That rings a bell for me too, but I'm thinking Spanos is gonna have to wait a bit before he gets his Los Angeles revenue-bump. Hard to imagine a potential buyer looking at Sunday's game in Carson and thinking that the Chargers are now more valuable than they were in 2016.

Someone paid a $1B for the Bills. I've got that imagine on location alone the Chargers are worth at least that. But it's clear that Spanos is simply a barnacle just cashing those revenue sharing checks

I'm not gonna argue that he can't get a big number for selling the Chargers but I don't think that big number has gotten any bigger just because he moved to LA Carson. You're right though: Owning an NFL team is the next best thing to a license to print money.
