NFL needs Magic to come back to LA?

Earlier this week Sportsgirl reported that Magic Johnson sold his share of the Los Angeles Lakers. Well Magic has increased his liquidity by also selling his share of Starbucks outlets. These business moves have driven the speculation as to what Magic may invest in next .... well, word on the street is that his goal is to help bring the NFL back to Los Angeles. (Yes, the National Football League, not basketball.)

Johnson stated that he "really, really wants the NFL to come back to L.A." However, he has not had any discussions with the league itself.

Clearly, this talk is all very premature, but I am down with anything and everything to bring the NFL back to LA, the second largest media city in the U.S. It's just crazy that there is no team in la-la land, especially with all the money and investors involved in this move over the last decade. Maybe Johnson has the "magic" needed to make the NFL come to Hollywood.
