The National Football League is holding spring meetings in downtown San Francisco today and Wednesday, and one of the subjects is the race to move to Los Angeles, with the Raiders and San Diego Chargers planning a stadium in Carson and the St. Louis Rams offering a separate plan to build at the site of the old Hollywood Park racetrack in Inglewood.
A small group of keep-the-Raiders-in-Oakland supporters showed up outside the hotel to protest the threatened move, which could take place as early as 2016.
Adding to the fans’ anxiety, the Raiders-Chargers land deal in Carson closed today and the two teams hired former 49ers president Carmen Policy as a high-powered consultant.
