The NFL is going to regret their actions with these teams one day and probably not too far in the future.

NFL is making a fortune and still have to shake down taxpayers to pay their way. San Diego was one of the original AFL franchises with a proud history, perfect location for Super Bowls and until recently a pretty solid fan base. LA can barely support the Rams, first year is a novelty, then what 2 teams? Somebody will end up in Vegas I think. To leave San Diego is pure greed, maybe why NFL is losing viewers. Average fan is sick of overpaying to watch millionaires play football.

I would think St. Louis would want the Chargers more than anyone else but they would have to rename the team because they are not on an ocean. How about the St. Louis Archies?

Pretty sure Spanos is having more saber rattling fits. I bet he's so p*ssed he's not getting his way.

Spanos would have to probably pay rent and relocation fee or pitch in and pay a bunch and build a stadium here. I don't know which way it works out best but I have a feeling that I know.


How does the NFL lose out by not having a team in San Diego?
Spanos reminds of that loud mouth clown from queens(president elect)
Everybody sits around and talk about how much money he has but in reality he's a broke a$$.
The Spanos wealth is tied into the chargers. This dude and his family can barley afford to pay the relocate fee.

As far as the NFL losing out not having a team here in San Diego, you live here so you know answer.
It's the reason why you and I live here boss. In February would you rather attend a superbowl here in San Diego or would you rather attend a super bowl in New Jersey?
I'll wait for your answer, but I suspect I already know your answer

A Charger is a horse. They don't have those in St Louis? What's being on the coast got to do with it?

No i don't care about the Chargers. From a football standpoint, hard to root for a team that has their stadium taken over every Sunday and then cries to to NFL about a blackout rule and how ticket prices are too high. The ownership has this entitled attitude. Back in the day AJ Smith came across like an entitled jerk as well and I didn't care how they treated Marty Schottenheimer.


Ill attend a Super Bowl anywhere in this world if and when the Browns make it I am Browns fan living in San Diego I've traveled to two Browns games this season. I support them even as hard as it can be lately.

I LIKE living here but The NFL will go on with or without a team in San Diego.

Hell, i hardly agree with you but, i agree with you
As a Raider fan we have the same problem as the chargers but worse imo.
