I;m not the one who tries to talk about I know...0...about, that's your thing.
Since I currently dont give a about football, it would give me a reason to support a team, so yes. The Spurs would still always be numero uno en mi corazon though tbh

They rabidly put the Raiders dead last in attendance last season.
I wonder why?

It looks like Magic is now exerting his influence on Davis and insulting San Antonio and the Spurs in the process, to the point it has riled up Ice to strike back verbally in defense.
Even though I am a niner fan, if SA gets its own team, you better believe I will have season tickets. I will still have love for the Niners, but I gotta go with what is most accessible.
Adding fuel to that fire was the presence in Oxnard of Hollywood power player Michael Ovitz, who joined Davis and Jerry Jones while they were speaking to reporters on Tuesday. Ovitz has formulated plans to build a stadium in downtown Los Angeles that could conceivably house two NFL teams — the San Diego Chargers and St. Louis Rams are the other teams who could move — and Jones gushed about the proposed arena on Tuesday.
But as Jason La Canfora reported Tuesday, any Raiders franchise in Los Angeles might not have the Davis family involved with it.
“The NFL, however, would prefer to give another ownership group the rights to Los Angeles — make no mistake, the road to LA goes through the league office in New York — as the Davis family already pulled out of Southern California once, and Davis doesn’t have the real estate, marketing and overall business expertise the league would demand for the coveted market,” La Canfora wrote.
Jones, of course, wants nothing to do with a team relocating to Texas and thus possibly stealing his team’s thunder, so his boosterism for a team or teams in Los Angeles is easily explainable. But still, Jones has the ears of the league’s other owners, and his voice likely will carry great weight.

Davis probably has the least cash of any NFL owner. in a salary cap league its not a big deal, but when it comes to a stadium, he might be SOL
This is why the smart choice would be to come to San Antonio and let the Spurs do his marketing for him IMHO.
he could also move to LA and buy out some of the minority shareholders
I dont think there is a chance this would happen I'm pretty sure they would go to LA, but if it did I would fully support them especially if they under the helm of some of the Spurs owners.
ONLY if the Spurs take 100% control of them. And they must change their name, their culture, and everything else about their ty team and organization. And their owner needs to stay the out of the way of the new coach and GM that will be hired.
Those are the conditions. Otherwise, I'm sticking with basketball and the Spurs and will refuse to watch a BAD NFL team play who's trying to take over our city.
I've read that is why he isn't seen as an ideal owner for an LA team. They want a larger than life owner to take advantage of the markets potential, apparently.
San Antonio Spurs will always be our number 1 team in S. A. IMHO, but we can still have an NFL team too.
the idea is since an LA stadium will be privately funded, he's going to have to sell a certain amount of the team to the investing group
And he only owns 47% as is. That's why I think people that dismiss this bc LA is being mentioned are just being pessimists. If they do relocate SA is the smart bet IMO.
What other city is there? When we've been snubbed in recent years it's a team deciding to stay pat, not relocate somewhere else.
That's a realistic assessment, unlike what the trolls will have as you can see from the post above yours.
I'll take your bet
