    Default When are the Chargers moving on from LA?

    An important question that almost no one is asking, but many are providing a strong basis for.

    https://www.foxnews.com/sports/phili...fans-home-game (Rivers is saddened by the lack of Chargers' fans in LA)

    https://www.watchfantom.com/the-san-...isappointment/ (Starts off by claiming that LA didn't want the Chargers to move their in the 1st place.)

    https://www.nytimes.com/2019/12/19/s...wner-care.html (Vikings' fans out number Chargers' fans 8-1 in a game played in LA last year.)

    https://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2019/11...es-london-move (Tries to blame the lack of Charger's fans on them playing in such a small stadium, only to later acknowledge that opposing fans are showing up to the games.)

    As long as they're selling seats they don't care what fanbase ponys up the dough

    They have a 20-year lease signed with the city through the new stadium. I’m sure there are ways to get out of that, but I don’t think they’re going anywhere soon.

    The Chargers don't even care if they sell seats. They're just piggybacking off of the Rams at this point. I don't see any reason for them to leave L.A.

    They could simply rename themselves the Green Bay Steelers and they'll have no problem selling out every game.
    I miss the old Mile High Stadium.

    With it being S Cal, I'd go with 1 of the following:
    San Francisco Raiders
    Seattle Raiders
    San Francisco Seahawks
    Seattle 49ers

    XFL Closes off all upper decks at every stadium.

    XFL tickets were going for NFL prices in St. Louis. Get a clue.

    Relocation was awful for every single team involved.

    LA rams sell tickets to 49er fans, never will have a home field advantage.

    Raiders lose their passionate base to Vegas transplants

    Chargers lose all their fans.

    They will have to fill the stadium with mannequins in the below .500 years.

    And i will make you suffer through all of it.

    Lol. The Rams value has tripled in the last four years to almost $4 billion and their the fourth most valuable team in the league. It didn’t hurt them one damn bit.

    good to know you think never having a home field advantage doesnt hurt.


    Have you ever even played football on any level? or just sitting up there with your monocle like $tank counting dollars?

    Yeah, if they were in St. Louis they’d have more cap room. Or something.
