The fate of San Diego Sports Arena
Interesting. I always thought Arena Group 2000 owned the actual arena, while the city collected rent on the arena property.— November 9, 2017 8:50 a.m.
Rumor: NFL wants Chargers to return to San Diego
I don't disagree with you--which is why any new stadium should not be built by the city.— October 9, 2017 10:36 p.m.
Rumor: NFL wants Chargers to return to San Diego
Don: It was not adapted for football. All the city did was add seats by closing in the horseshoe shaped stadium. That did not adapt the stadium for football, as was evident by the fact that baseball was still played there until 2003. Remember--it was Alex Spanos who first uttered the words, "we need a new stadium", not even 4 years after the stadium was expanded.— October 5, 2017 7:43 p.m.
Rumor: NFL wants Chargers to return to San Diego
Would love to do multiple thumbs up on that comment. One for the concern, and at least one for the question.— October 5, 2017 4:44 p.m.
Rumor: NFL wants Chargers to return to San Diego
The NFL is not coming back here without a new stadium. Period.— October 5, 2017 4:42 p.m.
Breeders’ Cup comes to Del Mar
And you will also be going through metal detectors at the entry gates.— October 4, 2017 7:09 p.m.
Rumor: NFL wants Chargers to return to San Diego
Don: Good to hear.— October 4, 2017 6:24 p.m.
Rumor: NFL wants Chargers to return to San Diego
As have I. And ironically, the city didn't have the proper wheelchair access when the stadium was last expanded, so parts had to be redone again, which became the basis for the Chargers to play rent-free in the stadium the last 10 years, after some seats were lost. Ever sit in field level? During a football game, many of those seats were worthless, as you had to stand to see either over the players on the sideline, or the people standing in front of you who are also trying to see over the players on the sideline.— October 4, 2017 4:49 p.m.
Rumor: NFL wants Chargers to return to San Diego
Thanks for asking. Wondering the same thing.— October 4, 2017 8:44 a.m.
Rumor: NFL wants Chargers to return to San Diego
You know that, and I (and aardvark) know this. Some, apparently, don't want to, or can't, admit this.— October 3, 2017 11:26 p.m.
