Some of us would have never crossed paths if it wasn't for our aligned love and passion for sports.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Leo Bazile served on the Oakland City Council during the Raiders' 12 years in Los Angeles. He told fans that in those days team owners could play Northern and Southern California against each other, and state leaders stayed out of it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"How many of you realize that the fight you're in now is between California and Nevada?\" Bazile said. \"Now every elected official in California should support this team staying here. Organize your communication, start with Jerry Brown, Gavin Newsom, Kamala Harris, and say where are you on the Raiders deal? Because the more the drums are beating, the more the politicians are going to start looking for angles.

Not surprisingly, this vote was unanimously against the move. Nick Wilson, representing the Chicago Bears expressed a common concern: \"If the NFL can do this to Oakland, it raises the question of whose team is safe? What's the point of being a fan?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That sentiment was echoed by another guest, Patrick Healy, who has founded a national group called the \u003ca href=\"http://www.fanfairness.org/\" target=\"_blank\">FanFairness Initiative\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Don't kid yourself.

It's also possible the league will postpone the vote until later this year, since Las Vegas doesn't have a draft lease agreement with the Raiders or a definite site for a stadium. He and other members of the group are staying positive and working their connections within the NFL as well as outside it. But if the worst case happens -- well, Bobbitt says, Raider fans aren't particularly renowned for their graceful acceptance of defeat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's in our blood that when people walk up to us, and they try to take something out of our hands, at a minimum they know that they've been in a fight,\" Bobbitt says. \"The last thing that's going to happen is that we'll allow the Raiders to pack up in the middle of the night, and all of us will go over to the Coliseum and burn a few jerseys and that's it. That's not going to happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We're going to take every legal action that we can to block relocation.

A new effort is underway to focus that opposition prior to any NFL vote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's why on a sunny Sunday in March, about 100 fans gathered in an Oakland hotel just down the street from the stadium where they've spent so many autumn Sundays. Instead of beers and barbecue at a tailgate, they picked up sodas and slices of pizza to accompany PowerPoint presentations and discussions of the finer points of NFL governance.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The gathering was organized by Ray Bobbitt, a local business owner who's calling his group the Oakland Coliseum Economic Impact and Legal Action Committee (OCEILAC).

"content": "\u003cp>Inside a nondescript building on the corner of East Main Street and Avocado Boulevard in El Cajon, dozens upon dozens of shiny porcelain soccer balls sit on desktops and counters. It's hard to find a level surface that isn’t playing host to a small soccer ball-shaped vase.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Instead of holding flowers, each holds writing utensils. It almost looks like an army of No.2 pencils and pens have punctured each little ball.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Welcome to \u003ca href=\"https://www.facebook.com/YALLASD/\">Yalla.\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The word means \"Let's Go!\" in Arabic, and the concept is deceptively simple: Use an existing passion to inspire learning in students. Yalla’s young participants are composed entirely of \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/02/06/three-refugees-three-journeys-to-california/\" target=\"_blank\">refugees and immigrants\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We use soccer as a hook to entice children to come in and get academic,” admits Sarah Cooper, the organization’s interim executive director. “The kids come in, and they want to play soccer.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[gallery type=\"rectangular\" ids=\"11310467,11310468,11310470,11310471\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in order to join the teams, they first have to commit to an intensive after-school study program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yalla also stands for \u003ca href=\"http://yallasd.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Youth and Leaders Living Actively\u003c/a>. The unique organization fuses a potent blend of sport and study to help participants adjust and excel at life in the United States.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The organization was founded in 2009 by Lebanese-American Mark Kabbal. His own family had fled war, and after arriving in the U.S., he quickly identified a need to better support refugee kids, particularly in Southern California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since the 1970s, San Diego County in particular has been a hot spot for refugee resettlement. More than 14,500 Iraqi refugees have been resettled here over the last eight years, and it’s estimated Iraqi-Americans now make up a third of El Cajon’s population. Today, around 40 percent of Yalla’s cohort is Iraqi.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[audio src=\"http://www.kqed.org/.stream/anon/radio/tcrmag/2017/02/2017-02-10a-tcrmag.mp3\" Image=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/Yalla-Neymar-Jr.-800x533.jpg\" Title=\"Soccer Is the Best Way to Solve Problems, Say Refugee Kids\" program=\"The California Report\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The teens and children at Yalla range in age from 6 to 18. They’re from a stew of countries that have grappled with conflict, including Congo, Sri Lanka, Pakistan, Colombia, Syria, Guatemala and Afghanistan. Approximately 1,500 kids have been helped by the program.