New Fan! F the Chargers
Hello new family - I'm born and raised in San Diego was a lifelong Chargers fan until they left us for our rival city. Continuing to root for them is like cheering while someone else bangs your wife. I've been waiting to choose a new team until I happened to be in a random NFL city for whatever reason and could attend a home game. My rules before selecting a team were as follows:
- Must be a historically bad team (I refused to pick a winning legacy team: Packers, Patriots, Chiefs)
- Must be in an exciting division (AFC East is decent enough, AFC South would've felt boring to me)
- Must not dislike the team's city in baseball (I'm a SD Padres loyalist and so hate Arizona, SF, Denver)
This has been a decision 9 years in the making. I'm temporarily living in Lower East Side and the Jets seems just terrible enough, and plagued by bad ownership and coaching -- to be the perfect fit.
I'm all-in, for life. See you Sept 20th at Metlife. Go Jets baby!
