CHIEFS GAME MOVED TO LA!
NFL officials just confirmed as well. Like the idea of proceeds going to help fire victims, including first responders. Maybe encourage fans to bring necessities to game for donations, à la Harvesters. So much for training in Denver, Coach McVay.

The Raiders don't have a lease with Oakland next year (the year before they are moving to Las Vegas) so maybe have the Raiders play all of their home games in Mexico City in 2019.
There wouldn't be much of a difference in field/stadium quality and the Raiders are used to playing their home games in a third world environment, playing in Oakland. |

Listen to that pompous ass Keitzman spout off for a whole hour about poor journalism by reporters saying the game will get moved & the last 10 minutes when he finds out it was.

Because Mexico City is a very wealthy, growing city stuck in the middle of said third world country.
It has 20 million people, lads. That's more than NYC by a fair amount. And it isn't some dilapidated shithole; Mexico City has plenty of money. If they scheduled this game in Juarez, I'd hear ya. But that's not what they did - Mexico City was a plenty defensible choice with a population that seems willing to give the NFL a chance. But some people got some 'splaining to do because this is going to severely damage the NFL's reputation in Mexico and set that goal back for quite some time. And you know the folks responsible for Azteca are going to go out there over the next 5 days, sod and spraypaint as much as they can and then present to the world images of a 'pristine' field before saying the NFL didn't give them a chance to make things right. They're gonna cover their asses big time and do their level best to make the NFL look bad. It's just incredible that it came to this. Everyone involve here screwed up a very nice opportunity for all parties.

New York has a little over 20 mil in the metro area and Mexico City is 21.6.
Pretty much the same size. I will put my nerdness away now. |

I was looking forward to a neutral field, no advantage as well.

Chiefs play better on the road than they do at home under Reid.
