Chargers to announce they're moving to LA tomorrow

[DJ Fieri]

I can't speak on every die hard who goes to the games, but my uncle thinks there will be a very large contingent mixed with some new T-Shirt fans in LA.

Your uncle knows what he's talking about.

this post is a...

if you've ever been to San Diego you already know the drill...

I used to do insurance audits back in the 90's and went there three times a week. I had a company ask me to go back there a few years ago and that quickly got old from Riverside, to Ca. The traffic is horrible. They were talking about a new stadium north of Escondido a bit and that would have been a great are, but alas, the Deigans are to tight

Isn't San Diego a suburb of Los Angeles?

Ha ha ha It's about 2 to 2.5 hours south of LA. And that's if you're flying down the freeway with NO TRAFFIC.

No, it's 90 miles south.

@boltfan72 @Bolts @Eugene Baker III - You guys staying Charger fans after the move?

Ain't no way in hell that traffic will let you do that in day time. It's a two hour drive just to Irvine if you're lucky and then another two hours minimum to the Stadium - if you're lucky

I'm not a Raiders fan, but the Raiders in Los Angeles instead of the Rams or Chargers to begin with would have been perfect for football and would have energized the city. I don't think the fans are quite connected to the Rams yet

There are a lot of re-energized Rams fans......the team sucked this past season. They need to hire the right coach and they'll be fine. They aren't as bad as the season they just had. The right coach will work wonders for the Rams.

I leave the house at 4:30am and usually get home around 6:45pm lately....you'll have to forgive me if I don't remember those. I remember you as the Cornhusker fan in Nebraska.

Long story short: I grew up in Nebraska without an NFL team for most of my life. My Uncle lives out in San Diego and we had made a family visit (I think I was 13?) right around the time a feller named Ladainian Tomlinson was making a serious name for himself. He told me all about him and the team and I was hooked. He was the first NFL player I legitimately idolized and I've seldom missed a Chargers game in the last 12 years plus.

They're my team. I've stuck with 'em through all of the bullshit. Nobody has the right to call me a bandwagon fan.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Well you've seen my teams since you've known me. (the bolt on the right has been there my entire time posting here)

Decided to throw on the powder blue LT avy in celebration

Never noticed the Chargers i your fave teams.....maybe it's just the long work hours.




















Or the early onset of Alzheimers or Dementia.

I would hope so. Another team in LA would be dumb at this point

Chargers aren't moving to LA anymore.
They started driving and as they moved they saw a sign that said, "Disneyland Left"
So they turned around and went back to San Diego.......

As a fan, I wouldn't be expecting results for a few years. Everyone knew what they was before they came. They simply have to give them a chance, but at least they fired that dumb ass that had been there so long

I've made it from Long Beach to my sister's in San Clemente on the weekend in about 45 minutes.

You can make it from LA to SD in 2 to 2.5 hours with very little to no traffic.


Easily.

You won't do that on a week day between 3pm and 5 pm, I bet

Seriously?




We're talking about the day they play football....





Typically, Sunday.....

Sunday would be okay most of the time, but I have seen it bumper to bumper on the weekends sometimes.

There's a new weather guy on KTLA (TV station in Los Angeles) that drives up every weekend to do the weather on Saturdays and Sundays.
