Plans have been abandoned for an NFL stadium in downtown Los Angeles, the developer announced Monday. As recently as late last year, AEG's Farmers Field project was the front-runner for returning the league to the region, but with no franchise attached and two competing projects emerging that have NFL owners on board, the downtown plan went into a steep and speedy decline. ''We are no longer in discussion with the NFL or any NFL team,'' said Ted Fikre, Vice Chairman Ted Fikre of AEG, AEG, which owns the NHL's Los Angeles Kings and the downtown Staples Center, home of the NBA's Lakers and Clippers.