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But despite their diverse countries of origin, the Yalla kids share a die-hard obsession: soccer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Whether they're coming from African countries like Liberia or Sudan, or coming from Latin American countries, they all play soccer,” Cooper explains wryly. “And that is something they can do together without having to share a language.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The recipe generally works well. Last year, the 20 graduating seniors raised $2.4 million in scholarships. Two were named Gates Millennium scholars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The program is funded through donations and through partnerships with the \u003ca href=\"http://www.cdss.ca.gov/refugeeprogram/PG5062.htm\">Refugee School Impact Grant Program\u003c/a> (RSIG), administered through the Cajon Valley School District and the California Department of Social Services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once in a while, tutor supervisor Zainab Salih says, kids get rowdy and have to be reprimanded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We tell them, if you don't behave, you're going to spend five extra minutes inside the academy,” she explains. “And they’re like, 'No! I can't lose the soccer time!' ”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11310469\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11310469\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/Yalla-Class-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"Zainab Salih (right) tutors Fadi Alaksan as part of the Yalla program.\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/Yalla-Class-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/Yalla-Class-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/Yalla-Class-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/Yalla-Class.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/Yalla-Class-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/Yalla-Class-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/Yalla-Class-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/Yalla-Class-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/02/Yalla-Class-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Zainab Salih (right) tutors Fadi Alaksan as part of the Yalla program. \u003ccite>(Photo by Erin Siegal McIntyre)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Salih herself is a refugee. Alongside her husband, she worked for the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in Baghdad, which she eventually fled after receiving threats.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The younger kids in the program, she says, barely remember their countries of origin.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They have no idea about Iraq,” she continues. “The older ones have stories, they still remember the violence, the bombs, the blood. ... Sometimes when they start talking, you feel the pain in their voice and in their eyes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Salih says that the students’ thirst for soccer -- which could perhaps be called an obsession -- often extends to the classroom.

"content": "\u003cp>\"You don't look like you're from around here,\" a young Adolphus Busch is told as he arrives in America from Germany to pursue his dream of making beer. So begins Budweiser's new Super Bowl ad, released earlier this week into an ongoing political maelstrom over immigration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ad depicts the company's founder trudging through swamps and mud, surviving a steamboat fire and being greeted with outright hostility before getting to St. Louis and meeting Eberhard Anheuser — i.e., the Anheuser in Anheuser-Busch. Despite the beer giant's protestations that the ad is not political, it has hit a nerve among conservatives for taking a seemingly pro-immigrant stance at a time of widespread protests against President Trump's ban on travelers from seven Muslim-majority nations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But lost in all the brouhaha is the true story of the 19th-century German immigrants behind the rise of American brewing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>First, let's start with a little historical nitpicking with that ad. Historian Maureen Ogle, author of \u003cem>Ambitious Brew: The Story of American Beer,\u003c/em> says that when Busch arrived in St. Louis, Mo., he didn't just run into Eberhard Anheuser — he married his daughter and took over the small brewery that Anheuser, a prosperous soap-maker, had acquired.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, neither Anheuser nor Busch was the source of the original Budweiser. Ogle says the Bud brand was started by one of Busch's friends, Carl Conrad. Busch eventually bought Budweiser from Conrad — but that happened in the 1880s, long after he'd already become a successful brewer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But there's one thing in the Budweiser ad that rings true to history: the anti-German immigrant hostility that Busch is depicted enduring on the streets. \"Go back home!\" a man tells him angrily.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While we don't know if Busch himself ever walked through such hostile crowds, Ogle says the 1850s were certainly an era marked by \"xenophobic turmoil.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Busch was part of a large wave of German immigrants, including Frederick Miller and Frederick Pabst, who helped build American brewing in the mid-1800s. The still-new nation was in the middle of a great debate over what it meant to be an American. And it was seeing a huge influx of immigrants — not just from Germany, but Ireland, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Both the Irish and Germans came from cultures where alcohol was a respectable habit,\" says Ogle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many native-born Americans were worried about how all those newcomers, and their customs, would affect national identity, Ogle says. That's partly what gave rise to the temperance movement.

