OAKLAND, Calif. -- Hall of Famers Ronnie Lott and Marcus Allen spoke Tuesday at a hearing to consider a new $1.3 billion stadium for the Oakland Raiders.
Lott said before the hearing before the Alameda County Board of Supervisors that he hopes the county and the Oakland City Council approve so they can start negotiating a formal agreement for a stadium project that includes $350 million in public money by way of land and future revenue. ``Right now we're in an opportunity to do something that a lot of people didn't even think we could do,'' Lott said.
