On the Las Vegas Raiders podcast with Tony Renteria:
#1 The NFL has implemented numerous restrictions on the Las Vegas Raiders who decided to use Costa Mesa in Los Angeles for training camp. Since the Raiders are not the home team tenant and the Rams and Chargers are the Raiders must adhere to the rules of the NFL and will not be permitted to have their fans watch practice.
#2 The Raiders in addition of not being allowed to have their fans watch practice the Raiders are not allowed to market, broadcast or promote that they will be holding training camp at Costa Mesa.
#3 Also the league has told the Raiders that the media will not have access to training camp at Costa Mesa to cover, interview or file reports at the Los Angeles stadium. The league will allow a handful of season ticket holders and VIPs to attend practice during the Raiders 18 day stay at Costa Mesa.
#4 Raiders owner Mark Davis didn’t protest and said it’s the Rams and Chargers facility and he understands that’s their policy saying it would be nice if all the fans could have access to watch training camp but the Raiders are prepared to work with the Rams and Chargers.
#5 The Raiders still have fans in the Southland they played in Los Angeles from between 1982-94 and while they’ll be some sore fans who won’t have access to Costa Mesa they’ll just have to prepare for the pre season to have access to watch them live in August.
