We are all Laker fans because no one ever wanted the Clippers.And because we need ONE fucking successful franchise to cling to. But you'd be surprised how popular hockey is here, it’s fucking WEIRD. We are not a huge TV market though - alas, the departure of my Bolts. Too many other things to do if the team (any team)…
It doesn’t help that more than half our city is transplants. LA has the same issue but there are just more of you. And you have more of the ‘see and be seen’ element that will spend more $$ to show up if it becomes trendy, regardless of whether the team sucks. Damn you. Not you personally. I’m just fucking bummed. :(
....please don’t be nice. I want to despise you as a Pats fan because the number of condescending asshole Pats fans here who RAVE about how SUPERIOR Boston & the Pats are, but have never even heard of Steve Grogan - it makes me irrationally angry. And because Reche Caldwell/Marlon McCree/2006-2007(?) playoffs. And…
Hey cheers to you for sticking out that traffic - seriously. I certainly won’t do the same in reverse after basically being told ‘thanks for your cash, but this billionaire family wants more.’ I think increasing number of opposing fans can (unscientific ally, of course) be associated with: (1) decreased…
Ok not saying this is funny bc I shouldn't, I’m a Charger fan, but I snortlaughed. But he was OUR derp-faced loser!!!
Um, as a San Diego native season ticket holder, you’re off base in your assessment of us (which many are) and why ownership will let them move. But I’m sure all those native Angelenos (is that right?) and Raiders fans will buy every ticket to every game to show up and root for the Chargers. They will never pick the…
Maybe. But us San Diegans chose to stay away all year in our (admittedly less than stellar) effort to give the Spanos family back the same ‘fuck you’ they’ve been giving us for the past few years.
Ha! And SHUSH!! That strategy is why businesses look to avoid being based California!! But mostly I’m just super bummed you are highlighting the futility of trying to keep the Chargers in the face of the Spanos family’s abhorrent greed and unstoppable will to shit all over Charger fans for the sake of the almighty…
This is a serious dilemma. Can I continue to root for a Charger team that shit all over me & my home town? After 38 years of Charger fandom, I can muster up hatred for almost every other team. I may just be a fan of whichever team has the qb I want to sleep with most.
Ha! I would cry.

Re-reading this now...as an Ivy-league educated white girl lawyer with 6 tattoos (several done in Iverson’s hey day), I look back at the OMG TATS hysteria with bemusement. #7 is in the offing and I have 0 regrets about any of them. BUT I also am sad for him he never learned to temper his rebel spirit with the wisdom…
No thank you! I would fail miserably in the world of politics...
university- wide *statistics* damn that Ivy League education lol
I had a deeply ingrained awe of the Ivy League mystique and dedicated my high school years to achieving it...then I got there, and met an inordinate number of stupid shits who were there bc of family name/money, I was so disappointed. Not that those schools aren’t full of brilliant people....they definitely are, mine…
They just thought is was funny
It’s not that simple. They want a leader who thinks this bullshit is important enough to react, instead of pretending it's not happening or that it doesn't matter.
And they are free to decide they don’t want to play football for a school that they don’t feel acts in their best interests. Just like anyone is free to breach a contract if it will cost them more to perform than it will to breach.
Curious how the (white) majority of the student body views this? When I was in college at an Ivy League school, there was a hunger strike by black students who camped out in a tent in the middle of campus to demand an African American studies department. Numerous groups of white students had pizza delivered to their…
