It's not over. Chargers given time to woo San Diego
don bauder Don't forget that there would also be a hefty relocation fee also. Last night, one of the reporters I was watching said one of the owners confirmed to him that Kroenke will pay a $550 million. He was give the option of paying $64 million a year for 10 years, but he told the committee he would just right them a check for the $550 million.— January 13, 2016 2:31 p.m.

don bauder, read my comment again> said any moron knew that Carson was NOT happening. You were definitely not one of those aforementioned morons who thought Carson was real— January 13, 2016 2:22 p.m.

And exactly which name did you post under while saying Carson was all smoke and mirrors??? Any moron, except JDean Spanos, John Ogre. David Benz, or JohnnyO I guess, knew that Carson was not happening.— January 13, 2016 6:41 a.m.
It's not over. Chargers given time to woo San Diego
The Jacksonville Jaguars will not be moving to San Diego. Shahid Khan also owns Fulham F.C.. Jacksonville will be the team that relocates to London, in all likelihood to Wembley, probably within five years. The Cleveland Browns are an inappropriate example. The Browns' intellectual property was kept in suspended animation by the NFL. The current Browns are an expansion team.— January 13, 2016 6:36 a.m.

I find it interesting that Jerry Jones is the one who proposed the Rams with a team TBD. A few years ago, he couldn't get many of the other owners to even agree with him on the time of day. It seems now that he holds more sway than all but a couple of owners. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but don't the Chargers have to opt out of their lease within the next 3 or 4 weeks if they want to leave now? Better off than Davis I guess, who doesn't even have a lease for next year. If, and it may be a big if, Spanos decides to move the team, I would not bet against the Raiders moving to San Diego. I guess the fun part is yet to come.— January 12, 2016 7:10 p.m.

Also, if the Chargers decline that option, the Raiders will have the option to relocate.— January 12, 2016 5:50 p.m.
Chargers head opposed to Inglewood move
don bauder the vote was 30-2 in favor of the Rams moving to Los Angeles for sure, possibly with the Chargers, who were given the option to move also, albeit as a tenant, not a co owner. They have the option to stay in San Diego for the time being, but have to come to terms by January of 2017.— January 12, 2016 5:42 p.m.

It has been reported that the Inglewood project was only 4 votes shy, 20-12. So much for Chargers having 17 to 20 votes lined up on their side. After the vote, the LA committee met with Spanos and Davis. There is a new proposal said to be on the table and being discussed, with a vote likely happening soon. Kind of makes it seem that one of them will be left standing when the music stops, but with maybe a little bone tossed to them by the NFL. If that be the case, I'd say Davis is the odd man out.— January 12, 2016 3:32 p.m.

don bauder it was reported a few minutes ago that a vote has taken place and neither proposal received sufficient votes to pass. It was noted, though, that the Inglewood proposal received the most votes.— January 12, 2016 2:51 p.m.

Perhaps you missed this past weekends playoff game in Minnesota, that of the sub zero temperatures, not even counting wind chill, which at times was measured at -23 degrees. Or perhaps last years January game in Green Bay, a high temperature of 5 degrees below zero with a wind chill of 20 below. The NFL currently has no predetermined temperature reading that would postpone a game. The NFL makes it's money from the TV broadcast and the site is determined years in advance and right now the rotation is about 10 years in between chances to host a Super Bowl. I would have to believe that the NFL is more than willing to take a chance that 3 years out, the weather will be ok.— January 11, 2016 11:19 p.m.
