Why is the NFL Moving a Team to Los Angeles?

It’s all about the money. Building a $2 Billion stadium is in the financial best interest of the NFL.

The NFL (National Football League) and its 32 teams took in an estimated $12 billion in 2014, a 14.3% jump from the previous year’s estimated total of $10.5 billion.

As of September 2015 the New England Patriots annual revenue was $494 Million. Their income $195 Million. Seats in the stadium cost $130 each. That is in a metropolitan area of 4.2 million people.

Consider the Los Angeles/Orange County population of over 13 million people. The fan base will bring even higher seat prices and merchandise sales that the Patriots can only dream about.

$$$ The NFL is a smart business. The owners of those clubs see big dollar signs. $$$

Power outage at the Super Bowl

The 49ers were asleep for the entire first half of the game. We all know that the Silicon Valley crowd would be rooting for San Francisco. It’s a good bet that during the half time show those wise guy nerds on Technology Drive in San Jose quickly devised a virus that would shut down the power feed to the Super Dome.

Their theory was that the 49ers might wake up. But alas, the Ravens were too powerful to stop. A galant effort by the nerds.
