After fifty plus years of tragic heartache, figured Id give some thought on A DIFFERENT TEAM I can pull for....

Alright, here we go.....

1. Cant be an AFC team, Im old and still dont recognize the AFL as legitimate football.

2. Cant take any team that has beaten the Vikings in an NFCC.

3.  Cant be the Cowboys or one of those 1970’s expansion teams (Tampa Bay, Seattle)....actually ANY EXPANSION team after the 1970’s.  (Carolina)

4. I cheer for the underdog, so it cant be a team that has won a Superbowl.

5. that leaves me with: Lions, Cardinals, Vikings

6. Tried to get Conrad Doblers autograph as a kid (Cardinals) and he told me to, “F off”

7. Cant be a division rival....no matter how pathetic.....

8.  MUST HAVE a bitchin’ logo, colors & helmet combination 

.....oh......SHIT.

nice thought,  but SD was the problem,  they city didnt want to help with a new stadium and now they have no need for one. 
Kinda like Minneapolis wouldn't help ol' Red. Spanos gave nothing in hopes of moving to LA and the NFL to give them a palace for nothing.

the san diego voters shot down the plan to help pay for their part of the stadium,  minnesota came up with a plan eventrually.  it cost spanos $550 million to move to LA so its not like he was running just for the cash.  sure he will likely make more in LA over the long haul,  but he was trying to make something work in SD but eventually said fuck it when the voters said no.
