Casino mogul Adelson pulls out of Raiders-Vegas stadium deal (Yahoo Sports)

Casino mogul Sheldon Adelson has pulled out of a plan to build a $1.9 billion domed stadium for the NFL's Oakland Raiders to move to Las Vegas. In a terse statement on Monday, Adelson declared that he had been excluded from talks before the team sent a lease proposal last week to the public board that will own the 65,000-seat stadium. Adelson says his family and Las Vegas Sands ''will no longer be involved in any facet'' of the plan.
