@msmallm2: St. Louis comes up with $400 mil of public money. OAK does nothing and gets league money and keeps their team. What a time to be alive.


Why is Oakland staying? I don't get it.

How is this a good thing for San Diego Fans.

Because the Chargers owner loving hates the Rams owner, just like we all do, so having the "option" to form a partnership with the Rams owner is not something he's going to be eager about doing.

Been a St Louis fan since I was a small boy... I remember the good times, screaming for Steve Bono to replace an ineffective Tony Banks. It's been quite a ride.

What do I do now? I don't live in Missouri anymore, I haven't for a decade, so I don't feel too bad following the Rams based on location alone.

On the other hand, I have absolutely no connection to LA, my wife is a Seahawks fan, I lived in Washington for five years and I'll be moving back to Washington in the future; can I switch to the Seahawks, even though they are a division rival? That feels really wrong, but maybe I should just pull the bandaid off now.

On the third hand, Kroenke and the NFL hosed us over, and this game is loving doomed once concussion liability gets too expensive. Maybe I should just get out a bit early? It's never cool to be the last person at the party.

Help me TFF

eh. Go with the Seahawks and remove marital strife. Blame Kroenke if anyone gives you poo poo. It's not like being a brand new Seahawks fan is a novel thing.

I was talking to peachy Peach about kissy Kiss. He bought me a soda.
Goodell talked Mark Davis into taking a league-sourced "stadium fund" bribe to gently caress Dean Spanos in the rear end, and will still probably be the 2nd team to LA, and it won't even have to be with Kroenke bc of "option" thing

If that was the case, they would have just voted the intial Rams/Chargers deal through.

Spanos really really doesn't want to share a stadium with Kroenke.

So now it's possible Spanos is stuck in SD AND he doesn't get any money?

Two options, both bad for him. Go with Kroenke and be second fiddle forever, stay in San Diego where everyone hates you but you're at least the only game in town

gently caress Kroenke.

Fair, but the logistical roadblock's been cleared even if Dean's extra super butt hurt after having to take the bottom bunk under ol' stinky farts Kroenke up top.

I've said this entire process that somehow the Chargers will end up losers in all of this because they've never won anything (shhh forget about '61) and don't know how to win. Given that they've fully committed to asking the fans to kiss their asses, I want nothing but the worst for the team at this point so it's nice to root against a loser.

After everything that's happened I just don't think that's feasible. San Diego hates him and they're never going to help him build a stadium. I really don't think Qualcomm is that bad, but eventually they'll need something new.
