  • Any question about issues selling tickets for the Chargers in LA?   It's Wednesday and there are still tickets available for their home opener this Sunday in a stadium that only holds 27,000 people.  

  • The Rams couldn't even draw a decent crowd with $6 tickets for the home opener.

    LA didn't need or really want 1 team let alone 2.  The Rams at least have some sort of following but for the 500th time, the Raiders are the most popular team in LA.  The Rams are a distant 2nd and the Chargers aren't even in the race.  Wait till that little soccer stadium is filled with fans of the opposing team to watch the Chargers.

    Texas has been threatening to succeed for decades. Texans really look down on the rest of us.

    in 1979 when Yankees like me were moving there in droves, they wanted to pull the trigger on succeeding to keep us out. Texas really is its own little country. When I was there it was perfectly legal to drink and drive with a gun in the vehicle, you just could not drive drunk. They had drive thru liquor stores. 

    We haven't just been threatening to "succeed."

    Oh....the NFL most definitely tried (and succeeded) to force the fit.   Though I guess they could have gotten nowhere with that if they did not have an owner (Kroenke) who was willing to put up most of the money to build the stadium....in the belief that he will make a pile more money from it.    I suspect that the state of California said nyet when it came to putting in money.  And correct me if I am wrong....the new stadium ibeing built  is not actually in the City of Los Angeles proper...but in some suburb. Ergo I suspect that the city/county didn't contribute much to the stadium.

    But, I guess it is a fair deal for LA......they just got named host of the 2028 Summer Olympics....and that Stadium is supposed to be a prime venue.
