The Los Angeles Chargers don’t kick off the 2017 season in their new home for eight-plus months, but there are already some winners and losers emerging from the team’s relocation north. There’s plenty of blame to go around in San Diego, but he failed to make it work. Winner: Chargers fans in Los Angeles — They might be small in number, but they’ll surely grow. Winner: The Raiders — With San Diego vacant, the Raiders have a good option on the table if Las Vegas falls through. Loser: The NFL — Commissioner Roger Goodell didn’t want the Chargers to leave San Diego, and nor did several owners.
