Magic Johnson Bringing Football to L.A.?

Basketball News & NBA Rumors
Magic Johnson is ready for some football.
The Los Angeles Lakers legend, on Monday, reaffirmed his involvement and commitment to Farmers Field, Anschutz Entertainment Group’s $1.2 billion proposed football stadium in downtown Los Angeles that cleared a major legislative hurdle last week when the California State Senate passed a bill to expedite legal challenges to the project.
Johnson, who has been among the project’s most high-profile supporters, said he will be part of the ownership group that solicits a team to move to Los Angeles and play in the stadium.
“I’m going to be part of that (ownership) group. I am a part of it. We just have to see what happens once we get going,” Johnson told ESPNLosAngeles.com at an event to announce his involvement in a nationwide alternative education program to help students who are at risk of dropping out of school.
“I’m truly excited. It’s going to improve our community and help our community,” he said. “We need jobs, we need more conventions to come to our city, and then of course … I’m a football fan. I used to be a season ticket holder for the Rams and the Raiders when they played here. I want football here. I’m tired of cheering for everybody else’s team. I want to cheer for my own team.”
