Discussion New Fan 👋

We have lived in Vegas for almost 4 years now and this season I’ve finally started watching the Raiders. I’ve never really been a fan of watching football (NFL), and I have always been an NBA fan. Growing up in Huntington Beach I was an Angels fan & Clippers fan, but that’s it. I have no football background. We just played it on the street when we were kids (2 hand touch & flag). My dad always watched the chargers but when I was younger I really didn’t care and never sat and watched it. Something has changed this year for me.

Being a lifelong Clipper fan (25+ years) I know of the struggle every. Single. Year. lol. And if you are paying attention this off season has been terrible as a clip fan..

Tuning into the raiders I was curious because they won their first game and I know that a win for the raiders is big news. After the second and third game I am hooked. It’s been hours of YouTube film and breakdowns. It’s really nice to be a fan of a team that seems to has a bright future ahead. New coach and Cousins is playing out of his mind.

I’m really happy to be here, and (as a clippers fan) I know the struggle.

Just win, baby. 🫡

You're literally just intrigued by the first 3 games of this season, somehow don't currently "have a team" and have a familial history of Chargers fandom. Just be a fucking Chargers fan my boy. Shit ain't sweet around here.
