Raiders to Play in Oakland in 2016

Ending the unrealistic-but-not-impossible speculation that the Raiders might leave Oakland this season, Rachel Swan of the San Francisco Chronicle reports that the football team signed a lease to stay in O.co. Coliseum for 2016, with one-year options for 2017 and 2018. The long-term future of the team is still in doubt, with San Antonio and Las Vegas among the cities that have met with the Raiders about relocation. And if the Chargers are able to get a new stadium deal to stay in San Diego, then it's also possible that the Rams and Raiders will end up sharing a stadium in Los Angeles.
