    Tears in Rain, from a Chargers SBN writer

    I feel deeply for them, I really do, this is so much like every deeply engaged fan of any team who marks lifetime moments by them. I have so many of mine related to the Bills.

    By the same token, I'm selfish enough to be glad it isn't me. I feel very very bad for the Chargers fans, but don't really know why San Diego keeps losing teams. 49 years seems like an awful long while to get a deal done. It's 6 years older than our stadium and never was upgraded like ours has been over the years, besides just adding seats. You have to figure with deals voted down, the team just isn't that important to the people in general there.

    I still feel bad for them.

    I went to a game in SD last season (2015) and went to a Raiders game this season (2016) and I can really feel their pain. My niece's boyfriend is a huge Raiders fan and went to his 1st NFL game with us this season. I hope it wasn't his last, but it might have been.

    They are both are past their expiration dates. They tarp off the uppermost sideline deck in Oakland. I've been to the coliseum for baseball too, they're lucky (so far) that the A's don't have a city courting them as hard as Las Vegas is doing with the Raiders.
    Since I have family in the bay area I really hate the thought of the Raiders leaving.
