NFL To Look At New Stadium Sites In L.A. Market
The NFL within the next month will send staff to Southern California "to investigate potential stadium sites that do not include" the L.A. Coliseum or the city of Anaheim, according to sources cited by Wharton & Farmer of the L.A. TIMES. NFL officials "are known to be interested" in Chavez Ravine and "believed to be considering" a location in the City of Industry. NFL execs plan to ask an owners advisory committee "to venture outside league policy" and consider L.A. as a Super Bowl location, "even though the city does not have a franchise." Cowboys Owner Jerry Jones, a member of the NFL working group examining the L.A. market, said the idea of putting a team in L.A. is "not dead by any stretch of the imagination. ... I know on a personal basis I've been doing a lot more lately to get us a team in Los Angeles than I have been in the past" (L.A. TIMES, 10/23).
