Closing Thoughts

Whatever mixed emotions you’re feeling about this, the one that stands out the most should be excitement.

However mild, it’s the opportunity of a lifetime to see two teams battle it out for Los Angeles in the NFL.

Rams and Chargers aren’t the best teams in the league by any means, but you have to like that now the sports world in one of the biggest markets in the world has two of everything.

The relocation process is just getting started. Just like the Rams before them, the team will have to find new ways to stick together.

They won’t have to go through the drama of a first overall pick versus a struggling veteran, as Philip Rivers is their go-to guy.

Let’s hope they do this right.