So begins Budweiser's new Super Bowl ad, released earlier this week into an ongoing political maelstrom over immigration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ad depicts the company's founder trudging through swamps and mud, surviving a steamboat fire and being greeted with outright hostility before getting to St. Louis and meeting Eberhard Anheuser — i.e., the Anheuser in Anheuser-Busch. Despite the beer giant's protestations that the ad is not political, it has hit a nerve among conservatives for taking a seemingly pro-immigrant stance at a time of widespread protests against President Trump's ban on travelers from seven Muslim-majority nations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But lost in all the brouhaha is the true story of the 19th-century German immigrants behind the rise of American brewing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>First, let's start with a little historical nitpicking with that ad. Historian Maureen Ogle, author of \u003cem>Ambitious Brew: The Story of American Beer,\u003c/em> says that when Busch arrived in St. Louis, Mo., he didn't just run into Eberhard Anheuser — he married his daughter and took over the small brewery that Anheuser, a prosperous soap-maker, had acquired.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Also, neither Anheuser nor Busch was the source of the original Budweiser. Ogle says the Bud brand was started by one of Busch's friends, Carl Conrad. Busch eventually bought Budweiser from Conrad — but that happened in the 1880s, long after he'd already become a successful brewer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The still-new nation was in the middle of a great debate over what it meant to be an American. And it was seeing a huge influx of immigrants — not just from Germany, but Ireland, too.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Both the Irish and Germans came from cultures where alcohol was a respectable habit,\" says Ogle.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many native-born Americans were worried about how all those newcomers, and their customs, would affect national identity, Ogle says. That's partly what gave rise to the temperance movement. It wasn't just about condemning alcohol, it was about defining the moral character of America.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"That was a serious culture clash,\" Ogle says. \"And it did fuel a really strong prohibition movement.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Many Germans who came over set up beer halls in towns with large German enclaves, like St. Louis, Cincinnati and Milwaukee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Americans thought of it as disreputable — only low-class people drank,\" Ogle says. \"If you went into a tavern, you were going into the seventh circle of hell.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This was the 1840s and '50s, when America was still debating the great question of slavery, and whether to legalize it outside the South.

The Raiders have promised $500 million.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval's office said the lease agreement submitted last week would have the Raiders shoulder $1.15 billion of the cost of the stadium, and accept operation responsibilities and risk.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a statement, the Raiders acknowledged Adelson's involvement in the project over the past year and promised to make good on owner Mark Davis' vow to move to Las Vegas.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Adelson's withdrawal means the Raiders will go forward with a decision pending from NFL owners who must approve the move.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It also means the team won't have to ask team owners to waive a rule prohibiting casino operators from having ownership roles in teams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Team officials said previously they were enlisting investment bank Goldman Sachs for the project.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lease proposal would have the Raiders operate the 65,000-seat stadium that would be built at a site yet to be decided, probably just off the Las Vegas Strip.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Adelson's terse statement, the chief executive of Las Vegas Sands Corp. declared that he had been shut out of talks that led to the lease document presented to the Clark County Stadium Authority.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We were not only excluded from the proposed agreement,\" Adelson said, \"we weren't even aware of its existence.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sands owns the Venetian and Palazzo resorts and a convention center on the Las Vegas Strip, and several casinos in the Chinese gambling enclave of Macau. Adelson is a big backer of Republican Party causes, and his family also owns the local newspaper, the Las Vegas Review-Journal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's clear the Raiders have decided their path for moving to Las Vegas does not include the Adelson family,\" Adelson's statement said. \"So, regrettably, we will no longer be involved in any facet of the stadium discussion.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stadium Authority Chairman Steve Hill, who also serves as Sandoval's development chief, vowed to \"continue to ensure the stadium project is developed in a manner consistent with the clear direction of Nevada lawmakers.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The plan isn't only to bring an NFL franchise to Nevada, but also to build a stadium for UNLV football \"and enhance our state's core tourism economy,\" Hill said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sandoval, a Republican who called lawmakers into a special session to approve tax funding for the project, thanked the Adelson family \"for their role in bringing a publicly owned stadium to Las Vegas.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It is unfortunate that they were unable to come to terms with the Raiders,\" the governor said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He added that terms of the law passed to fund the public portion of the project won't change, \"and the state's contribution will not increase as a result of this announcement.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Clark County Commission Chairman Steve Sisolak, who has been intimately involved in the stadium and Raiders plan, characterized Adelson's departure as \"a significant setback ... unless Goldman Sachs has someone lined up to step into Adelson's place.