golfpunk_72 is on a distinguished road
Now is the Staples Center the Lakers home court or the Clippers home court, even the kings the way they play the lakers there? LA is one of the US biggest cities and the two pro teams that play basketball there share home court! interesting!

I know exactly what you mean. I have to root for the A's to lose every year and not make the playoffs. The longer they are around, the longer the Raiders have to play in that damn infield dirt.

Amazing that LA still has no NFL worthy stadium.
And Dodger Stadium is from the 60's I think.

Stadiums of the NFL-New York Stadium-New York Giants/Jets

they are building a new stadium right by the meadowlands where both teams will continue to share...(ny and nj didn't want to pony up for 2 stadiums)

xanadu is this huge project already being built right next to continental...it's gonna have indoor skiingl...well just read this

Meadowlands Xanadu - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


with a new football stadium and if xanadu lives up to what they say combined with the horse racing track at the meadowlands and of course better transportation(ie train station) this could be an awesome thing to have...combined with a new arena for the devils and red bulls in newark and harrison

Leave it to New Jersey to have an arena named after a shitty Olivia Newton John movie.

I dont think that is going to happen for a long time with the problems that they have had with a lack of attendance.
