Chargers to stay in San Diego for 2016
Womens Von Miller Jersey SAN DIEGO -- Chargers chairman Dean Spanos said Friday that the team will stay in San Diego for the 2016 season but has an agreement with the Rams to move to Los Angeles if a long-term stadium solution to remain in the city isn't worked out. Spanos delivered the news in a message to Chargers fans posted on the team's website. "Today I decided our team will stay in San Diego for the 2016 season and I hope for the long term in a new stadium," he said. "I have met with Mayor [Kevin] Faulconer and Supervisor [Ron] Roberts and I look forward to working closely with them and the business community to resolve our stadium dilemma. We have an option and an agreement with the Los Angeles Rams to go to Inglewood in the next year, but my focus is on San Diego." Virgil Green Youth Jersey According to the relocation agreement between the teams, the Chargers have a one-year window that ends on Jan. 15, 2017, to move to Los Angeles as the second team at the Inglewood project, which is set to be completed by the 2019 season. The Chargers can extend that option to Jan. 15, 2018, if a referendum for public financing in San Diego is not approved before Nov. 15 of this year. "We look forward to partnering with the Chargers in Inglewood, but the decision of course is Dean's to make," Rams owner Stan Kroenke said in a statement. The Chargers believe they could know within two to three months whether a new stadium deal is realistic in San Diego, sources told ESPN's Jim Trotter. Steve Atwater Kids Jersey Faulconer and Roberts met with Spanos at his La Jolla home Friday. They contend that building a new stadium at the Qualcomm site in Mission Valley would be quicker and cheaper than the Chargers' desire to build a stadium downtown as part of a noncontiguous expansion of the convention center. A spokesman for Faulconer said Mark Fabiani, who has led the Chargers' stadium push for 15 years, was not at the meeting. It wasn't immediately clear whether Fabiani, who has attacked Faulconer's proposals for the past year, will be involved when negotiations resume. "We appreciate Mr. Spanos' commitment to staying in San Diego for the 2016 season to work with the region on a stadium solution,'' Faulconer and Roberts said in a joint statement. "We look forward to discussing his vision for a new San Diego home for the Chargers, and will be working with him and our negotiating team on a fair and viable plan to put before voters. We have agreed to meet again in the near future.'' http://www.officialbroncosnflauthentic.com/WOMENS_YOUTH_SHANNON_SHARPE_JERSEY.html In a statement, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell "pledged the league's full support" in helping Spanos keep the Chargers in San Diego.
