A major subject at the NFL's May owners meeting was the various stadium situations for the three teams looking to either move to Los Angeles or get a deal done in their current home market. The Raiders are in the thick of that conversation while they look to have a new stadium plan in place by next year either in Oakland or Carson.
In those efforts, they got some good news and some bad news, as Daniel Kaplan of the Sports Journal pointed out.
First, the good news:
NFL owners in a major change to ownership rules, last week voted to allow irrevocable trusts to own teams, will greatly ease estate planning

As Kaplan points out, this makes it easier for Mark Davis to retain the team.
