It's official now.

As a lifelong Chiefs fan I don't care where they are really, but I do have a suggestion. 😉 So now the question is will the NFL work in Vegas, or will they be looking to move again in 5-10 years.

I also wonder if Oakland will try to entice another team to relocate (the Bucs or Jags maybe?) or come knocking on the NFLs door for an expansion team.

Crazy to see this actually happening. Let's be honest here. The main reason they are moving is because Vegas will help pay for a stadium while Oakland wouldn't.

Having visited Oakland three times, I am not surprised that the team is moving away.

I work with a guy who is a HUGE Raiders fan, he knows I am a Chiefs fan. He wears a Raiders jacket to work and I asked him if he was going to outline the Raiders shield with sequins and put above the logo in sequins "Las Vegas" on the jacket. He just laughed.

Also be honest that the Oakland Coliseum, built in 1966, needed many, many renovations and probably needed to be bulldozed anyway.
