ALAMEDA — Mark Davis finally has the stadium deal he long sought, but the Raiders owner spoke mostly of frustration and sadness Tuesday in his first interview since the NFL approved the team’s move to Las Vegas.
“I’m not celebrating anything like I would like to be,” Davis said on the Raiders flagship radio station, 95.7 The Game.
His long list of missed chances in Oakland apparently included a little known attempt to team up with the A’s. Davis said on the air Tuesday that the Raiders wanted to tear down the Coliseum, add some infrastructure, and then re-build with two new stadiums — one for baseball only and one for solely football.
