Say hello to LA: Rams & Chargers on the move

[Kindoy]

Well, weird day for me as a Redskins fan born & raised in LA. I'm 22 years old, the Rams moved out of LA when I was all of 1 year old. I came to the Redskins in '04 in a very unconventional way (long story), as many LA football fans do with their respective teams. I'm about 15 minutes from where the new stadium is going up - will definitely be pulling for them to succeed.

I agree with many in the thread, don't think the Chargers would do well here. If 2 LA teams happens it should be Rams / Raiders. Chargers seem to me to have the least support of the three teams amongst the people I know or come into contact with, and their fans are definitely the most fair-weather of the three fan bases. I'd like to see them stay in San Diego.

I do, however, think the NFL can do well in LA now. The NFL is a different product than it was 20+ years ago. Popularity is at an all time high, as is the glamour of the game if you will. The name "LA Rams" is iconic, appeals to new & old fans, people want in.
