Los Angeles Super Chokers

You simply can’t make this stuff up.
The San Diego Los Angeles Chargers of Carson did it again. They choked.
As a fourth-generation San Diegan, I can’t tell you how many times my dad/grandfather/uncles told me the Chargers were always so good at snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.
Well, they didn’t disappoint this past Sunday. The LA Chargers couldn’t get the freakin’ football across the freakin’ goal line after multiple downs starting inches away. They threw another one away, losing to the Titans 23-20, and moving to their mid-season standard of 2-5.

This used to be our problem. This used to be the performance that depressed us for days to come. And now, we just laugh.
We laugh because it’s the same ol’ same ol.’ But we also laugh because it is the complete representation of the LA Chargers’ ownership - ineptitude.
Not only us, but the nation is laughing at this franchise. They have little-to-no following in LA. They cater only to the adulterous fans here in SD.

And you know more of that is to come.
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell still thinks the Chargers in LA is a viable option.
Who knows?
