Cheesehawk Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 They can call themselves whatever they would like, they will always belong to Oakland. </3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PossibleCabbage Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 I appreciate that the people of Las Vegas finally get their own NFL team, but they got the wrong one. As much as I love that Fallout game, so "Vegas Raiders" sounds right to me, hardly anyone in LA cares about the Chargers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vikes_Bolts1228 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Vegas Golden Knights and Las Vegas Raiders should switch. Las Vegas Golden Knights sounds better. As does Vegas Raiders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Las Vegas Golden Knights - though accurate geographically is too long IMO. The Las Vegas Raiders matches The New York Giants / Jets The San Francisco Niners The Los Angeles teams The New England Patriots The San Antonio Spurs Edited January 23, 2020 by Leader 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RamblinMan99 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 The league would have never allowed a team to move to Vegas in the 70s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Las Vegas Raiders matches The New York Giants / Jets The San Francisco Niners The Los Angeles teams The New England Patriots The San Antonio Spurs That's exactly the reasoning behind why they cut of the "Las" for the hockey team. Some words just sound better with the Las or just Vegas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cutler06 Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Feels like creating a "third' identity....what a Raider thing to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y*so*blu Posted January 23, 2020 Share Posted January 23, 2020 Knew it was only a matter of time. I'm not any more likely to visit Vegas than Oakland honestly, so it doesn't affect me. It just seems weird. Whatever you do, don't sign Manziel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