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I do not know how the other owners are going to react to this,\" Sisolak said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Any relocation to Las Vegas must be approved by 24 of the 32 NFL team owners. A vote is expected during league meetings in March in Phoenix.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>AP Sports Writer Josh Dubow in Santa Clara contributed to this report.\u003cbr>\n\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Soon, maybe, the Las Vegas Raiders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once looked on with disdain by major sports leagues, this gambling city is now just 24 votes away from cashing in on one of the biggest sports jackpots ever.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Raiders made it official Thursday by filing for relocation from Oakland to Las Vegas, the culmination of a whirlwind romance to bring an NFL team to a city that the league had previously gone out of its way to shun because of sports betting fears.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>League owners are expected to vote on the move in March, and it's hard to find anyone betting it won't happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't know how you can put a price on this,\" said Steve Sisolak, a county commissioner who has been involved in the efforts to land the team. \"There are only 32 cities that can say they have an NFL team and we will be one of them.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Actually, there is a price on it. Tourists will pay increased room taxes to fund $750 million of the cost of a new $1.9 billion stadium as part of a deal rammed through a special session of the Nevada Legislature by powerful casino owner Sheldon Adelson's family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The stadium will be just off the glittering Las Vegas Strip, where the Golden Knights will begin play this fall in a new arena of their own. The expansion hockey team is the first major sports franchise to call the city home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Without the Golden Knights I don't know if the Raiders would have thought this was a viable market,\" Sisolak said. \"They kind of broke the glass ceiling.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If approved, the move would be the third announced by an NFL team in a year as the league undergoes a geographic shift unlike any in recent history. The Rams returned to Los Angeles from St. Louis this season, while the San Diego Chargers will begin play in L.A. next season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"(Raiders owner) Mark Davis is a man of his word, and the filing of the Raiders' application for relocation of the franchise with the NFL is a significant step in bringing the team to Las Vegas,\" Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The NFL has long been opposed to any association with Las Vegas, to the point where just a few years ago it refused to allow the city to advertise on the Super Bowl telecast because it offered legal betting. But the league's opposition has softened, and so has the stance of Commissioner Roger Goodell.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think there are some real strengths to the Las Vegas market,\" Goodell said at an owners' meeting last month. \"It's clear the Las Vegas market has become a more diversified market, more broadly involved with entertainment, hosting big events. And there's a growth to the market.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Las Vegas, which has about 2.5 million people in the metropolitan area, would be a smaller market than the Bay Area. But fans from other cities are expected to fill a third of the proposed 65,000-seat stadium, and the team will also be able to draw on Raiders fans throughout California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Influential owners like Jerry Jones of the Dallas Cowboys and Robert Kraft of the New England Patriots have spoken favorably about the prospects of a move, and Raiders owner Mark Davis has been lobbying behind the scenes to secure the votes of three-fourths of the 32 owners needed for relocation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The vote is expected to take place during league meetings March 26-29 in Phoenix.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis did not comment Thursday on the relocation application, but has made no secret of his commitment to Las Vegas. At a stadium meeting last year in the city he brought along a program from a 1964 American Football League exhibition game in the city, where the Raiders beat the Houston Oilers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis has said the team will continue to play in Oakland until the Las Vegas stadium is finished, likely by the 2020 season. There are two sites currently being looked at for the stadium, both adjacent to the Strip.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One possible hang-up could be Adelson's participation in the project. He's the one who initiated conversations with Davis last January, and was instrumental in getting a tax increase passed by the state legislature in October.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Adelson's family has offered $650 million toward the stadium, but has reached no deal with the Raiders yet. Team representatives say they have secured the funding to replace Adelson's investment in case a deal isn't reached. NFL rules prohibit casino operators from having ownership roles in teams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Andy Abboud, the executive working on the project for Adelson, called the filing \"one of those moments that makes it real\" and vowed that necessary negotiations will be completed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The people of Las Vegas should be excited that the NFL is coming to town,\" Abboud told AP. \"Business deals take time to work out, but everything will work out in the end.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Raiders have two one-year options to play at the Oakland Coliseum in 2017 and 2018 and are already taking season-ticket renewals for next season. But the Raiders have largely ignored a proposal by former player Ronnie Lott to build a new stadium in Oakland to keep the team permanently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We are in this game and we are playing to win,\" Lott's group said in a statement, vowing to push ahead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under Davis' father, Hall of Fame owner Al Davis, the Raiders moved from Oakland to Los Angeles in 1982, and then returned to the East Bay in 1995.