Remember just last year how the media was talking about how the Chargers dont have any fans in LA-"okay true enough,that cant be debated" I had no problem at all with them reporting THOSE facts. But what got me about their biased view on LA is they ALSO lumped in Ram fans there in the same catagory making the false statement-"They wont even support one." referring to Ram fans.That is such BS.
Okay sure thats true that in the second half of the season in their first year back in LA there were a lot of empty seats and that starting the first half of the season last year,it was the same but that was because for a while there,Kroneke looked like he was lying to the fans when he said he was committed to winning in LA.
Hard to take the guy serious when he brought along Jeff Fisher with him there.I was flabbergasted when he did that. I never in my wildest imaginations ever thought he would so such a stupid foolish thing is what it looked like at the time. I guarantee you MANY in LA thought the same thing,that they were thinking the same thing i was that he did not care about winning.
so I could not blame the people in LA for staying away from the LA coliseum in the second half of the 2016 season. who in their right mind would want to support a team where the owner does not give a crap about winning? Man my heart goes out to Raider fans having to put up with the biggest idiot owner in the world. The fans stayed away because Fisher brought such a dull product to the field and who can blame them in the least? I now understand WHY he brought Fisher along now though. Since he had been through relocation before with the Houston Oilers,he wanted a coach who could guide them through that and Fisher knew what to expects o he brought him along just for that reason alone.
Then when the season began last year,unfortunately even though they had a new coach,the bad taste of Jeff Fisher was STILL in their mouths so they still stayed away in the beginning.Now THAT i did not agree with. See Ram fans in LA will support a team if they are not winning just as long as the owner proves he is TRYING to win.That did not appear to be the case with Kroneke. There is a reason they survived in LA for 49 years before the move to st louis.Other than the early 90's,they were always in the top 5 in league attendance in their 49 year history up till 1994.
Here is proof they are not fair weather fans as well.at LEAST back in the old days that is.Now with technology these days that may not be the case anymore but back before cable was big,even the years they were bad,they always had great fan support as big as any other NFL team back in the old days.
The one year the Chargers played in LA in 1960 before wisely seeing LA would not support the chargers hense the move to san diego,despite the fact they had 8-4 record and made it as far as the AFC title game,they only averaged 11,000 fans per game. The Rams on the other hand,they had almost the same identical record but on the losing side,only winning 4 games that year.Yet despite that,THEY averaged 72,000 per game that year.
This link here is asking are the Rams finally LA's team?

uh they have ALWAYS been LA's team and everybody in LA reading this thread should call out all those liars in the media and confront them face to face on ESPN they are clueless in their babble that LA does not even support one team when the history proves they have ALWAYS supported them even in the down times again the 90's being the exception and that was because as we all know,they hated the owner,not because of the poor play on the field.
shut up LAMESTREAM media,LA DOES support ONE NFL football team and always has.the Rams.:blah: they are clueless in their babble.
