Chargers, Raiders owners meet with L.A., Carson officials about stadium

San Diego and Oakland have made proposals to keep their NFL teams, but it's clear the owners of those teams remain unconvinced.

Chargers owner Dean Spanos and Raiders owner Mark Davis were in Los Angeles on Tuesday, meeting with Mayor Eric Garcetti and other political heavyweights and promoting their vision for a shared stadium in Carson.

Spanos and Davis also had meetings with L.A. City Council President Herb Wesson and County Supervisor Mark Ridley-Thomas, as well as Carson Mayor Albert Robles and Carson City Atty. Sunny Soltani.

According to an individual with knowledge of the details of the meetings, it was not mere coincidence they took place in the wake of a plan submitted last week to Oakland and Alameda County leaders by businessman Floyd Kephart, who has an exclusive negotiating agreement to assemble a deal.
