Will Chargers leave for LA? Which newspaper d'ya read?
The NFL does not want to be in downtown LA--but they are drooling about an area adjacent to Dodger Stadium. Guggenheim Partners, who now own the Dodgers, stand to make billions off of the Dodgers new TV contract, and might decide that they want to build a stadium on that adjacent property. Don't forget that Guggenheim Partners were one of the rumored parties that were interested in purchasing AEG. IMO, there is a decent chance that a new football stadium will be built in LA before one is built in San Diego. Whether the Chargers will be the team (or a team) moving there, only time will tell. Maybe Spanos will just give up waiting for the city to unload the armored car at his feet to build a new stadium in San Diego and sell the club to other interests.— March 17, 2013 11:43 a.m.

Judge Prager OKs convention center expansion tax
LPH--The Chargers SHOULD put their plan on the ballot--maybe then we can all finally see just what their complete stadium plans are.— March 11, 2013 7:23 p.m.
Judge Prager OKs convention center expansion tax
Don--OK, perhaps the Chargers won't appeal, but didn't they infer that they would be ready to show their great plans of a new stadium/CC combo once the tax was ruled illegal? I eagerly await a response from the Chargers mouthpiece after this initial decision (I say initial because I would bet this is going to continue for quite some time).— March 11, 2013 5:38 p.m.
Judge Prager OKs convention center expansion tax
I am not totally surprised by this, as this is, after all, the City of San Diego. Would the Chargers be one of the parties that will appeal this ruling?— March 11, 2013 3:59 p.m.
Chargers hawking combined convention center/roofed stadium
Don--I know they have discussed this before, but instead of showing a picture (basically) of Qwest Field in Seattle superimposed over the East Village/busyard site, show the citizens of the area what they actually propose. Things like capacity of the stadium, how this great fabric roof will look open and closed, the cost of the stadium, how it will be financed--you know, just little things like that. Let's see their artist's renderings of what they propose. Of course, the big thing would be, how would it be financed, and who would pay what (and dare I say, how much the city would be stuck paying--and then, how much more they would have to pay after the rosy projections are found to not work, similar to Petco Park).— March 9, 2013 10:06 a.m.
Chargers hawking combined convention center/roofed stadium
Fabiani and the Chargers stand ready to present an alternate proposal? The surcharge, er, tax, has to ruled illegal before the Chargers show us their proposal? Show it now--what would it hurt? It's only been about 10 years or so--the team ought to have a plan they can show to the public by now.— March 8, 2013 10:04 p.m.
