Lakers making a Move?

Disclaimer:I in no way am I planning to now or in any time in the future rescind my fandom of the Los Angeles Lakers.

In light of recent events... The Kobe Saga, The Ascension by Portland into being a future Dynasty, The All-Around Talent in the Western Conference, The absolute random-ness of the east... etc. I, In my high-standing position in the Lakers organization have decided to execute a trade. Yes, i know another trade offer... Well, i promise you.. its different.

I offer the Los Angeles Lakers organization in return for either the Pittsburgh Steelers, Baltimore Ravens, Cincinnati Bengals, St. Lois Rams or Tampa Bay Buccaneers. This trade will make all of us happy finally giving L.A. its Football team... However, it will probably need to have other parties involved to make it work... because the clippers can't handle L.A. by themselves... they'll probably degenerate into a sorry franchise whose crowning achievements are making the playoffs 7 times and reaching the conference finals only once in 37 years... oh.......... wait.

Ok... so my proposed trade goes as follows...

Los Angeles Lakers, Oakland Raiders: to Pittsburgh
I suppose this is fair pay for the Steelers and Penguins. You get the most star-packed organization in NBA History along with another Storied franchise in the Raiders. I know this is a football-heavy town but the Raiders have an interesting future and they get one of the best franchises in history with the Lakers. (It also gets the Lakers out of the west and into the East,) where a team led by a lineup of Crittenton, Kobe, Odom, Gasol and Bynum as their starting lineup in 2 to 3 years will rampage to the finals year-after-year. However, to make this work the Lakers will have to change the purple in their unis to black and the Raiders will have to change their silver to yellow. Sorry, City Rules.
Portland Trail Blazers, Pittsburgh Steelers, Pittsburgh Penguins: to Los Angeles
This gives the city of Angels a great package for about equal price. We get one of the greatest Football franchises in History in the Steelers to make up for all those years without a football team. (its 12 and counting.) And we also get the Blazers, who I praised highly just one post ago. This team has more young talent than Hugh Hefner. And as for the Penguins... Let's just say they're the Blazers of the NHL. Sidney Crosby is making ME want to see Hockey... ME, i thought i'd never see the day.
Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim(that just makes me giggle) :to Portland
The city of Portland gets a Major League ball club to feed the new baseball fever started by back-to-back College world series championships. And this isn't just any Baseball team... No this is a true title-contender who's is stacked with so much talnet, the city of roses wont miss a beat with the blazers gone.
Los Angeles Clippers, Oakland A's: to San Diego
In Exchange for the most talented team in Football right now the City of San Diego gets another Baseball team and the NBA team that left them 23 years ago. This puts them in a great spot and allows them to not skip a beat. it also gets the Clippers out of Staples.
San Diego Chargers: to Oakland
In exchange for The Raiders and A's Oakland gets LT and his Boys... 'Nuff Said

It may take all the parties involved a little while to get accustomed to the idea... but after a while it should all work out fine.
