Just gotta enjoy the ride, I guess. At least those were fun times with MC Hammer, Neon Deion, and the Super Bowl appearances. Not every team you root for will have a rich history of winning championships.

This had to have been posted at 9:00 last night or it's little more than drool off your lip.

NOBODY on earth thought the Pats would come back mid way through the third.

Cripes.

I'm a Packers fan who was rooting for the Falcons to win that game. I've witnessed the improbable foil the Packers a lot recently - and especially the thorough incapability of making any defensive stops when the game is on the line. It was that jadedness that kept my expectations of a Falcons victory tempered. I wasn't fully expecting a Pats comeback, but was ready for it.

Nobody? I certainly wasn't comfortable with that lead. I've seen it too many times with the Patriots; they find a way, and often it's due to the other team's overconfidence.

That's not saying that you thought the Patriots were going to win.

Agree that Falcons will not implode. They have a great team as was shown in the NFC playoffs and first 3 Qs of SB. Frankly, their D was gassed at the end because of the obscene number of plays the Pats offense had - caught the Falcons on their heels, or talons whatever, and didn't let go. There was some luck by the Pats and some bad plays called by the Falcons toward the end. Atlantla will be a contender again next season.

So being a tenant in Kroenke's stadium is better than this? He walked away from this proposal to pursue a downtown stadium, not wanting the cheaper option in Mission Valley. He didn't leave for a better stadium deal. He left to increase the value of the franchise, i.e. a money grab.

Mission Valley > Inglewood


That is a nice stadium, but this is a palace.

Remember there's an entire fanbase here in San Diego that would give their left nut to change places with you. Losing your team is far worse than having them blow a Super Bowl. Our pain stays while you guys get to open a new stadium as NFC Champs in 8 months.

Losing the Chargers is like having a wart removed.....

I was really pulling for the Falcons last night, after the loss I starting feeling so badly that I had to remind myself that I'm not a Falcons fan. At some point you just want other fans like yourself whos team has never won to finally break thru, I'm still shaking my head

Let me know if you hear anything.....