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Associated Press Writer Ken Ritter in Las Vegas and AP Sports Writer Josh Dubow in San Francisco contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Soon, maybe, the Las Vegas Raiders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Once looked on with disdain by major sports leagues, this gambling city is now just 24 votes away from cashing in on one of the biggest sports jackpots ever.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Raiders made it official Thursday by filing for relocation from Oakland to Las Vegas, the culmination of a whirlwind romance to bring an NFL team to a city that the league had previously gone out of its way to shun because of sports betting fears.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>League owners are expected to vote on the move in March, and it's hard to find anyone betting it won't happen.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I don't know how you can put a price on this,\" said Steve Sisolak, a county commissioner who has been involved in the efforts to land the team. \"There are only 32 cities that can say they have an NFL team and we will be one of them.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Actually, there is a price on it. Tourists will pay increased room taxes to fund $750 million of the cost of a new $1.9 billion stadium as part of a deal rammed through a special session of the Nevada Legislature by powerful casino owner Sheldon Adelson's family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The stadium will be just off the glittering Las Vegas Strip, where the Golden Knights will begin play this fall in a new arena of their own. The expansion hockey team is the first major sports franchise to call the city home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Without the Golden Knights I don't know if the Raiders would have thought this was a viable market,\" Sisolak said. \"They kind of broke the glass ceiling.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If approved, the move would be the third announced by an NFL team in a year as the league undergoes a geographic shift unlike any in recent history. The Rams returned to Los Angeles from St. Louis this season, while the San Diego Chargers will begin play in L.A. next season.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"(Raiders owner) Mark Davis is a man of his word, and the filing of the Raiders' application for relocation of the franchise with the NFL is a significant step in bringing the team to Las Vegas,\" Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The NFL has long been opposed to any association with Las Vegas, to the point where just a few years ago it refused to allow the city to advertise on the Super Bowl telecast because it offered legal betting. But the league's opposition has softened, and so has the stance of Commissioner Roger Goodell.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I think there are some real strengths to the Las Vegas market,\" Goodell said at an owners' meeting last month. \"It's clear the Las Vegas market has become a more diversified market, more broadly involved with entertainment, hosting big events. And there's a growth to the market.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Las Vegas, which has about 2.5 million people in the metropolitan area, would be a smaller market than the Bay Area. But fans from other cities are expected to fill a third of the proposed 65,000-seat stadium, and the team will also be able to draw on Raiders fans throughout California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Influential owners like Jerry Jones of the Dallas Cowboys and Robert Kraft of the New England Patriots have spoken favorably about the prospects of a move, and Raiders owner Mark Davis has been lobbying behind the scenes to secure the votes of three-fourths of the 32 owners needed for relocation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The vote is expected to take place during league meetings March 26-29 in Phoenix.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis did not comment Thursday on the relocation application, but has made no secret of his commitment to Las Vegas. At a stadium meeting last year in the city he brought along a program from a 1964 American Football League exhibition game in the city, where the Raiders beat the Houston Oilers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davis has said the team will continue to play in Oakland until the Las Vegas stadium is finished, likely by the 2020 season. There are two sites currently being looked at for the stadium, both adjacent to the Strip.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One possible hang-up could be Adelson's participation in the project. He's the one who initiated conversations with Davis last January, and was instrumental in getting a tax increase passed by the state legislature in October.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Adelson's family has offered $650 million toward the stadium, but has reached no deal with the Raiders yet. Team representatives say they have secured the funding to replace Adelson's investment in case a deal isn't reached. NFL rules prohibit casino operators from having ownership roles in teams.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Andy Abboud, the executive working on the project for Adelson, called the filing \"one of those moments that makes it real\" and vowed that necessary negotiations will be completed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The people of Las Vegas should be excited that the NFL is coming to town,\" Abboud told AP. \"Business deals take time to work out, but everything will work out in the end.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Raiders have two one-year options to play at the Oakland Coliseum in 2017 and 2018 and are already taking season-ticket renewals for next season. But the Raiders have largely ignored a proposal by former player Ronnie Lott to build a new stadium in Oakland to keep the team permanently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We are in this game and we are playing to win,\" Lott's group said in a statement, vowing to push ahead.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Under Davis' father, Hall of Fame owner Al Davis, the Raiders moved from Oakland to Los Angeles in 1982, and then returned to the East Bay in 1995.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Associated Press Writer Ken Ritter in Las Vegas and AP Sports Writer Josh Dubow in San Francisco contributed to this report.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
