the end it’s mostly about money; and then mostly tax money. Many if not most of these moves involved new stadiums; which are important largely for the jobs and economic stimulus they provide while being built. Nobody gives much thought to long-term viability. In the Cleveland/Baltimore story alone, three new stadiums were built and one was demolished (which also cost a bundle) so that millionaires could play football and baseball, and billionaire owners could watch them from their skyboxes. And the taxpayers paid for it all. Well, not quite all: banks, insurance companies, public utilities, and hospitals–and ultimately their customers–paid for the various naming rights.

Oh man… This stadium is going to completely bottle-neck accessing the strip. God help drivers…

In reply to Phonics Steve. Indeed! We all have occasional typos, but some of these comments are so poorly written it's hard to understand them.

In reply to Mervis. Yeah right!!! The NFL in Las Vegas I for one found a new reason to come to Las Vegas. Not everyone shares your opinion on professional sports. Do you really believe that the stadium will only be used for football games? Just like hockey I think there is plenty of room for a NFL team. I’m pretty excited for Las Vegas to get the Super Bowl too.

Taxpayers are being bamboozled. Follow the campaign contributions to the commissioners and consulting gigs to their families.

Los Angeles stadium is a larger project more capacity and looks much better than Vegas!

Some of these responses make me question if English is even their second language.
