National Football League team owners and high-ranking executives, including Raiders Owner Mark Davis, met for two days this week in Santa Clara, Calif., to discuss a plethora of topics including changes to the point after try. A group of Raiders fans gathered outside the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in an effort to express to the attendees that they want the Silver and Black to remain in Oakland.
Davis spoke to reporters and fans just outside the venue.
According to an article written by the LA Times’ reporter Sam Farmer, “The Raiders would be willing to cover $500 million of a new stadium in Oakland — including a $200-million loan from the NFL — but would want Oakland to provide the land, the surrounding infrastructure (such as freeway off-ramps), and the remaining $400 million on an estimated venue cost of $900 million.
