The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim...that name always cracked me up....would be like the Dodgers calling themselves the Los Angeles Dodgers of Brooklyn.

One of the two football teams will leave in the next 10 years.

Since 2000 the chargers were in the playoffs 6 times. Fans out there are spoiled.

Chargers were competitive this year if you didn't count the 4th quarter. The team could have won 8 games if they knew how to finish.

It has nothing to do with losing. Both teams will eventually win again.
Both the Raiders and Rams left LA because tax payers where unwilling to fit the bill for new stadiums. San Diego is a fine city and tax payers made the right choice by voting down a tax payer funded stadium. And although you've lost your team, the city will mange just fine without them. We did for more than 20 years and in that time the city only got bigger and better, and now the NFL is back in town. But this time they're building a stadium funded, not with tax payers money, but NFL owners money.

Yes, it sort of sucks right now, but mark my words, San Diego will continue to grow economically and in all other aspects, and a new owner with deep pockets will come along. He'll build his own stadium, and move his team to your beautiful seaside city.

Paying fans are not spoiled. If you pay for a ticket or season tickets you want to see a quality product on the field. They are professionals and you should expect them to compete.
