IRVING, Texas -- NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell isnt saying whether hes optimistic that San Diego and Oakland can keep their teams, while Indianapolis owner Jim Irsay considers both franchises all but gone.Dean Spanos of the Chargers and the Raiders Mark Davis werent talking at the NFL owners meeting Wednesday in the Dallas area. And no new specifics were revealed by Goodell a day after city and county officials in Oakland agreed to open negotiations with an investment group on a $1.3 billion plan for a new stadium.As you know, these issues have been going on for an awful long time, Goodell said. The challenges of getting stadiums built is something that weve worked very hard on. We have not made great progress in Oakland and San Diego. There is not a stadium proposal on the table that we think addresses the long-term issues of the clubs and the communities.The Chargers face a Jan. 15 deadline to decide whether to join the Rams in Los Angeles, part of a deal struck almost a year ago when owners agreed to let the Rams leave St. Louis. A Chargers-written ballot measure asking for $1.15 billion in increased hotel taxes to help fund a new downtown stadium was soundly defeated last month.Earlier this year, Davis said he was committed to moving the Raiders to Las Vegas, where a $1.9 billion stadium project has been approved. He declined to comment Wednesday when asked by The Associated Press about the vote a day earlier in Oakland.The Raiders will have from the end of their season, which will likely include their first trip to the playoffs since 2002, until Feb. 15 to apply for relocation. Irsay didnt offer any encouraging words for San Diego or Oakland.I think that there is at this point really no reason for optimism in either market for the Chargers and Raiders right now, Irsay said. Well see what happens. Thats the way it appears to be going with the year ending here.Irsay said it would be fruitless to extend the deadline facing the Chargers on their Los Angeles decision. He suggested that Spanos and Rams owner Stan Kroenke would reach an agreement to share Kroenkes new stadium in Inglewood.You know this process has been going on for a very, very long time in San Diego, Irsay said. Deans going to need to make a decision on whats best for the Chargers and go forward. I know as owners we all felt two teams could be supported in Los Angeles, unquestionably.Goodell said the NFL was still committed to keeping the teams in their respective cities, a point he said he reiterated with San Diego Mayor Kevin Faulconer on Tuesday.But ultimately its for the community to decide, Goodell said. We have worked to try to get the referendum passed. And well continue to work with the local officials. But ultimately, they have to determine what it is they want to do in the community, what it is that can work for the community and the team.Among other issues Goodell addressed:-The salary cap will increase at least another $10 million for the fourth year in a row, which Goodell said was a sign that the labor deal reached in 2011 was working. This is healthy for us, Goodell said. We should continue to find ways to continue to extend that and make sure that we address things that we think we could make better.When the NFL and the players union did a long-term deal with no opt-out clause, the idea was to help drive up revenues, which in turn makes the cap rise. The more the cap rises the more cash teams have to spend on players.Had there been an opt-out clause, as previous collective bargaining agreements had, a lockout or strike scenario would have been possible during the contract.Goodell mentioned the league is interested in an extension of the CBA. Its unlikely the union would favor anything short of negotiations on a new deal in which both sides could address any perceived shortcomings in the current agreement.-The NFL will experiment with the number of advertisements in TV breaks during Week 16 games as it continues to evaluate a decline in ratings this season. The changes are not expected to reduce the time for ads, but perhaps the number of ads in a break and how many breaks there are. Were evaluating every aspect of the game presentation on television, on media platforms and also in stadiums, Goodell said.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow Schuyler Dixon on Twitter at https://twitter.com/apschuylerEric Haase Jersey .4 million title.

Mitchell finished with five rebounds with the final one setting up his game-clinching free throws.Louisvilles 32-18 advantage in the paint was big with Anas Mahmoud adding nine points. He fouled out with 1:41 left. Spalding had nine rebounds and Mathiang eight as the Cardinals edged the Boilermakers 36-34 on the boards.I definitely think our length and athleticism bothered them, Spalding said after recording season highs in points and rebounds. They were really big guys, really good basketball players. ... We just had to use our quickness against them.Caleb Swanigan had 14 second-half points and 11 rebounds and P.J. Thompson scored 13, but the Boilermakers (5-2) had their four-game winning streak stopped along with a conference-record seven-game winning streak in the Challenge. Swanigans scoreless first half symbolized Louisvilles effectiveness that carried over into getting the needed late stops as Purdue cut into its lead.We trapped. We fronted. We went affter it really hard, Pitino said.dddddddddddd The guys really focused on the game plan. We knew how tough they are and they wanted to stay in the game, but Ray is the length guy. When Ray pressures the ball up top, they cant get the high-low.THE BIG PICTUREPurdue: The Boilermakers entered ranked seventh in assists at nearly 20 per game but had just five in the first half and finished with 13. A perimeter game that started just 4 of 12 in the first half improved to 6 of 11 in the second en route to finishing above 43 percent for the fifth straight game. Their 17 turnovers led to just 11 Louisville points, but coach Matt Painter wasnt happy with the mistakes.Just a lack of concentration with those 10 (first half) turnovers, he said. We have experienced players turning the basketball over. We have to do a better job of concentrating and making easy plays and getting good shots in the half court.Louisville: The Cardinals pushed the tempo from the start and their defense forced 10 first-half turnovers against Purdues height. They forced 17 turnovers overall and shot 48 percent. ... Pitino used his bench early, playing 12 in the first half alone. That depth was really important because of the style we play, graduate transfer guard Tony Hicks said. If were able to play 12 guys, that just means were able to work harder and thats important in speeding teams up and turning them over on the defensive end.POLL IMPLICATIONSLouisville figures to remain the same depending on what happens at Grand Canyon. Purdue shouldnt drop much with a loss to the No. 14 team.UP NEXTPurdue: The Boilermakers will face their second straight Kentucky school when they host Morehead State on Saturday in their first meeting since 1985.Louisville: The Cardinals travel Phoenix to face Dan Majerle-coached Grand Canyon on Saturday night.
