I don't understand it either. Isn't there enough teams in Cali already without shoehorning a bunch into LA?

I don't see a reason why the Chargers need to leave San Diego. There's so much NFL history associated with that team in that city.
I get it. It's weird that the country's second biggest city doesn't have a football team. It's a growing and successful city, very different from what it was when the Rams left (so is St Louis).
I don't understand why they got preference over the Raiders, who play in a dump of a stadium and got no support, but I get it.
Lawrence Phillips just offed himself. No loss.
I guess he was REALLY partial to St Louis.
Sad. What a wasted life.
Deadspin posted an article with some pretty awesome rips by Rams and Chargers fans.
Owners don't care, they just want $$$ and the city to give them a stadium so they can get more $$$.
I didn't realize what a huge douche Kroenke actually is. The man was named after Enos Slaughter and Stan Musial for fuck's sake.
This is the second time the Rams have taken a shit on St. Louis fans. I don't think they'll be coming back if things don't work out in LA.
Looking at their season-by-season record, I'd say they've shit on their fans well more than twice.
I feel bad for friends of mine who are STL fans. They supported that dogshit franchise for years and years after the Greatest Show on Turf. Went to the games, bought the merch, etc. They deserve better than this.
Chip Kelly to Niners. Good Luck with that.
