Chargers plan to apply to NFL for L.A. move

SAN DIEGO (CNS) - It was reported this weekend that the San Diego Chargers will apply to the NFL to bolt to Los Angeles.

Chargers executive Mark Fabiani went on a San Diego-area sports radio station to say the Chargers would apply to move to the much-larger TV market because two other teams are poised to do so.

"At this point, yes, because there's no sign that the other team or teams are not going to file," Fabiani told XEPRS "the Mighty 10-90" radio.

He said the Chargers are in a partnership with the Oakland Raiders to build a new stadium together in the South Bay, between Long Beach and LAX.
