-
2017. What was once unthinkable has become reality. The San Diego Chargers are now the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chargersâ move is the NFLâs grandest experiment yet. A test of civic pride, media market rights, and real estate deals. Money, power, and just a little bit of football. In our final episode, we'll look at where things stand. What happens when one city loses its team and another city gains it? How has that move redefined success for the NFL in the future? And how does San Diego move on as America's biggest football widow?

January 2015. New San Diego mayor Kevin Faulconer triumphantly declared in his first State of the City address that he would be assembling a group of civic leaders to âkeep the Chargers in San Diego where they belong.â But the Chargers were no longer the only team eyeing a move to Los Angeles. The Rams and Raiders, former Angelenos themselves, were also mulling a move back. This episode chronicles the final two years of the San Diego Chargers. When the city was confronted with the errors of its past, the political and financial realities of its present, and the great unknown of its future, and the team was faced with its ultimate choice.

By the start of the 21st century, the Chargers franchise was in shambles. They were the worst team in football, playing in an aging and increasingly obsolete stadium. But change was coming. On the field, the organization underwent one of the most successful rebuilds ever accomplished in football, producing a dominant team that won five AFC West titles in six years. Off the field, the Chargers hired longtime political messaging wiz Mark Fabiani to get a stadium deal done. What could possibly go wrong?

As the nineties came to a close, two parallel crises were slowly building in San Diego. The first was at City Hall, where the cityâs pension system was pushing the city to the brink of financial ruin. The second was with the Chargers, whose elite prospect QB Ryan Leaf was about to take the field. We talk to Leaf, and the policymakers who were there.
