AEG Asks L.A. For More Time To Lure NFL Team To Farmers Field

AEG has asked the city of L.A. for “six more months to bring an NFL franchise to Los Angeles and start building Farmers Field stadium.” The fate of the request will “depend in part on whether city officials believe AEG really is close to luring a team to town.” As part of a '12 agreement with the city, AEG “has until Oct. 17 to sign a team.” Although AEG “insisted it remained committed to wooing a football team, the announcement Monday suggested the company was seriously considering the possibility of expanding the Convention Center complex without a stadium” (L.A. TIMES, 9/30).
