For the second time in as many years, an NFL franchise is moving to Los Angeles. In 2016, it was St. Louis that saw the Rams head West, and in 2017, it’s San Diego’s turn. The club officially made the announcement on Thursday and were quick to change their Twitter handle.

The news will again resonate with Cleveland Browns fans, who know the feeling of losing a franchise. The difference is that I can’t see St. Louis or San Diego getting their team back, and who really wants two franchises in Los Angeles anyway?
To be honest, been here 13 years and haven't met a single person in LA who has been jonesing for two NFL teams. Won't be easy to make work.

And for their new logo? What in the world is this, in terms of [lack of] creativity?

Are they the Chargers or the Dodgers?
