Losing Football Teams Is the Coliseum’s Fault

The city should have figured this out long ago. Instead, they’ve allowed the Coliseum Commission to chase away team after team--Lakers, Rams, UCLA football and now the Raiders.

At any other stadium, any one of these contracts lost would likely result in the firing of the whole front office.

The commission should be run in the private sector rather than by appointed officials who don’t know No. 1 about running a business.

Editor’s note: Since last year, a business partnership of two private firms, MCA, Inc., and Spectacor Management Group, has managed the Coliseum and has advised the Coliseum Commission on business decisions.
