Behold the New Coliseum

creditWould you believe 200 luxury boxes and 24,000 fewer seats for most events, but with 15,000 of them designated as club seating? Those are some of the details of the New Coliseum that Mayor Villaraigosa unveiled today, to be built inside the facade of the existing stadium. The mayor also said he will lead a delegation of local officials to Dallas next week to pitch the National Football League, in hopes of landing a franchise.

NFL-related: USC's Reggie Bush said that neither he nor his family violated any NCAA rules in connection with the home linked to a sports marketer.
