Spanos must not be as smart as he thought. He went in thinking he was going to win the vote, and it was 30-2.

Well, after years of wondering what would happen, we know that something will definitely happen. The Chargers and the city both know that they will move in 2017 unless a stadium deal happens this year. There is a finish line to all the back and forth talking about what could happen in the future.

I hope they stay in San Diego. I don’t think there is any need for the NFL in Los Angeles.
All three team: Rams, Chargers, and Raiders already played in Los Angeles and left.

I’d like to see the Chargers stay. They are a great brand for San Diego, and that city should have professional sports teams. The Rams are a fine fit in LA, although I hate seeing St Louis lose a team. The Raiders....could not care less where they play. A move to LA would only help the brand.

Why would it help the brand? They already tried that for 12 years. They can't be moving around all the time. Now they want to go to San Antonio.

I’m guessing that tickets will be available for the Chargers Home game for 2016. Chief fans will grab their share when they visit.

Are the Chiefs finally going to step up and get an NFL-caliber QB this year. It’s a shame to waste such a good team.

It’s really remarkable how badly Spanos played this. He used to be pretty well regarded, but not anymore.

NFL caliber QBs might actually manage the clock, Andy Reid can’t have that.

The Chargers should stay in San Diego. The Raiders can go to L.A., instead - they have roots there and Oakland is a hopeless city that is on the verge of losing the Warriors and A’s, too.

Spring is less than a month away, and the Royals are once again predicted to finish in 4th in the American League Central Division. That’s why they play the games.

...in the event they move Los Angeles.

Spanos really must be a megalomaniac. Where does he think he would move Los Angeles to? Somewhere in the middle of Montana?

I hadn't heard that the A's might move. Where are they considering moving to?

Oakland is only their third home.

At this point a lot of Charger fans want to see Spanos pack his crap and get out of town. The San Diego Super Raiders could light up the sky aye aye at Qualcomm Stadium.

The A's have been "rumored to move" longer than the Raiders or Warriors. Their moving to San Jose goes back 15 years., at least.
