Interesting... Robert hates NASCAR and INDY. Bored by drag racing. But he'll watch F1 with me. Is it the excitement of in car shots from Monaco? Or is it the Umbrella Babes???

Frightening though is that his favorite form of motorsport is Drifting. And he's upset that its tough to drift his 1.8hp kid kart. Though he tries hard....

:shock:

If that don't keep the front end down, nothing will! But I sure hope it's secured well...if that thing comes loose, it's basically a guillotine.

Not sure if that's good or bad

Good: A new stadium would likely have covered parking garages and too many planters if open parking.
Bad: No new stadium means the San Diego Chargers are one step closer to becoming the Los Angeles Chargers. As I understand it, they won't use Jack Murphy (Quallcom) much longer no matter what.

Plus, given the retail and residential space that was included, it's not clear that the stadium parking lots wouldn't have been shared in some fashion.

City was going to tear down the Murph and turn it over to retail/office space development. If a new stadium is built there, there will be less development, but a large parking structure to handle game day parking.
