Corp Chairman
sheldon adelson. Sands tweeted out a picture of the two guys that said quote looking forward to future conversations. Guess who else is looking forward to it. Las vegas and our two millionplus population. Thats more than enough to support an nfl team. Its larger than green bay and kansas city. Both of which have strong fan bases that do very well for the league. But one still has to wonder if the raiders are serious about las vegas or just leveraging the city to get a better deal out of oakland or elsewhere. One man who sat in on todays james dean levitt nshe regent it was as clear to me, as it could possibly be, that the interest is sincere, its real, its heartfelt.
Chris Maathuis
also, doctor robert lang with brookings
Mountain West
told us that vegas should be an attractive destination for the raiders. Theres still the problem that the league has long rejected the citys gaming culture. They would of course have to approve of a move. And that could sack the whole deal.

The aztecs are rolling into las theres a lady in las vegas looking to break a world record. You may run into her, if youre on the strip tomorrow or even tonight. More next here on 8 news now. from 8 news now, this is sports you know the basic bargain of america is if you work hard, and you do your part, but so many families dont feel like their hard work pays off.

Cut the cost of health care and child care so people can actually get ahead. Hillary clinton, she has what it takes to get things done.
Chris Maathuis<\/a> building a billion dollar stadium and having the raiders play in the facility would be a dream for all sports fans in las vegas and around the country. This is the proposed stadium site. The 42 acres recently purchased by unlv off trop and koval. This is where raider nation would show up a handful of games each fall. But nfl football doesnt necessarily make or break the deal. We talked to
Craig Cavileer<\/a> from majestic realty, whos group is working with adelson and sands organization. You may remember this group when they first worked with the university on the unlv now project. He says this stadium project is not contingent on the nfl franchise coming to las vegas. But a nevada regent tells after sitting in on todays morning meeting, raider interest is sincere. I dont think so it wasnt contingent before and its not now. Las vegas needs a facility like this. Nfl or any other grant ideas talked about and sometimes by us would be terrific, but the facility works either way. James dean leavitt nevada board of regents it was as clear as possible the interest is sincere its real and heartfelt. One thing i can share with you. Mr davis told story in morning meeting that several years ago he took out the domain site
Las Vegas Raiders<\/a> dot com. That was one of the most fantastic things i heard this morning. Both guys say everybody wants to move quickly on this. Cavileer says it would take about 32 months to build a state of the art stadium
Chris Maathuis<\/a> of course adelson and his group is all in but another big name supporting the project is steve wynn. Media, years ago, how long would it take to see a picture like this. Sheldon adelson and raiders owner mark davis, now we find out instantly that they met today. And we have proof.
Chris Maathuis<\/a> the runnin rebels are restless tonight. Theyve got a big date with the aztecs tomorrow. San diego state has dominated unlv recently. Having won six in a row. Its almost hard to believe but its true. Theyve also won 12 of the last 15 from unlv. So now its up to interim coach todd simon to break the spell and the free the rebels from this ugly curse. Todd simon interim head coach 0 for our last 6, which is a major deal. That in itself is a little bit more of a focus. This a giant we have to take down. Ben carter unlv center its going to be a 40 minute war. Its going to be a battle. Its going to be a physical matchup that we are looking forward to just as much as they are. dont forget tip off tomorrow on cbs
Sports Networks<\/a> is scheduled for 5 pm. Not 7, but five. The t center or tmobile arena scheduled april opening. More then 17 thousand seats in the upper and lower concourse were installed today. The seats were tested out and approved by the tmobile crew who was on hand for todays celebration. I did a story on
Helene Neville<\/a> after she ran the perimeter of the united states. Now the 55 yearold is looking to break a world record by running 135 miles in less then 40 hours on the strip neville is running up and down the strip. From the welcome sign to fremont.
