That happened a couple years ago with my team and I really felt ripped off. Worked out to around $50 for every game I watched that season on Sunday Ticket.

The thing is they dgaf. They know plenty will pony up. Me, fukk 'em. I enjoy watching football. But if push come shove, I believe I'd be just fine without it.

I went from watching 2-3 games a week in 2015 to 1-2 a month last year. I'll read a book instead of watching those self absorbed assholes insult the national anthem.

I used to be a lifelong Eagles fan. Then they signed Michael Vick in 2009. I haven't watched a game since.

It became blatantly obvious that money over rules morals and values with that contract.

I haven't watched the National Felon League since.

I agree, Spanos is an idiot. He fights everyone over contracts...everyone. He's the goose that can turn a golden egg into shit. Moving to L-A was just another dumbass idea. There's too much to do in L-A, win or become a non-event, generally. Look at the Lakers currently. Further, history shows the Chargers will be a non-event until Spanos is not directing.

Where they play; Carson in a soccer team stadium that seats max 25k...for an NFL team. That's for two years until the Inglewood stadium is built. The poor bastards of Inglewood are gonna take a bath financially. Yep, I'm predicting the future.

I didn't start paying attention to Spanos until recently. Now, the Eli GTFO of SD makes sense. I suppose Archie knew the deal from the start and helped Eli accordingly.

Overall, don't make deals with Spanos involving the Chargers.

Edit:

With second thought on the "Don't make deals with Spanos"....the dream of playing in the NFL and the Chargers is the only choice. Boy howdy, that's a lot to go through.

3 sentences - I was trying to keep it short and to the point. I see a major failure with this team. I'm sure the word in locker rooms is don't go to SD if you can help it. This pretty much sums it up: dean-spanos-is-the-masturbating-security-guard-of-nfl-owners

Usually don't start watching until the playoffs. Anymore, halfway through the playoffs.
