En masse is like 5,000-10,000 people (Vegas stadium will be 65,000 capacity I believe). That's on the low end of people from LA who are in Vegas every weekend to begin with. But that's a lot of potential customers gone who'd really rather support the other team. Obviously we'll have to see, but the Raiders are still LA's favorite team, and Raider fans are about as dedicated as it gets in the NFL. I just think them being there always made the most sense. But Kroenke wanted LA and got all the right people on his side. It is weird to think LA doesn't deserve a team, but the NFL grew by leaps and bounds without it. Not every market is meant to be, Green Bay in theory should never have been able to be as successful as they are, but here we are.
