Interesting.  Maybe Carson, since they lost out on the Rams?  Of course a Ducks/Clippers I would think has to be in the cards, but that's east side (but at least it's closer to where they originally came from).  Just by the tone, it doesn't seem like they would move to Inglewood.  City of Industry?  But that is east side.  Irvine also has to be in the cards.

Ha. The move to Seattle begins

The LA Times article mentioned the move coinciding with the 2024 Olympic bid. It sounds like they are looking to take advantage of trying to get Olympic money.  More than likely since that requires a ton of things to go right they'll use this to get a better deal if possible with Staples.

Balmer just wants a new toy. The Honda Center is like a used car to a billionaire.

Right on the Strip. Home of the Golden Knights.

Inglewood it is.  I wonder if they are going to demolish the Forum for the new arena?
