And still no playoff wins in 2 decades. Sweet!!!

That's what makes it even sadder for the Chargers, your organization has been more successful yet we still have a way bigger fanbase in your city. They'd rather watch us lose then watch you win.

They dont actually care about your team. It's why you ranked 31st in fan equity. They are just chomos who go to the games to get drunk and fight. They couldn't name 4 active players and 2 historic Raiders players. Stop kidding yourself.

What the hell is fan equity and if people didn't care about our team why did we sell $550M in season tickets ($250M projected) while the Chargers only sold $100M in season tickets ($400M projected). Our season tickets literally sold at more than twice the projected rate and your organization couldn't even hit 25%. The Raiders were also 5th in the NFL in merchandise sales the Chargers were 31st, ahead of only the Detroit Lions.

While their Los Angeles-based rivals failed to reach projected PSL revenue targets, the Raiders have been raking in cash. The Rams and Chargers each projected to make around $400 million from PSL sales, but have reportedly fallen far short of those targets. The Chargers in particular have been a disaster, falling $300 million short of that $400 million target. We'll likely never see the raw numbers but you know if they were good, both franchises would be crowing about it.

In the article you linked, it pointed to Chargers PSL sales from 2019 😭😭.  Also, these are all projections. It has Chargers projected at 400 million and the article it linked implying they are falling short is from 2019.

Chargers don't own their own stadium, their revenue will be much lower. Basic stuff here.

The league literally had an emergency meeting to discuss what to do about the Chargers being unable to generate any revenue in Los Angeles. 

This is from April, I don't think family members would be suing the owner to try and force a sale of a team located in the biggest media market in the world if the team was doing well financially. Maybe those Herbert jersey sales will save them.
