Ronnie Lott's group continues campaign to keep Raiders in Oakland

Ronnie Lott's investment group said Tuesday it is ready to work with the Raiders on a stadium project in Oakland, a day after a major Las Vegas investor withdrew from a deal for a $1.9 billion facility in Nevada and the same day reports emerged that Goldman Sachs is also pulling out.

Representatives of a group trying to keep the Raiders in the Bay Area reinforced their willingness to develop in Oakland after billionaire casino owner Sheldon Adelson withdrew from the Las Vegas deal.

"We have the land available at the existing Coliseum site following the actions of the City of Oakland and Alameda County last December," the Lott Group said in a statement.
