NFL owners approve of Rams relocation to L.A.

From 1946-94, Los Angeles had a football team, the Los Angeles Rams. After a 30-2 passed vote by National Football League team owners, the team will return to the Sunshine State in 2016.

On Jan. 12, 30 of the teams' 32 owners approved of the relocation, even though the proposal only required the approval of 24 of the teams' owners.

According to ESPN.com news services, the Rams also have the possibility of being joined by the San Diego Chargers who have until Jan. 16, 2017 to agree with the terms of the deal.

If the Chargers were to decline, there is another NFL team in the conversation for relocation, the Oakland Raiders.
