I'm sure the LA fans will feel the same and that's why the Chargers are going to move to LA to be treated like second class shit.

Tampa has the same problem. Our weather is warm and we have the beach so people move here from up north and ohio/michigan

Well, the Chargers were/are a larger identity of the city -- considering they've been here for over a half-century.

The only upside I can see is it freeing up money that used to go to the stadium and be used elsewhere.

>>64372864

San Diego pays its mayor $100k/year and its 9 councilmembers $75k/year. They aren't getting rich. They make a little less than half what the Mayor and Council in LA make. The pockets in SD are not being lined at all.

San Diego isn't a dead end city like Cleveland or Buffalo, we still have a lot of things to do in our lives in this glorious city.

>Going surfing
>Hitting up beach town college parties
>Going to Ensenada
>Having the best craft breweries in the country
>World class cuisine
>Hiking and seeing snow during the winter
>Going to Petco Park for a game and going to clubs afterwards
>Comic Con

We will be okay San Diego. No one is going to go to Carson for the chance to get stabbed inside the stadium.

Look OP, you could stop crying like a bitch, and then just pay the Spanos family their 1 billion dollars in public tax money to help build a stadium for their personal profits.. right?

That's always a thing you could do San Diego. And then you won't ever have to cry on local radio and share childhood memories. You could just finance billionaires when ever you have emotions. Let's see how that works out for you

>implying this has anything to do with fans

This has everything to do with TV money. The NFL doesn't give a fuck if the LA Chargers play in an empty stadium, they want 16 weeks a year where the LA market has a game because advertisers only care about one thing: Reach.

The NFL is nothing more than a television show at this point.

Uhhhh no we don't. We haven't had drought concerns since 2011, and it wasn't nearly as bad as it is in California right now.
Might be an issue in like west Texas or in the middle of nowhere, but east Texas isn't in anything resembling a drought. Lakes and reservoirs are at above average levels; the 2 closest lakes are about 12"-24" from overflowing and they've been constantly draining them via the dams.

No they didn't. The NFL has stated multiple times they want 2 team and aren't willing to settle for 1. STL is the only one with an actual stadium plan, and more owners like the Carson deal at this point. It could change in a month, but look for the NFL to tell Kroenke he can't move to LA.

the stadiums end up being owned by the cities anyway. which they can use for whatever event they wish, international soccer matches, concerts, conventions, etc. the teams only rent the stadium.

>>64386799

Hampton Roads is composed of Norfolk + Virginia Beach + Portsmouth + Hampton + Newport News + Chesapeake. About 2 million people total, but the fan-ship would probably stretch across the whole state + parts of North Carolina since the only people who like the Redskins are yankee transplants in NoVa.
