 someone earlier said because the Raiders are originally from Oakland therefore they need to stay in Oakland.He hit the nail right on the head.Not only are they originally from Oakland but Oakland is their identitity.They were only in LA for a dozen years so when you hear Raiders you automatically associcate them with Oakland.

The OAKLAND Raiders are as synonomous together same as the Yankees are synonomous as being the New York Yankees or Celtics as the Bostom Celtics.same with the Rams with LA which is why they need to come back and why the Chargers need to stay in San Diego.they are all synonomous together every bit as much as the yankees are with New York.

While its true that the Rams were in Cleveland before becoming known as the LOS ANGELES RAMS,they were only there a little over 5 years so you cant say if Oakland is the Raiders home then Cleveland is the Rams home because they stayed in LA for practically 50 years because they were successful out there.Again Rams need to come back to LA,Chargers need to stay in San Diego,and the Raiders for sure need to stay in Oakland.That is their identity.
