Every year there are rumors that an NFL team will move out to Los Angeles, but thus far it has only been speculation. The NFL has not had a team in Los Angeles since 1995, when both the Rams and Raiders left the city for St. Louis and Oakland respectively.

The Raiders have a wonderful history in Los Angeles, winning Super Bowl 18 against the Washington Redskins by a score of 38-9 in the 1983 season. In Oakland, the team lost their only Super Bowl bid against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2002.

Football fans in Los Angeles largely remain Raiders fans, and you can bet that if they were to return to Los Angeles it would be to a heroes welcome. Although Oakland fans do not have to fret for at least this NFL season, the possibility of the team moving out to Los Angeles is becoming more and more of a reality as everyday passes.
