Feel The Power, Charger Power.

Take a look at all the San Diego Chargers fans in the photo above. It is remarkable! They were all holding yellow Charger Power signs. LACI recently discovered a Chargers video showing quite a bit of San Diego’s passion for the Chargers. Warning: When you watch the video below, you will truly feel the power, Charger power. It was a San Diego thing. Gone now, ripped away forever? Basically the team was stolen from San Diego. To be fair, the citizens of San Diego voted no to a huge downtown stadium project, but that was the city folks, not the entire county wide opinion. Also to be fair, the Bolts did originate out of Los Angeles, only one season, but that was 60 years ago! You would think that 56 years in the same NFL city would mean something. Send this video to the NFL and let them process it. The really well done Chargers video below (found on twitter) clearly shows the real times, the real passion, and of course the original fans. For the record, LACI is just that: Los Angeles Chargers Information, however, when such an outstanding video comes along like this, it really makes you stop and think about: “What the hell happened?” “How did the city of San Diego and its great Chargers fans get totally ripped off?”

The time ran out on San Diego. It was like the only thing that mattered was a stupid ass stadium. Green Bay still plays in a dump, but I bet they would not care if you called it that. Seems like the mayor Kevin Faulconer screwed up big time also. Too little, too late. But at the end of the day, this move is on the NFL and of course: Dean Spanos. He never much cared about the love and passion the San Diego Chargers fans had for their team. Yes their team, the Chargers! I believe his father Alex understood exactly what the Chargers meant to San Diego. All of those amazing tailgate parties, the perfect San Diego weather, all that loyal support and all those years and fans even bringing their kids up as die hard San Diego Chargers fans. When the team left San Diego four years ago, many San Diego “fans” protested by burning quality Chargers stuff like jerseys, hats etc. I never understood burning the SD stuff, but it did give much needed closure to many. So as you watch this Chargers tribute video, please remember that the Chargers were a San Diego thing and always will be. Feel the power. Charger Power!

Regarding the photo above: John Jefferson was a part of a legendary Don “Air” Coryell offensive attack which included quarterback Dan Fouts, receiver Charlie Joiner and tight end Kellen Winslow. He logged three consecutive 1,000-yard seasons with the Chargers, hauling in a total of 199 pass for 3,431 yards and 36 touchdowns while averaging 17.2 yards per catch.
He was named All-Pro and reached the Pro Bowl in each of his three seasons in San Diego, before being traded to the Green Bay Packers ahead of the 1981 season. He would spend four years with the Packers, making another Pro Bowl appearance in 1982, but his production dropped. As a Packer, Jefferson caught 149 passes for 2,253 yards and 11 touchdowns. Following the 1985 season, Jefferson joined the Cleveland Browns for a single season, starting only two games while appearing in seven. He caught three passes for 30 yards. Jefferson retired after that season at 29 years old. In 102 games, he caught 351 passes for 5,714 yards and 47 touchdowns. He was admitted into the ASU Football Hall of Fame in 1979, and was placed into the College Football Hall of Fame in 2002. Jefferson was also honored as a member of the San Diego Chargers 50th Anniversary Team in 2009. Ensuing his on-field career, Jefferson served as a receivers coach at the University of Kansas from 1990-1994, before accepting an administrative role within the athletic department. He moved to Washington, D.C. in 2000 when the NFL called him; he would serve as the director of player development for Washington from 2000 through 2009.
