They’ve pretty much shut down any plans to play at Oracle

The Raiders thought they finally found a place to play next season Rashan Gary Jersey , only to find out they’re not wanted in San Francisco.Not by the mayor, and certainly not by the team that still calls itself the San Francisco 49ers — even while it plays its games in a stadium 40 miles away in the Silicon Valley. home of the baseball Giants.“As far as I’m concerned, the Oakland Raiders should play in Oakland,” San Francisco Mayor London Breed said.Six months before the preseason begins, the Raiders are officially still homeless for 2019, locked in an angry dispute with Oakland politicians and searching for a welcome mat somewhere nearby. Even with a scheduled game in London, they still need a home field for seven other regular-season games and two exhibitions.Not that anyone should feel sorry for Mark Davis and his nomadic team. They’ve got a nifty new place all lined up in Las Vegas, where the politicians are much more accommodating.They’re building the team a new $1.8 billion stadium that will open in 2020 with a view of the glitzy Strip just in case the action on the field isn’t enough to keep fan attention. Taxpayers will be footing $750 million of that deal in what might be the biggest giveaway ever to a team owner.Still, Las Vegas officials have to wonder about the competence of Davis and his brain trust, who have vowed not to play a final year in Oakland after being hit with a lawsuit for moving the team. They’ve been reduced to begging for a site for the lame-duck team while finishing touches are being put on the sparkling new facility in Sin City.So what does Davis do? Where will the Raiders play?Here’s a few suggestions http://www.packersauthorizedshops.com/authentic-darnell-savage-jr.-jersey , just in case nothing else works out:SAN DIEGO — There’s a stadium just sitting there begging to be used, and a lot of angry fans just waiting to buy tickets. The Raiders are California’s team anyway, though it might get a bit weird when the Los Angeles Chargers come to town.CAESARS PALACE PARKING LOT — If the Raiders are looking for an iconic spot, this is it. Muhammad Ali fought there, as did Mike Tyson, Marvelous Marvin Hagler and most of the rest of boxing’s greats. They even held a couple Formula One races behind the hotel, so they know how to put on an event. Put up some temporary bleachers, get Wayne Newton to sing the national anthem, and it will seem just like home.SANTA CLARA — The last thing the Raiders want to do is share the 49ers home field, but they may have little choice. Imagine tech millionaires sipping their trendy drinks alongside the scariest fans in football.RENO — It’s the Biggest Little City in the World, at least according to the sign hanging over downtown. Ever jealous of Las Vegas Elgton Jenkins Jersey , Reno wants a part of the Raiders action, too, and it’s just a short ride over the hill on game day. Unfortunately the city isn’t the only thing that’s little. The University of Nevada-Reno stadium seats a cozy 29,993, way too small for any team not named the Chargers.LONDON— What better way to really introduce the NFL to proper Brits than give them the Raiders, if only for a year. Tottenham’s new stadium, should it ever open, was built for the Spurs but also with the NFL in mind.MEXICO CITY — The Raiders are used to playing on dirt and bad grass, so they’ll feel right at home in Mexico City, where the NFL had to move its latest game at the last moment last year because the field at Azteca Stadium was a mess.SAN ANTONIO — They’ve got a dome built for an NFL team and been waiting patiently for years to land one. Yes, it’s only for a year http://www.packersauthorizedshops.com/authentic-jace-sternberger-jersey , but someone in the NFL should really throw the city a bone.LOS ANGELES — Never mind. There are already way too many NFL teams in LA, no matter how much the Raiders would like to return to their 1980s home.OAKLAND COLISEUM — Ok, so the stadium is horrible and there’s a dirt baseball infield in the middle of it. Raiders’ fans don’t complain about it, as long as they’re allowed to get drunk and wear silver and black studded collars to games. Davis should apologize to Oakland politicians for stealing their team, swallow his pride, and pay whatever ransom is needed to finish off one last season there.____Tim Dahlberg is a national sports columnist for The Associated Press.

(AP) — New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft has pleaded not guilty to two counts of misdemeanor solicitation of prostitution in a Florida case, according to court documents released Thursday.Kraft’s attorney Jack Goldberger filed the written plea with the Palm Beach County court on Wednesday. Kraft, 77, is requesting a non-jury trial.Kraft was among hundreds of men charged in a crackdown on massage parlor prostitution and an investigation into human trafficking at Florida spas. Ten spas have been closed and several people, mostly women originally from China Dexter Williams Jersey , have been charged with running the operation.Jupiter, Florida, police say in court documents that Kraft was chauffeured to the Orchids of Asia Day Spa in a 2014 white Bentley on the evening of Jan. 19, where investigators say they videotaped him engaging in a sex act and then handing over an undetermined amount of cash.Kraft returned 17 hours later, arriving at the upper-middle class shopping center where the spa was located in a chauffeured 2015 blue Bentley, the documents said. Kraft, who is worth $6 billion, was videotaped engaging in sex acts before paying with a $100 bill and another bill, police said. He then flew to Kansas City to watch his Patriots defeat the Chiefs in overtime hours later.Kraft’s team then defeated the Los Angeles Rams in the Super Bowl two weeks later, their sixth championship since the 2001 season.Under Florida law, if Kraft is convicted Max Scharping Jersey , he would be required to complete 100 hours of community service, attend a class on the dangers of prostitution and its connection to human trafficking and pay a $5,000 fine. He could also get a year in jail, although that is unlikely.He could also enroll in a diversion program. He would still have to perform the community service, attend the class and pay a fine, but he would avoid a criminal record.
