    The BANGALS!

    My daughter's favorite team when she was very young... because of the uniforms. Very quickly she became a Chargers fan because of us following Rivers at NC State.

    I always liked the Chargers pretty good... until Fouts/Winslow broke my heart in to tiny little pieces that awful afternoon. Still have nightmares over that one... and Riggins plowing over us in the SB.

    That being said, I'm kind of on the fence regardless. I'm not sure if I'm too keen on having to find a new tailgate group now that the vast majority of my usual group hates the team now, especially when I have a crowd of friends that roots for a different team that'd likely be the front-runners in the event I picked a new one.
    You know there's always an extra row on the Raider boat ;D.

    Spanos is taking about everything remotely unique about the franchise and white washing it. Hows this suppose to help? Don't get me wrong I hope to never see the Baby Blues again, but that would be like Raiders giving up the logo since its founding!

    The team says the logo was for promotional purposes only. It won't appear on their helmets or uniforms. They updated their Twitter avatar today with the logo in baby blue and yellow.

    I understand the fans in San Diego are pissed off at Spanos (as they should be), but after all they did vote down Measure C, unless they were outnumbered by fellow voters who don't care about sports. And if the fans voted "no" as a protest against Spanos, what did they expect him to do next - sell the team?
