Sneaking moms car out at night so I could have some wheels to pursue what was important in life. Like Booze, drugs and pussy. Not necessarily in that order.

Or, "Chargers and Raiders try to exert maximum leverage to **** over taxpayers in Oakland and San Diego by threatening to move to LA if those taxpayers don't bend over for them."

Seriously, **** all pro sports teams that try to get even more ridiculously rich off taxpayers. It's disgusting.

Actually, moving the Rams and the Bucs both to LA might work out well.

So they each get an extra home game every year? **** that.

It would be a logistical nightmare. Petco already overcrowds downtown. Building a Football stadium next to our convention center and Petco park sounds like a nice idea, but it would clog up an already clogged downtown SD.

These new stadiums are being built with personal seat licencing. According to the Charger's market research, San Diego's fan base won't support personal seat licencing, and the smaller city of San Diego won't get as much corporate support like L.A would.

Basically, L.A can build a stadium w/o Taxpayer money and the need for a 2/3's vote, while San Diego can't/won't.

Been a San Diego Chargers fan since I was 10. Looks like that is about to change.

Are we going to let this out-of-nowhere JimNasium sighting go by without any fanfare? Well, ok then.

The AFCW has been consistent since 1959.

WTF are you talking about? You just acknowledged that Seattle was in the division, then say the division has been consistent since 1959.

So now CBS has to give up California in its tv rights for AFC games. Brilliant move on your part.

Bucs are going nowhere. The lease is not breakable.

Meh. Bye-Bye San Diego. Hello Seattle. Though, really would rather see the Rams switch. Seattle probably makes more sense. Whatevs.

Should be fun to see what actually happens here.
