        <description><![CDATA[Probably the Jacksonville Jaguars. Of the 32 teams in the league, it brings in the least revenue, has the most unsold seats every Sunday, as evidenced by tarps covering aisle after aisle, and is situated in a state with two other NFL teams, both vying for attendance.]]></description>

        <description><![CDATA[First building a team in LA is pointless. Nobody will go and they will have a big expensive stadium they will never be able to pay for. Second, leave it to California to try and regulate carbon emissions. Now you know why business are leaving California. I have lived here my whole life and the only people who have these beliefs are the politicians in Sacramento. You show me one tailgater in the parking lot before a game who actual cares if the stadium is carbon neutral. They only care if the team is winning or not.]]></description>

        <link><![CDATA[http://www.smartplanet.com/forum/discussions/1-7581-53230]]></link>
        <description><![CDATA[The California State Senate and Assembly passed a bill requiring AEG to make the new stadium 100 percent carbon neutral  including the emissions generated from private car trips to and from the stadium. If they honestly believe their own rhetoric, then the only sensible thing to do would be to pass a bill  outlawing  the proposed stadium altogether.  There is  no such thing as &quot;100 percent carbon neutral&quot;, and if carbon is the threat that they claim it is, they have no business spending billions of dollars on something as frivolous as another entertainment complex.]]></description>
