INDUSTRY, Calif. -- City Council members in the city of Industry unanimously approved a proposal for a pro football stadium intended to lure a team back to the Los Angeles area.

Thursday's vote helps clear the way for developers of the $800 million venue to begin contacting NFL teams about a possible move to the industrial and warehousing city 15 miles east of Los Angeles.

Officials with developer Majestic Real Estate Co. have said they would begin those discussions about a month after the vote.

Majestic intends to pay for the stadium with private funds and start construction as soon as a team has committed to playing there.

Neighboring cities concerned about traffic and noise have threatened lawsuits to stop the stadium.

d'ya reckon it would work this time?

You would think so! Yet, everytime they get a team, they lose a team. L.A. cannot/does not support the NFL. If there is a team looking to move, I'm sure there's someplace better.

Is there actually a chance the NFL could expand domestically? The way Goodell has been talking over the last couple of years it seems Mexico City has a better chance of getting an NFL team than LA.

Mexico City? interesting. I can't see the NFL expanding though, they would need to add two teams to make it even. It would need to be a team that wants/needs to move. If a team were to move, who do you think it would be?
