Because they ran an initiative they knew would fail at the direction of Dean Spanos in the city that required more than 50% yes and rejected all viable stadium sites elsewhere as “not viable” This was Fabiani’s role that Spanos hired him to achieve. The Chargers never wanted to stay and never negotiated in good faith. Dean thought he would Move to LA, capture that market and keep San Diego. He was wrong on both counts. Chargers are less popular in LA than Rams, Raiders, 49ers and Cowboys all while alienating the majority of San Diego NFL fans. It was one of the worst business decisions in NFL History and he paid $650M to the NFL to make it

Dean Spanos seeing the Padres sell for almost $4 Billion must yet be another reminder of what a moron he was to move the Chargers to L.A. San Diego was a football first town. If he'd stayed, worked to get a downtown stadium, Bolts would be worth way more than they are now.

Breaking news: Padres play-by-play announcer Don Orsillo is headed to the IL. The team says his vocal cords are strained from his generational run to start the 2026 season and they will be shutting him down to deal with the inflammation. No timetable on when he can return

Padres haters be like “they’re acting like every game is the WS” Like bro, I don’t think you’re celebrating hard enough. If your team walks it off, you just do a single fist pump or what? Be excited, it’s baseball.

@padres_network 💯

Serious questions: Ramon Laureano Extension $2M signing bonus paid in the offseason 2027: $8m 2028: $10m 2029: $12m 2030: $12m team option , w/$1m buy out 3 year deal with $31m guaranteed, not including the signing bonus Yay or nay? #Padres #MLB

@padrespod Estrada!

So at this point, it seems the Padres have 3 options: 1. Option Bradgley Rodriguez (please don’t) 2. DFA Marinaccio 3. Option Jeremiah Estrada Which one?

@JMAC_Baseball He’ll rake with his next team though.

Campy 0 for 21 last yr. 0 for 3 with 3 Ks this yr. He isnt a MLB bat, period. Dude is DFA material. 14 Ks in those 24 ABs. Time to move on

@HOUSEPORN___ Need some sort of filtration.

that's exactly the kind of thing I'll buy with my adult money 😭

@wstgoat7 Any list with Subway ahead of Jersey Mikes is automatically thrown in the trash.

Fast food tier list

The comments 🤣

@chefsevenn Cold pizza

Is it acceptable to eat pizza for breakfast?

@TalkingFriars @sdutKevinAcee @grok give me ALL the details on this article.

Walker Buehler has made the team and Ty France can opt out of his contract today if he has not been assured he will be on the active roster at the start of the season (via @sdutKevinAcee) sandiegouniontribune.com/2026/03/20/pad…

@daveed_1931 Snapping that slider so hard will do it.

That Musgrove contract is looking crazier every year man

@HustleBitch_ That unit sold for 35-40% off MSRP when new.

🚨 THE RV MARKET IS CRASHING — $239,660 WINNEBAGO NOW SELLING FOR $120,000 — A 50% WIPEOUT An RV dealer walking his lot just showed what’s happening across the RV market right now. He tours a 2024 Winnebago Vista Canyonlands National Park Foundation Edition 29NP with only 8,113 miles on it. Then he shows the original window sticker. MSRP from Winnebago: $239,660 Current price? $120,000. That’s 50% of the value gone in about a year and a half. Outdoor TV. 270° wraparound awning. Full wall slide. Generator. Ducted AC. During the pandemic boom, RV dealers couldn’t keep units on the lot. Now inventory is stacking up, financing is expensive, and prices are getting slashed. When nearly-new RVs that sold for $240K in 2024 are suddenly sitting at 50% off, it’s usually a sign something in the market broke. Luxury toys are often the first things to collapse when discretionary money dries up. Would you buy this RV, or does a 50% discount tell you the RV bubble is popping?

Yesterday Mark Cuban reposted my work, DM'd me, and told me to keep telling my story. So here it is. I'm a Master Electrician. IBEW Local 369. 15 years pulling wire in Kentucky. Zero coding background. I didn't go to Stanford. I went to trade school. Every week I'd show up to a home where someone just bought a Tesla or a Rivian. And every time, someone had already told them they needed a $3,000-$5,000 panel upgrade to install a charger. 70% of the time? They didn't need it. The math is in the NEC — Section 220.82. Load calculations. But nobody was doing them for homeowners. Electricians upsell. Dealers don't know. And the homeowner just pays. I got angry enough to build something about it. I found @claudeai. No coding experience. I just started talking to it like I'd explain a job to an apprentice. "Here's how load calcs work. Here's the NEC code. Now help me build a tool that does this." 6 months later — @ChargeRight is live. Real software. Stripe payments. PDF reports. NEC 220.82 calculations automated. $12.99 instead of a $500 truck roll. I'm still pulling wire. I still take service calls. I wake up at 5:05 AM for work. But something shifted. Yesterday @vivilinsv published my story as Claude Builder Spotlight #1. Mark Cuban saw it. The Claude community showed up. And for the first time, I felt like this thing I built in my kitchen might actually matter. I'm not a tech founder. I'm a dad who wants to coach little league and be home for dinner. I just happened to build something that helps people. If you're in the trades and thinking about using AI — do it. The barrier isn't technical skill. It's believing you're allowed to try. EVchargeright.com

