[Rams the Legends live on]

I just signed up for this site. How life goes full circle. I was born in Downey and my Dad was always a Rams fan. I followed the Rams and actually dated a Rams Cheerleader when I managed a bank in Fullerton, (their last year in Anaheim). Then I moved to Oceanside (bought a place) and became a full time San Diego Chargers fan. I've had season tickets for 9 years. I am treating this move as a sign. It happened the day before the anniversary of the day my dad passed and brought back a flood of good Rams memories. I remember my dad and mom taking me camping the weekend of the pre-season game that Dickerson played against the Chargers, unfortunately he got knocked out of the game by a Chargers safety. I was bummed by that. But Dickerson made up for that and then some... Cough H.O.F. career.

Long story aside. I hope I'm welcomed back to the Ram family. I can't support the Spanos family and the way they are doing things. I thought this day might come so I put a $100 deposit for tickets to Inglewood last year when they went on sale. As a former Los Angeles County resident and Orange County resident, I'm embarrassed by they way they are doing business. I really like the Rams new coach McVay and I know it's going to take a couple years to recover from Fishers bad drafts. I loved Wade Philips in SD so I think the Rams made a nice hire there.

When players leave teams we still follow the team. But what do you do when the team abandon's its fan base? I found out about the move by a cheesy Dear John letter from Spanos. He didn't even have a press conference. He hasn't welcomed San Diego fans to follow his Los Angeles Chargers. FIGHTFORLA is the motto. But they are based in Costa Mesa and playing in Carson (rumor is they want to charge double for tickets so they can make the same amount they did at QUALCOMM, supposedly they think the more intimate venue should command a premium). All I've received from the Chargers since that time is an email with next seasons opponents.. It's amazing. Now that, I'm done venting.

What's a good forum to find some people to tailgate with? I had a big space at QUALCOMM but ill probably take the Train to LA. I don't mind kicking in some dollars for good food and nice people. A nice lady on the Chargers forum told me about this site.

Also how are the Rams fans road trips? I want to go to Dallas next season.

Welcome aboard bro

CHARGERS COACH ANTHONY LYNN
CUSSES, SCREWUP

BREAKING NEWS

1ST TIME FLUB

Rough start for new L.A. Chargers head coach Anthony Lynn ... who misnamed his team and then CUSSED on live TV during his introductory news conference.

It started off with Lynn referring to the team as the San Diego Chargers (he quickly caught that mistake) ... but it got worse when he was telling a story about his mentor, Bill Walsh, and dropped an S-bomb.

Speaking of s*** ... at least the team got rid of that terrible logo.

How 'bout that original coaching staff though:

[aeneas1]

man, that first one was pretty damn funny....

[Hacksaw]

Spanos is a dick. And a limp one at that.

How 'bout that original coaching staff though:

there's a great documentary out there, nfl films or hbo, about those early '60s powerhouse chargers teams, they were all jacked up on steroids, before anyone had really heard of steroids in pro sports, it was part of a sophisticated weightlifting program, before nfl teams had specialized weightlifting and conditioning programs, gillman brought in a bodybuilder to run it.... in the doc the great ron mix said that every day, in the cafeteria, someone would make the rounds and dispense "little pills" along with little paper cups filled with water, none of the players thought anything about it, nor did it it occur to anyone to ask about them, they just assumed they were supplements, mix added that in those days you just trusted the coaches, they wouldn't do anything to harm you, they were there to make you stronger, better and healthier...
