Six reasons why Raiders to Las Vegas will be awesome

1. No more Northern/Southern California dilemma

Raiders fans

Given the finances to lure the Raiders to Las Vegas (staggering details here), we can be assured the team is going to be stuck in Sin City for a long time. This is a really good thing, and it completely wipes out the old Northern/Southern California dilemma that the Davis family dealt with since first leaving Oakland after the 1981 season.

No longer will anyone have to wonder if Oakland or Los Angeles (or even San Diego) will have to deal with the Raiders coming and going.

Mark Davis said recently that he thinks Raiders Nation would embrace a move to Las Vegas. That’s certainly going to be put to the test now, but we’re betting (no pun intended) the owner’s not wrong on this count.

The issue of regional fan loyalty is now a thing of the past. Raiders Nation can unify under one roof now, which leads us to our next point beautifully.
