The 49ers sure looked bad vs. the Broncos, and they are supposed to be much better than their poor showing last season. For us, the offensive line seems to be rising to the top of concerns.

Raiders are looking toward the future...there are teams looking to win a SB who could use a missing piece. Be it a draft pick or a player ....the process of building for the future never ends.
NFL trades in-season are fairly rare and especially rare when comparing to MLB/NBA. There were 19 last year, that's .6 players per team, that's just 1 player out of 53 man roster. That's if both teams are trading players and one isn't trading picks for a player.

Guess what position leads here? Old Diva Wr's.

Yes, because LV is a destination you will still wind up with other teams fans more so than other teams but it will be significantly less. Few people come to LV and win in the casinos so coming in and watching your team lose and then drop a whole bunch of money at the tables adds insult in injury. Add in the exorbitant hotel prices, shows, food, drinks right on down the line and that becomes a much more expensive trip than flying into KC. They will certainly think twice about coming next time.
Prices and costs in Vegas have skyrocketed. No more comp drinks, charges for EVERYTHING, resort fees tacked on to many bills, no more free parking even if you are staying at the hotel, no more cheap buffets, and no more 5 dollar tables for blackjack (and 6:5 odds instead of 3:2), I was lucky to go there and enjoy the place in the 80's and 90's.

Costco doesn’t bag groceries. They will, however, place them in a used produce box if you ask.

Corporate greed.

You can shear a sheep many times, but you can only skin him once. LV has forgotten this. Just 10 years ago I could get a steak dinner on the strip for 10 bucks, comps galore, free rooms on and on. All gone. In order to get something you have to give something, this is the law of human nature. They charge for freaking parking! When it really changed was after covid. I use to go for the shows and food (never gambled) but they won't ever get a penny from me ever again.

LV can fold like an accordion and all I would do is :loltears:
