COSTA MESA, Calif. -- A year to this day, Chargers chairman Dean Spanos released a statement announcing the team's relocation to Los Angeles after 56 years in San Diego that included these words: "L.A. is a remarkable place, and while we played our first season there in 1960 and have had fans there ever since, our entire organization knows that we have a tremendous amount of work to do."
Those words remain true for the Spanos family in 2018.
The official announcement sparked a wide range of emotions from the team's fan base, with some holding signs and crying in front of Chargers Park while others showed their anger by burning Chargers' gear in the parking lot.
