Chargers’ PR is a grating insult
Absolutely. Spanos has always wanted to stay in San Diego. Right after he discovered how much it would cost him to "join" with Kroenke in Inglewood. Spanos can't sell this team fast enough. Ironically, it could be the best thing for him, and his family for that matter, as he would make boatloads of money by selling the franchise.— March 2, 2016 9:27 a.m.
From “meh” to “yay”
Actually, this place is below Allied Gardens. It is located in Grantville.— February 27, 2016 1:30 p.m.
Chargers redeclare wish for downtown stadium
Don: Not only does city contemplate that, the (former) tailgaters will have no choice. But that would probably lead to another round of bar/restaurant openings and closings, similar as to what happened (and is still happening) around Petco Park.— February 26, 2016 3:54 p.m.
Is the Chargers' favorite city about to get dirtied up?
Had a signature gatherer come to the house yesterday wanting me to sign a petition to put the question of whether a new stadium should be built downtown. Finally got some info out of the guy, telling me it was for the Briggs initiative. I told him "No, thank you". Then he tried the "no new taxes" line, along with the "all the jobs it would create" line as well. At that point, I told him my front porch wasn't the place for the long discussion we would have had, and wished him well.— February 26, 2016 12:23 p.m.
Chargers redeclare wish for downtown stadium
Don: True--they count paid attendance, but you're right. We have gone back and forth I believe about this once before. No fighting.— February 25, 2016 3:59 p.m.
Chargers redeclare wish for downtown stadium
Sure--the only "tailgate" opportunities I see would involve some of the local watering holes in the East Village/Gaslamp areas mounting actual tailgates on walls inside their establishments. Unless, of course, those places will allow individual grills at each table and have numerous porta-potties scattered throughout the area. Now THAT'S tailgating!— February 25, 2016 1:14 p.m.

This alone should slow this initiative down, or perhaps derail it completely.— February 25, 2016 8:40 a.m.
Chargers redeclare wish for downtown stadium
The picture above does not have the stadium in the correct location. It is proposed to be in the area of the current bus maintenance facility, and will also take over Petco Park's Tailgate Park.— February 25, 2016 8:38 a.m.

beninsand: Who pays for the upkeep on those escalators on The Strip in LV? Every time I have been there the last few years, a number of them are always out of order. And yes--I have done my part to pay for their repair.— February 24, 2016 7:49 p.m.
Chargers redeclare wish for downtown stadium
Don: Apparently, Carl DeMaio has spoken out about this rehashed convadium plan, and he is against it (whether it's because of Fred Maas or not, who knows?), so we should expect to hear nothing but bad things regarding this plan on his radio show. At least he and I agree on something.— February 24, 2016 7:47 p.m.
