So the plan all along was to look for buyer in 2024. Dea doesn’t want to wait. She wants her money now and the others don’t have it. If this only about timing (2021 v 2024), sell it now. Otherwise, they’ll be twisting in the wind for the next few years like they were the last few years in San Diego. The LA move was all about increasing the value of the team and Dea wants to realize that now and get debt relief. -
Spanos has no fans in LA. Who is going to buy season tickets? This is now a money losing franchise. Not to many people in the world could screw the Golden Goose like the Spanii did.Now, if you excuse me, I have some Charger memories to suppress.
The Wasted Decade is done.

Whoa... had to stop working to sit with this.
macro sized things to consider that frankly are above my head
on the surface this instantly looks like a positive
but like all complicated matters, it was quickly turn to be the worst thing ever, in some way/shape/form any of us may not be able to see
just when I started feeling comfortable with the moves the Spanos have made, it can all change.
I don’t see a different owner can be worse, but I suppose it’s possible
Im also conflicted about them coming back home if that’s part of it.
looking forward to following this thread and reading posts from the handful of you who are more familiar with the world of business and strategy
heres hoping for the bestG-Ro knows.Comment

Why would we expect that living in a different zip code would give Dean more business acumen, gravitas, common sense, whatever?Originally posted by Formula 21 View Post
I understand my opinion of the Spanii is through the media - so a very small telescope. But I have always thought being gifted the team and not having to work for anything made him a terrible business person. Now Jerrah in Texas - that guy has some gonads to make a deal. Spanos - none of either the acumen or gonads to make a deal.
Again, thats just looking at the decisions he has made as an observer. I mean, the guy had Jim Steeg on staff and yet hired Mark Fabiani to "build a stadium" - wink wink. Now I know teh city was a cluster, the city council, mayor, all of it - was a cluster. But Dean was and probably still is a cluster as a business person. So him not having money, not a surprise.Comment

As Kevin Acee used to say, Dean was born on third base and couldn’t scoreComment

I have read as the oldest child in a Greek family, Dean was top of the list to inherit the team. I do not think he worked at a food truck like his Dad did selling sandwiches to the workers and moved on to apartments, etc that Alex didOriginally posted by jamrock View Post
Its obvious instead of being gifted the team - Dean should have been given a Subway (or just a franchise) to run - learn basic business, have some skin in the game, hire, fire etc. Dean - anytime I see him he has this perplexed look on his face. Very obtuse, dense, not smart is the way I see himComment
