Raiders secure Las Vegas financing

Bets are back on for Las Vegas, as far as the Raiders are concerned.

Oakland Raiders team president Marc Badain told the NFL finance committee on Monday that the team has secured financing for a 65,000 seat stadium, league sources said. Bank of America will replace Goldman Sachs in bankrolling the $1.9 billion project, which temporarily went off the tracks in January when Las Vegas Sands CEO Sheldon Adelson pulled out.

The team thinks everything is now in place for a relocation vote at the annual owners meeting on March 26-29 in Phoenix.
