It was reportedly over 'field conditions', but the real reason was they wanted more Mexicans at the game...................

Guess so. If the reason was they wanted more violence and gun play in the stands they would have moved it to Chicago.

The game is being moved from a city in southern Mexico to a city in northern Mexico.

Or maybe they just couldn’t sell enough expensive tickets?

The NFL couldn’t get enough Mexicans to kneel during the National Anthem.

The city of Los Angeles can now give away free tickets to the parasite caravan invaders.

I honestly don’t know what the NFL’s grand marketing strategy is. They’re obviously all-in for Goodell and coddling the SJWs. The sport will never sell in Europe, no matter how hard they try and have tried. I understand trying to get the Hispanic market, but how much of a dent are they going to make? The owners should take a knee and beg patriotic Americans to come back, promising to enforce their own policy. But I’m guessing that won’t happen any time soon.

They will find a lot of anti gringo KNEELERS there. In other words, the mexiclowns think this is a gringo game and the game will be postponed due to poor ticket sales..

I dont even know why they move to L.A. because it’s part of mexico already...

They had to refund all the 17 tickets that had been sold.

A valuable optic for the NFL is fan shots. I think they realized would not have been able to avoid anti-American displays.

Why in the heck were the teams even playing in a nasty 3rd world county in the fist place?

Did they want to kneel during the Mexican national anthem?

The NFL did not want that game in Mexico. The field could have been resodded in a week. And players wouldn't complain about field conditions on their off-day and without seeing the field. The NFL's explanation didn't make sense.

Possible explanations:
- anti-American protests and bad optics
- possible threats of violence against fans or players
- El Chapo trial
