He's now in a city that doesn't really care about the Chargers. He has 10 years to pay back the relocation fees (roughly $600 million). Plus, two of those 10 years are going to be in a stadium that is smaller than 7 of the stadiums used in the Sun Belt Conference. Then they're going to be the team that rents the Inglewood facility from Kronke and the Rams. Very few Chargers fans are going to travel from San Diego to watch them.
Hell, the StubHub Center has already said that the MLS team will still get the #1 treatment instead of the Chargers.
As to very few Chargers Fans will travel to see them......TRY NO CHARGERS FANS WILL TRAVEL TO SEE THEM......San Diego was one of the original AFL teams and an AFL power. 56 years of San Diego Chargers. All Gone. The San Diego people on news are burning all things Chargers and NFL. OH, don't expect the San Diego TV area to watch much of the play-offs or Super Bowl. Really, St Louis shouldn't either. Pretty soon Oakland will have reasons not to watch NFL when they move to Las Vegas....Oh yes, an NFL team in Las Vegas looks as bad as Pete Rose living in Las Vegas. ......So they took the Colts out of Baltimore. Took the Raiders out of Oakland. Took the Cardinals out of St Louis. Took the Rams out of Los Angeles. Took Raiders out of Los Angeles. Took the Oilers out of Houston. Took the Browns out of Cleveland and they were renamed The Ravens. Took The Rams out of St Louis. Took Chargers out of San Diego. Taking Raiders out of Oakland again. Meanwhile NFL playing NFL games in London and Mexico City.
I'll make a comparison. Bengals move to St Louis. You still going to be Bengals Fans. You going to be all fired up about your Bengals in St Louis. ?....Some of you on here would because you live nowhere close to Cincinnati, so what's it matter.....People are not going from San Diego to LA to see the Chargers. St Louis Fans do not go to Arizona to see the Cardinals or to LA to see the Rams. Cleveland Fans do not go to Baltimore to root for the Ravens. Baltimore fans do not go to Indy to root for the Colts. Oakland Fans will not go to Las Vegas to see the Raiders. Houston fans do not go to Tennessee to see the Titans. and more than Cincinnati Royals fans go to Sacramento to see the Kings. San Diego IS DONE with the CHARGERS and done with THE NFL. ...The NFL better be going for TV ratings in London and Mexico City because they are ticking off people in major TV areas in The USA.
I hope something like the AFL or USFL comes along and puts teams in San Diego, Oakland, St Louis and major areas NFL has ignored. The NFL needs a good swift kick in the rear end. In Free Agency and The Draft, steal NFL Players. Break it off in the NFL's rear end. I have relatives in San Diego. To them, the Chargers are DEAD to them. On the news San Diego people burning all things Chargers and NFL. San Diego has no plans to support the LA Chargers or the NFL.
