Anyway, if the Chargers moved anywhere it would probably be to LA. Same with Jacksonville, from everything I've read. The Rams are kind of a joke around Missouri (moreso even than the Chiefs), and I'd personally rather hold out for a decent team than inherit somebody else's embarrassment. Beggars can't be choosers, though.

I don't think it is carved in stone that the Chargers will be moving to Los Angeles. Believe it or not San Antonio has a great chance at landing the team. They're just about out of options in San Diego and Los Angeles has nothing but a couple of old broken down college stadiums to house a team now. Which leaves the Alamodome.
Some may criticize the building for being not up to snuff. But the fact is it stands as one of only a few stadiums in North America that could house a franchise immediately. Toronto being another one. I believe that this bodes well for San Antonio. One negative naysayer could come up with 1000 reasons why San Antonio won't get a team anytime soon. But the undeniable fact remains that a team could move here in an instant.
