NFL Committee Recommends Site For New Los Angeles Stadium

An NFL committee has recommended Carson, California, as the preferred site for a new stadium if the league decides to move a team to Los Angeles, multiple news outlets reported on Tuesday.

NFL team owners still need to vote on the plan, but the proposal to build a brand new stadium in Carson could bring two professional football teams back to Los Angeles.

The NFL's relocation committee on Tuesday heard proposals from three possible sites in the Los Angeles area, but the committee of six NFL team owners decided on the Carson site, which would move the Chargers out of San Diego, and bring the Oakland Raiders back to Los Angeles.

The league's 32 owners are expected to vote on the committee's relocation suggestion, NBC News reported.

The St. Louis Rams have also proposed a stadium in Inglewood.

The Los Angeles Times reported, however, that the preferred scenario for many of the NFL team owners is to approve a plan that includes bringing two teams to L.A., which has not been home to an NFL team since the Rams and Raiders left at the end of the 1994 season.

Any relocation would require a three-quarters vote from the rest of the NFL teams.

All Major League Baseball Teams Required To Hire Spanish Translators By 2016 Season

Major League Baseball and its players’ union are implementing the policy, in part, as a way to ease the transition for non-American Latino players.

Major League Baseball and its players' union have informed teams that they must have a Spanish translator ahead of the 2016 season, a league spokesman confirmed to BuzzFeed News.

Clubs had employed Spanish translators at-will, but prior to Tuesday, MLB had no formal, consistent policy in place.

Latino players made up 29.3% of opening day rosters last year, according to the 2015 Racial and Gender Report Card: Major League Baseball, which is prepared by the University of Central Florida's Institute for Diversity and Ethics in Sport.

In many clubhouses, players act as translators for each another. Consistent access to translators will aim to ease the transition to MLB clubhouses for non-American Latino players, as well as simplify relations with non-Spanish speaking media members. Some Japanese players, such as Mariners outfielder Nori Aoki, employ a personal translator.

Under new MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred, professional baseball has made significant adjustments toward increasing diversity.

Pitchers and catchers begin reporting for spring training Feb. 18. It is unclear, however, if translators will need to be hired ahead of spring training or before the regular season begins on April 3.

The memo sent to clubs was not made publicly available.
