Yo, welcome to another episode of In A Minute with Evan Lovett, coming to you live from the IM studios in the heart of Los Angeles.

And speaking to Los Angeles, I am here with L.A. Native, president of team and media operations for

Cronky Sports and Entertainment, and in his 16th year, the president of the Los Angeles Rams.

Kevin Demoff, welcome, and thank you for being here on the show.

It's great. Here we are, Heart of Los Angeles on the show, ready to dive into whatever comes my way.

Absolutely. And I say the Los Angeles connection. Obviously, that's what the show is about and those are guests we have.

But football in Los Angeles is, at least during my formative years years was a very complicated relationship.

I grew up and I was talking to Kevin about this before the show.

I grew up a Raiders fan during the era of Bojacks and Marcus Allen, Al Davis, just win baby.

So-called commitment to excellence, which hasn't quite gone that way this century.

But I also grew up in the era of no football teams in Los Angeles, no professional football

teams in Los Angeles.

And though USC kind of filled that void for a while.

They had a great generation with Carol and Liner and Reggie Bush and Lendale White.

Those are interesting.

I'm curious to your choices of Lendale White.ale white and matt liner first i'm sure he'd be

grateful to know that but you know matt liner was top of mind because i was scrolling today and i

saw a meme that he posted about his son or daughter perhaps asking about alexa who was

matt liner and they talked about his great collegiate career perhaps, asking about Alexa, who was Matt Liner?

And they talked about his great collegiate career, but he didn't amount to much in the pros.

So I thought that was good on him for posting that, but also pretty funny.

But Kevin is responsible, largely responsible for bringing pro football back to Los Angeles in 2016.
