LAS VEGAS, NV – APRIL 28: Oakland Raiders owner Mark Davis walks past fans holding Raiders signs as he arrives at a Southern Nevada Tourism Infrastructure Committee meeting at UNLV on April 28, 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Davis told the committee he is willing to spend USD 500 million as part of a deal to move the team to Las Vegas if a proposed USD 1.3 billion, 65,000-seat domed stadium is built by casino magnate Sheldon Adelson’s Las Vegas Sands Corp. and real estate agency Majestic Realty, possibly on a vacant 42-acre lot a few blocks east of the Las Vegas Strip recently purchased by UNLV.

If the prospect of a brand new stadium in a city desperate for a professional sports team was not enough, the Oakland Raiders just got a little more incentive for a Las Vegas relocation.

Sapphire, the self-proclaimed “World’s Largest Las Vegas Strip Club,” said it will provide Raiders players with free transportation to the club and lap dances are on the house when they arrive, according to TMZ.

“Sapphire proposes that if the Raiders do indeed relocate to Las Vegas, all team members will receive free lap dances and limo transportation at the best-voted, world’s largest, and most iconic gentlemen’s club in Las Vegas.”

This might be music to some players’ ears, but it is a perfect example of why many current and former NFL players think a team in Las Vegas is a recipe for disaster.

New York Jets wide receiver Brandon Marshall said the city is not necessarily a bad place, but sending a young player with newfound riches to Vegas conflicts with a commitment to player health and safety.

Former Raiders quarterback Jim Plunkett also cautioned against a move, albeit for more business-related reasons.

There continues to be a lot of smoke surrounding a Raiders move, but it remains to be seen if the fire causing it is enough to drive the action. For now, Oakland fans can rest easy, but if any NFL team would actually move to Vegas, it would probabl be the Raiders.
