"Cleveland Council Considers Art Modell Law in Browns' Stadium Negotiations"

Cleveland City Councilman Brian Kazy plans to introduce legislation enforcing the Art Modell law, which could pose a significant obstacle to the Browns owners' potential move of the team's stadium to Brook Park. The law, stemming from Art Modell's relocation of the team to Baltimore in 1996, would require the Haslams to give Cleveland and its residents a chance to purchase the team before moving it outside the city, potentially complicating the team's plans for a new stadium.

"A's Fans Protest Las Vegas Move, Watch Opening Day from Stadium Parking Lot"

Oakland Athletics fans protested the team's potential move to Las Vegas by watching the Opening Day game from the parking lot, waving "SELL" flags and enjoying free tacos and live music. The move, known as the "Summer of Boycott," comes as the A's face the possibility of leaving Oakland, with fans aiming to stop the allocation of public funding to help A's owner John Fisher. Last season, fans took a "Reverse Boycott" approach, but with the move to Las Vegas approved, they are now protesting in a different manner. The A's have responded by keeping the parking lot closed until two hours before the game.
