View Full Version : Oakland Raiders Coming to OKC?? grandshoemaster 10-11-2013, 03:59 PM Interesting article from a former quarterback for the Raiders. Oakland Raiders Stadium Plan A Field Of Dreams In Oklahoma City (http://rustyhilger.com/oakland-raiders-stadium-plan-a-field-of-dreams-in-oklahoma-city) Dubya61 10-11-2013, 04:12 PM YGTBSM, right? Is this part of an evil Oakland Raiders in OKC drinking game? Plutonic Panda 10-11-2013, 04:34 PM Funny enough, I actually read the article this time, and I found this quote Commerce, the population has increased 15 percent since 2000, with property values rising 472 percent. Is that true??? If it is, that is pretty darn good. bchris02 10-11-2013, 06:57 PM I doubt this is true. OKC isn't quite big enough to have an NFL team yet. If this was to happen though it would be huge for this area. I'm not banking on it though. OKCRT 10-11-2013, 07:22 PM I doubt this is true. OKC isn't quite big enough to have an NFL team yet.

Charlotte wasn't any bigger than OKC is today when they got the Panthers. Mel 10-11-2013, 08:25 PM Lesus! I hope this isn't true. (No, that first word is not misspelled, it's in honor of the Pope Francis coin" bchris02 10-11-2013, 10:36 PM I agree,tell that to the green bay fans as well. Charlotte wasn't any bigger than OKC is today when they got the Panthers. The Panthers though are the Carolina Panthers, not the Charlotte Panthers. Their media market is much larger and expands beyond the Charlotte metro. North Carolina has two other metros larger than OKC plus South Carolina in much closer proximity than OKC's possible satellite markets of Tulsa, Wichita, and NW Arkansas. Nonetheless, I would like to see this happen. I just don't think its realistic. If this happens, it would need to be the Oklahoma Raiders (or whatever their name becomes) rather than the OKC Raiders. ljbab728 10-11-2013, 11:06 PM Interesting article from a former quarterback for the Raiders.
