    Never get too invested in a team. The owners and owners in it for the bucks too. It's all about economics.

    I'm sure attendance will by abysmal there since the franchise is horrible. Haven't had a winning season since like 2003 or 2004 something like that. Remember before they left LA before in the early 90's and the stadium was empty.

    They didn't leave LA, they left Anaheim. As soon as the stadium is built it will be packed. Get ready for an LA-centric NFL.

    Stan Kroenke - C - Rams

    The Rams and Chargers are expected to be approved for relocation to Inglewood, Cal.

    Stan Kroenke's project is taking the day, with Dean Spanos and Mark Davis' Carson proposal dissolving as soon as the bargaining began. The expectation is that Davis will receive extra NFL loan money as he seeks a new stadium in Oakland, a development that is sure to gall Rams and Chargers fans. Official word could come as early as Tuesday evening. It's an exciting day for football fans in the nation's second-largest market, but an awful betrayal for San Diego and St. Louis.

    Unfortunately that was never an option- I spent a lot of time at that track and was sad to see it go even though it was a dump. The casino will still exist although not at the current site.

    Los Angeles fans are too fru fru. Stick to bball and baseball. They should get one team, not two. Will probably have tea & crumpets at tailgates.

    Season ticket holder 2001-2006. Sad in a way, but closer to me now. I'll stay a fan.

    Rams are the Lakers
    Chargers are the Clippers

    even the colors match.
    but I think Chargers would regret doing this.

    unfortunately according to this description, Chargers are going to LA also
    it's just that the USC stadium can't host two teams yet.
    these owners don't care about "fans"..

    Predicted this one.....Inglewood stadium will be privately financed and land has been cleared and they are ready to build.


    Feel bad for St Louis though....its tough on the fans.

    Inglehood, wow. Not a strong football base in LA, some Raiders fans though. Have not seen any Rams fans, like ever, even in St Louis.
