USC has been our NFL team for the last 20+ years. They draw a huge crowd, a lot of my friends are die hard USC fans. Hoping the Raiders were coming back. I remember my dad taking me to a couple games when I was super young. Everyone in the stadium was always sh*t faced. Raiders fans are loco.

After all Spanos' crap the last couple of years why would ANY of us drive 120+ miles to see the crappy product he puts on the field? Besides, they're not San Diego's team anymore. The new logo looks like they ripped off the Dodgers. They're playing 2 years in a venue with less than 30K seats? LOSERS! I hope Rivers and Gates announce immediate retirement! L.A. fans have told the Chargers in no uncertain terms that they don't want them. The NFL even told Spanos to work things out! Spanos will be selling the team as fast as the NFL will let him. The anger at Spanos is HUGE in these fans.

I wonder if they need help packing!!

Yeah that logo is laughable. I feel for ya'll, in my grad program there's a few native San Diegans and they were all pretty bummed today. My uncle who grew up in St. Louis just tuned out of the NFL this year except for the past couple weeks.

So where do the fans go from now? I'm sure some will tune out of the NFL or become casual fans, some will still be Charger fans, but what about the rest? It seems impossible to give your heart to another team. Are any other squads popular down there?

One thing I've learned though, is that most people aren't die hard fans like us. I can't tell you how many folks I met at last week's Seahawks game who'd only lived in Seattle for a few years and have said sayonara to their old teams. The point I'm trying to make is that most people are fickle and bandwagon readily.

I'm bummed the Raiders didn't relocate back to LA. The NFL basically stuck two teams in LA that well, LA doesn't care for. I know they were concerned about gangs and stuff, but hey it's not 1990 anymore.

San Diego State looks like the football team to watch now!! I know I'll be a casual watcher now. My wife will be happy that I'll have Sunday afternoons free now. His "Dear John" letter was the most classless act imaginable!

The NFL didn't want two teams in L.A. this soon, from what I've heard. Spanos probably forced the Raiders to Vegas with this move. Do the Raiders have a fan base in Vegas? The Chargers have none in L.A. and were even told in no uncertain terms the weren't welcome yet they went anyway. LOSERS!

Then again this may send a message to the rest of the league that owners can't bully their city's into having the taxpayer pay for a billionaire to have his playground paid for by the taxpayers!

Kings? I mean, they have won a Stanely Cup recently.

Lol at that Logo.

And LOL at the chargers saying now thats not the official logo after they got roasted. I bet their design team is still crying from the hate over what clearly looks like something they spent a ton of time on.

Not OT really. They have been a huge pile of fail for the past several years if you haven't noticed. The Clippers are and have been better.

As far as this move the three Chargers, they simply ate following the $$$.

When I heard that he was "rehabbing and preparing", I was like, preparing for what? To be completely carted off the field and straight to the ER on Sunday?
Broken ribs are extremely painful! Thank God I haven't had them but a friend of mine did and he could barely breath, walk, turn, bend or anything. And Nelson has 2!

I've had a couple of bruised ribs when I was a teenager. That was quite painful, EVERYTHING hurts; breathing, walking, moving...
