OAKLAND, Calif. -- Oakland and Alameda County leaders will vote Tuesday on a financial and development plan to build a $1.3 billion football stadium at the Coliseum site to keep the Raiders from moving to Las Vegas.Mayor Libby Schaaf and other local leaders on Friday presented details of the plan reached with the Ronnie Lott Group and Fortress Investment Group that includes public money only being used for infrastructure upgrades.This term sheet agreement puts Oakland in the running to keep the Raiders in a way that is responsible to the team, the league, the fans and the taxpayers, Schaaf said. Everything the city and county and the investor team is doing is about putting forward the best offer to encourage the Raiders ownership and the NFL to keep the Raiders in Oakland, where the team belongs.The Raiders had no comment on the plan, and owner Mark Davis is committed to moving to Las Vegas, where a $1.9 billion stadium project has been approved. Nevada will raise $750 million from a hotel tax to fund the stadium with billionaire casino mogul Sheldon Adelson contributing $650 million and the Raiders and NFL kicking in $500 million.The Raiders must get approval from 24 of the 32 NFL owners before being allowed to move with a vote possible as soon as January.That put pressure on Bay Area officials to put together an alternative plan to keep the Raiders from moving. The parties have identified $1.25 billion in potential financing for a project that may cost upward of $1.3 billion for a stadium that would open in 2021.The city will invest $200 million on infrastructure in the area as well as provide land worth $150 million. The Lott Group will contribute $400 million to the project with the NFL and the Raiders contributing $500 million. The NFL has already pledged $300 million to a stadium in Oakland when it prevented the Raiders from moving to Los Angeles earlier this year.The city and county still must figure out how to deal with the nearly $100 million in debt on the current stadium before finalizing the deal.Under the deal, the city and county will convey approximately 105 acres to Lott Group/Fortress for a football stadium with about 55,000 seats will be built along with mixed-use development for possible office or retail space, hotels, residential housing and parking.There will also be 15 acres reserved for a new baseball stadium for the Athletics if they choose to stay at their current site. If the As decide to move to a different location that land will be added to the mixed-use development. Also, the 10 acres occupied by Oracle Arena could be added to the development if the Warriors move to San Francisco and the city and county decide not to keep using the arena.This is the best plan the city and county have ever achieved in attempting to keep the Raiders in Oakland, councilmember Larry Reid said. We are offering control of the land, a respected investment team, and no risk to taxpayers in putting this deal together. This shows the public, the Raiders ownership and the NFL that there is a viable plan to remain in Oakland.Hall of Famer Ronnie Lott has teamed with former NFL player Rodney Peete to head the Oakland Pro Football LLC, which is working with global investment manager Fortress Investment Group LLC on the project.This is about what it means to be from Oakland, and the values we share as a region, Lott said. If we put those things forward, we believe we have a fighting opportunity to keep the Raiders here and join in revitalizing the community around the Coliseum. Keith Tkachuk Jersey . Thats about all he can do right now, so hes trying not to think about when he might be able to play again for the Los Angeles Lakers. Jeremy Roenick Jersey . -- Linebacker Myles Jack ran for four touchdowns, defensive end Cassius Marsh caught a scoring pass, and No. https://www.cheapcoyotes.com/318z-dan-focht-jersey-coyotes.html . Three came down to the fourth quarter while quarterbacks continued to shine in all four games; so important to the overall quality of the game. Max Domi Jersey . For the Wild it was their first win of the season and they now have a record of 1-1-2 while the Jets fall to 2-2. Jets start a six game home stand Friday with another divisional game, home to the Dallas Stars. Krys Kolanos Jersey . Artturi Lehkonen, Joni Nikko and Ville Leskinen had the other goals for Finland (1-0) while Juuse Saros stopped 28 shots. Tim Robin Johnsgard had the lone goal for Norway (0-2). EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. -- Long-time center John Sullivan was in the first wave of cuts by the Minnesota Vikings, during a devastating day marked by a likely season-ending left knee injury for quarterback Teddy Bridgewater .Sullivans eight-year tenure with the team ended with his release on Tuesday after 12-year veteran Joe Berger was declared the winner of the starting job and the Vikings werent able to make a trade work for a player who missed last season because of a back injury.It was tough, but were always going to do whats in the best interest of the football team, coach Mike Zimmer said.Sullivan, a sixth-round draft pick out of Notre Dame in 2008, succeeded six-time Pro Bowl pick Matt Birk at center the following year. Hes fourth all-time among Vikings centers with 93 regular season starts.Our entire organization appreciates everything that John Sullivan has done for this franchise, general manager Rick Spielman said. Sullivan led our team, not only with how he played the game, but also with how he handled himself in our community. We wish John Sullivan and his family nothing but the best.Berger, a valuable, versatile player who has also started games at guard since joining the Vikings in 2011, proved to be a solid replacement in 2015 after Sullivan went down during training camp. They rotated regularly this summer, each taking turns with the first team.We graded them and everything, Zimmer said. We thought that Berger was better.With Bridgewater likely out, Berger will be working with a new starting quarterback.dddddddddddd Shaun Hill will step in as the starter for now, but another quarterback is almost certain to be acquired over the next week.Meeting the NFL deadline for reducing rosters to 75 players on Tuesday, the Vikings also waived offensive tackle Austin Shepherd, defensive end Theiren Cockran, offensive tackle Sean Hickey, tight end Brian Leonhardt, defensive tackle Claudell Louis, wide receiver Marken Michel, linebacker Terrance Plummer, wide receiver Terrell Sinkfield, quarterback Brad Sorensen and wide receiver Troy Stoudermire.Safety Antone Exum and defensive tackle Scott Crichton were waived with an injured designation. Offensive lineman Mike Harris, the starter last year at right guard, was placed on the non-football illness reserve list. He has not practiced since training camp began because of an undisclosed condition.Cockran and Stoudermire are former University of Minnesota standouts. Sinkfield played in high school in the state (Hopkins), and Leonhardt played in high school (Spring Lake Park) and college (Bemidji State) in Minnesota. Shepherd was a seventh-round draft pick in 2015. Crichton was drafted in the third round as a defensive end in 2014.---AP Pro Football Writer Dave Campbell contributed to this report.---Online:AP NFL website: http: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: http://twitter.com/AP-NFL ' ' '
