The rumors are flying around the Tampa Bay area that the Buccaneers are planning to move to Los Angeles in the next few years. The Bucs have been hoarding money, neglecting to sign free agents and instead picking up practice players from other teams. This seems a lot like the plot from “Major League”, where the Cleveland Indians owner tries to put together the worst team imaginable to decrease attendance so she can move the team to Florida.

While the Bucs certainly aren’t looking great this year, I think the acquisition of Kellen Winslow shows the team is not trying to throw in the towel. They also play in a newer stadium, so they’d take a big loss on that if they tried to move. I think it’s far more likely that the Jacksonville Jaguars would be moved to LA. They are a younger franchise with a less-established fanbase than the Bucs. I think that would be the right move, because Jacksonville really shouldn’t have an NFL franchise anyway, and Los Angeles needs one badly.