bit.ly/TWIHI473WillSw… U-Haul just released its annual "Growth Index" for all 50 states. For the 6th straight year, California is ranked No. 1 in the nation for people moving out versus moving in. To celebrate this latest milestone, I invited @WillSwaim to offer a few reasons as to why 2 million people have left California, and why so many more are poised to follow. If you still live here, as I do, I think you’ll be familiar with many of these reasons, all of which can be easily confirmed by your favorite AI assistant. If you don’t live here, and find yourself thinking, “well, this is what the people voted for,” I won’t disagree with that analysis. Government is like television in that way – we tend to get what we deserve. But Will Swaim is not here to discourage you from coming to California – he’s here to tell you that California is coming to you - at least, if our current Governor winds up in White House. And, as the Director of The California Policy Institute, Will wants America to understand the following: California ranks 48th in education. California has the highest housing costs in the U.S. California has the highest unemployment rate in the country. California has the highest energy prices, highest gas prices, and highest marginal tax rate of any state. California is #1 in homelessness. After spending $24 billion to fix the homeless problem, the money is unaccounted for and now the problem is even worse than it was. California spent $14 BILLION on a “high-speed” train that was supposed to connect LA & SF by 2020—but hasn’t laid a mile of track. Fraudsters stole $33 billion from California’s unemployment system, including $20 billion in a federal loan that Governor Newsom refuses to repay. Federal investigators just caught Governor Newsom in a conspiracy to hide gender-transition plans in public schools. California wants to confiscate 5% of billionaire wealth — and those billionaires are already leaving the state. California’s aggressive climate mandates often outpace practical implementation, creating blackouts. California lawmakers voted to make abortion available to anyone from anywhere in the world — at taxpayer expense. Despite the highest gasoline taxes in the U.S., California roads are among the worst in America. For decades, California has allowed environmentalists to block brush clearance and other wildfire-risk reduction efforts, turning small fires into deadly disasters. In spite of doubling government spending, Governor @GavinNewsom wants to raise taxes yet again and provide free Medicaid coverage to illegal immigrants. Governor Newsom has also pushed for reparations to people who never were enslaved from taxpayers who never owned them, in a state where slavery has always been illegal. Governor Newsom has signed 5,710 new laws in 7 years—a quarter of all new state laws passed in the U.S. in a state with the nation's most complicated regulatory system. Governor Newsom has forbidden state employees from traveling to states whose politics he despises (like Montana) yet he travels to these states repeatedly. Governor Newsom temporarily paused the statute of limitations for sexual assault cases which led to a bevy of lawsuits costing the state and its counties billions of dollars. Governor Newsom signed an anti-harassment bill that led to an explosion of child sex trafficking that has turned downtown LA into a thriving marketplace for predators. We don’t cover all of these points in the attached conversation, but we do cover a few – enough I hope, to encourage people who live outside of California to keep a close eye on what’s happened to the Golden State. Personally, I’m still amazed the voters forgave the Governor for violating his own mandates by dining at French Laundry, even as his constituents were being arrested for surfing and walking on the beach. I don’t believe that level of hypocrisy should ever be forgotten, and like many of you, I have little sympathy for an electorate that would vote to give such a person further control over their lives. On the other hand, like Will Swaim, I still live here and would prefer to keep it that way. But if you ask me why, I’m afraid I still can’t provide a persuasive reason...

@TooMuchMortons_ Heavy ball!

👀 Future potential buyers of the San Diego Padres: Joe Kudla, the founder and CEO of the Carlsbad-based apparel brand Vuori, is currently a lead bidder in the record-breaking sale process for the San Diego Padres as of February 26, 2026.   The New York Times  +1 Kudla’s net worth, largely tied to his ownership of Vuori, provides the financial foundation for his bid group, which includes Hall of Fame quarterback Drew Brees. Here is a video of both Joe Kudla and Drew Brees hanging out at Vuori Headquarters #Padres
