False. The Coliseum has been improved since the Rams. In fact it was upgraded after the Raiders left. But it's not going to ever be a modern football stadium and there's only so much that can be done to improve it. I'm pretty sure that it's registered as a historic place and they can't change too much.Los Angeles really killed their chances for one of the expansion teams when they refused to build a new stadium and voted for Mark Ridley-Thomas' proposal that the city of LA would support the NFL returning >b>only to the Coliseum. NFL owners hated the Coliseum because at the time gangs were bad in that neighborhood and because they also wanted a new modern stadium to be built complete with luxury boxes, etc. |
