       It's just so crazy that there are 2 teams in the same market who barely have any fans.
    And the 2nd largest market in the country to boot. Crazy indeed.
    This weekend we rock Portland

    Rams should’ve stayed put. They had better support in St Louis than they’ll ever have in LA. Fans ate it up until the relocation plan was obvious.

    Very mediocre NFL this year and anything can happen (except Miami making the playoffs) (which is good).

    Should make for some new blood in the playoffs. 

    So far, maybe a San Francisco/New England GaroppoloBowl?   I think New England will hit a rough patch when they hit their Browns Eagles Ravens Cowboys Texans Chiefs portion of their schedule and look much more human... but with the Chiefs losing 2, home field advantage is theirs to lose.

    By leaving and adding/subtracting teams they monkeyed with the history of a team being there.
    So many other options....and getting to/from a game is a serious chore.
    I lived there when the Rams/Raiders left -- we had a celebration!  
    USC is the team to watch, when they are good, that is the history.  Rams had the history but moved away from it.
    I think the new stadium and the Rams being good the past few years gives them a shot at being 'back' and very much sustainable.
    Poor SD fans.  They so loved their Chargers.
    From what I hear, LA fans would be hard pressed to care much less about anything than the Chargers

    LA is still a Raiders town.   The Chargers should be going to Vegas

    If it wasn't for Camp Pendleton, San Diego and LA would be linked together through a chain of office buildings and Panera Breads so I still think of the Chargers as the San Diego Chargers.  For all I know they may be closer to San Diego than the 49ers are to San Francisco (time commuting is probably a toss-up).

    I'll bet it burns Phillip Rivers' britches that he has to spend his final years playing in a soccer arena.

    Are they even moving any dirt for the new LA and Vegas stadiums?  I never see anything in the news.

    I just realized that Rivers spent his career in SD playing in a shitty baseball stadium. Ha.

    If you have been to the area enough or know people from there, you will know there is a distinct difference between LA and Orange County, and then both of them and SD.  
    Lots of buildings but no, SD is not closer to Carson, nor Inglewood, than SF is from Santa Clara
    All messed up commutes, though, to be sure.

    Haha! Someone make this a commercial for the next Superb Owl. One of those fucked up text messages where somebody not familiar with football actually thinks it's called that due to an auto correct issue.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Also think the ESPN telecast is much better than last year’s edition 
    Yes. McFarland was the best part last year but having him out of the booth was dumb. Witten and that squirrel on his head are better off back on the playing field.
    I couldn't stand him last year but I think it was because of that stupid gimmick. He's a quality analyst though. 

    juggler is really good at sarcasm.

    I think Melvin tried to use him as a punching bag at the end of that play.
