Then there's the SJW issues the league is supporting that aren't very popular with much of their fan base.
OT - So why again did the NFL move 2 teams to LA?
- Thread starter T2Kplus10
- Start date

Exactly. Why do fools attend these games. It's like going to work. 25 years ago I remember there were two bars that had out of market games .. Zupko's in Dunellen and Poor Billy's in Woodbridge ( there may have been other but those are the two I remember). Now you can catch an out of market game at just about any bar. My brother an I used to travel out to Cincinnati once or twice a year to catch a Bengals game. Now I can just walk down to a bar and catch the game on a big HD Tv. Why bother attending games?
Flying back from SoCal last fall, some millenial dudes (SoCal natives I assume) sitting in front of me on the plane were talking about NFL teams in LA. The consensus from my eavesdropping was that the Rams weren't their team, but they might get into them (they had other favorites). As for the Chargers, fuhggedaboutit.
To use Jeff Fisher's immortal words, LA is going to have to put up with a few years of 7 and 9 BS, and worse than that. Eagles play at Chargers on 10/1 and at the Rams on 12/10. Tempting to fly out and take a row of empty seats to myself for both games, but RU/OSU is 9/30.
How is it that all the NFC East and NFC West teams play each other this year?

All NFL fans have to essentially deal with years of 7-9 records. That is IMHO the reason why interest in the league has decreased. Parity is just a code word for mediocrity.
It's only misleading if they actually sold out, but in fact the Chargers, for their home opener, could not sell out that 27,000-seat soccer stadium. Until they do,the "artificial cap" on their attendance is Los Angeles not caring.
You haven't been paying much attention. Each division plays another division EVERY year. This year, it's just time for that pairing again.
NFL schedules are easy -- six games against your own division, four games against another division, four games against another division in the other conference, and two games against the team that finished in the same place as you in the two divisions you don't play against in your conference.
That you can't read?
"The owners on Wednesday paved the way for the Chargers to move when they approved a proposal to let the team raise $325 million to pay for half of the $650 million relocation fee that would be required for it to move to Los Angeles."
I don't track Moon now that he is retired. So I have no clue if he is or isn't a racist. Others being racist doesn't somehow give him a pass to be one himself. So I hope he isn't.
I loved Warren Moon in the NFL. We have had our Dynasty Fantasy League since 95, and for several years he was my main gun at QB. We start 2 QBs, and due to bad drafting, I was down to only having one starter with people trying to fleece me in trade. I rode Moon n Galloway to several wins. One game was 5 TDs for him and 3 for Joey. Sweet!!!!
QUALCOMM is a dump and the Spanos' buffoons.
That being said Charger love in SD runs deep. The blackouts were few and far between and in1 -15 Mike Riley seasons or their ilk. Would not be surprised to see the Charges return after the NFL engineers getting the Spanos' out.

I'm not usually one to judge, but when you're reliving scores in fantasy football games 20 years after the fact, it's time to close out that waiver wire tab on your browser & get some fresh air.
Dude, Warren Moon was mentioned, and I recalled a memory pertaining to him. Perhaps you should worry about your own affairs.
Rams are wearing their 70's Eric Dickerson helmets tonight, but in the banana yellow color rush unis.
Both uniforms look terrible.
I'm talking about Jack Youngblood blue jerseys.
Kaepernick killed football in SF.
That's so crazy and so NFL. On one hand it slightly reminds me of seat donations colleges want for season tickets purchases - but that's before the crazy prices. Those prices remind me of the carbon tax schemes where brokers invented a scheme to just sell/tax air. NFL brass really just see public as suckers. Maybe they are right - or were
How much were the licenses for Jets and Giants in NYC? Were there different costs for the same seats by team?
Jets & Giants PSL's were priced differently from what I recall.
Giants were more expensive and they were not as flexible as the Jjets, who had a harder time selling PSL's.
My Jets seats starting price for the PSL's was $5K per seat but I negotiated them down by 1/2. Now they ain't worth SH*T !!
