The most shocking headline you'll see all year.

It's a long shot, but I guarantee attendance would be significantly better in OKC than SD and LA combined. That is a big football state.

It's Dallas cowboy country. They aren't goin in there

Huge college football state. NFL? Cowboys and Broncos.

I think they would be the best bet.

Nope. College football reigns supreme. People aren't going to give up a lifetime of family traditions to support an NFL team.

Attendance is not good, but these kickoff pictures tell a slightly different story than the captions.

Should read: People in LA cannot get to any NFL event on time. --and then later on when they show up, whether supporting home or visiting team, the Chargers still can't quite fill a really really small stadium.

The rams will be fine eventually. No one wants to go to that stadium, but lots of people are talking about getting to the new one when it is finished.

It doesn't help that both teams lost yesterday lol.

I was at the Oakland game Sunday and it was packed.

[LaDexter]

Vanderbilt beats Alabama!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[JoeyChuckles]

We better have a good red contingent there on Sunday or I will be disappointed. I'm looking at you Dane.

[Halfcan]

All those empty seats will be filled with Chief fans this weekend.

A real tragedy that they had to move. I always enjoyed going to the games while on vacation there. The light rail drops you off right at the gate, and it was a fun SoCal and fish taco atmosphere. They could even get loud at times.

But with terrible city management, terrible franchise management, and a stadium in disrepair, all of the cards had been played.

Neatest thing about the whole game was the trolley ride into the stadium.
A lovely little stadium, Qualcomm was.

They should see if New Orleans wants another team so they can repurpose that "Fight for LA" thing.

[Buns]

Raiders are already big in Vegas. Now, it seems like every other person is repping silver and black. They're going to flourish here.

[BossChief]

There's too much to do in LA for people to go watch a boring game.

I guarantee you that if the Rams or Chargers become good, the city will support the teams that are worth watching.

If Mahomes went to LA they would probably sell the stadium out in no time.

What about Omaha? I know, I know, low population, blah blah. But there's a LOT of money in that town and a ton of football passion in the surrounding area. Would be interesting.

The loyalties of most NFL fans here already lie elsewhere, plus they would be competing with the Huskers, plus the taxpayers here wouldn't be willing to foot the bill for stadium since we are already paying for the $130M atrocity that Mike Fahey foisted onto us that is only used 2 weeks a year.
