This is the $800 Million question! The Greater Los Angeles Area consists of 5 counties: Los Angeles County, Orange County, San Bernardino County, Riverside County and Ventura County. Combined, the area has more people than most states and covers nearly 34,000 square miles. So figuring out where the team should be based is extremely difficult. Without trying to alienate any fan, we have to look at why the NFL left, and where they would have the best chance of success. Success really is the key here and it is the definition that is most critical. Dictionary.com, defines success as: the favorable or prosperous termination of attempts or endeavors. the attainment of wealth, position, honors, or the like. a successful performance or achievement: The play was an instant success. a person or thing that is successful: She was a great success on the talk show. The Raiders won one (1) Super Bowl in 1984 and went to the AFC Championship game in 1990 while in Los Angeles. Along the way, they also happened to make their owner some money. By the definition of success, the Los Angeles Raiders where a successful NFL football team. On the other hand, the Los Angeles Rams had much less success. Their fan base was substantially smaller and as a result, earned less money. But fan base and marketing were not the real reasons both teams left the area, it was their stadiums. Neither of which were modern enough nor supported enough opportunities for revenue, and this has to do with location. If the Governor gets his way, Southern California will have not one, but two teams. The beauty of this is that the market is fully capable of supporting both and having two teams builds a natural competition which is both healthy for the fan base and lucrative. The catch here is that the NFL owners will only agree to this concept if the two teams play in the same stadium, just like the New York Giants and New York Jets. They are concerned about the costs to build two stadiums and rightly so. The beauty of our solution is the corporation. The units of ownership will also be used to build our own stadium. This eliminates the concerns of the NFL ownership and the limitations inherent in working with a public stadium authority. It also dramatically increases our revenue opportunities. But all of this is contingent upon where we choose to build it! Remember the movie that says, "If you build it, they will come...?" Well, that is a half truth as it has to be easy to get to and they need places to stay and eat. Other forms of entertainment, a great climate and stadium design are also important. So, even though other locations in other counties are also accessible, and can and will be reviewed before any decision is made, we are proposing the Irvine Spectrum area in Orange County with Chino Hills and Ontario in San Bernardino County as other areas of interest. The Irvine Spectrum area is accessible by the 5 and 405 freeways, the 133, 241 and 261 Toll Roads, and trains and buses. It is close to the Orange County, John Wayne, airport, and has a plethora of entertainment, dining and accommodation options. Perhaps it can be incorporated into the OC Great Park or near the Verizon Wireless Amphitheater? Regardless of where we build the stadium, we want to make the stadium design about the fans, for without whom, no NFL team can exist! To that end, our stadium will be more than just state-of-the-art, it will be revolutionary; providing an unmatched tailgating experience with dedicated parking greenspaces, grills, big screen televisions, Internet and power connections, pavilions and restrooms. There will be ample parking in additional garages and shuttles can be provided from the Irvine Spectrum Mall and the train station. The stadium will also be environmentally friendly which has the added benefit of reducing our operating expenses. Since The Southern California NFL Team focuses on the fan, the stadium will have dedicated seating at each home game for randomly chosen Greater Los Angeles Area schools. It is an example one of the many ways The Southern California NFL Team will give back to the community. And, even though there are other local entertainment and dining destinations, the stadium will also house its own "sports" themed restaurants and entertainment facilities, creating local jobs and bringing additional cash into the community. Of course, we cannot forget all of the other events that can take place at a state-of-the-art stadium. Targeting an audience base similar to that of the Arrowhead Pond of Anaheim, a stadium in the Irvine Spectrum area just makes sense!
