Don't know where the Chargers team buses leave from, but I know that the Raiders in the past have liked to stay at the Hilton next to Fiesta mall.


That's the closest hotel they could find?! That's wild! .. i'm actually stunned. I always assumed teams would be posted up right next to the stadium if they could.

It always is! The last 2 Monday night games I have gone to. It took almost 2 hours from the 60 to the stadium! That was ridiculous. Today, I hope we get there alot earlier and avoid most of the traffic.

It's more the once in forever rains of today that worry me. Plus my lot is now closed. ARGH!

It's going to look empty. A ton-ton-ton of fans come out from the east side. Even with the late kickoff, there's going to be enough uncertainty, I think, that a lot of even motivated Cardinals fans are going to stay home rather than risk being stranded in Glendale.

It's not going to look good tonight. Thankfully, the game will be on late enough that it may not be too embarrassing to a large audience.
It's hot out now. Everything's dry. The following storms should not hold a candle to the one this morning

I dunno. I mean, the schedule doesn't come out until April, and with 53 players plus coaching staff plus ownership, you're having to secure 30-60 rooms plus meeting spaces at a level that complies with (I assume) the CBA. It's not like you can post them all at the Comfort Inn.

I'm sure it's not every team. I just remember driving to the game early to tailgate and competing with the Raiders' motorcade in the HOV lane back in the day.

Zero traffic on I 10. Made it to the game in record time. Lots of Chargers fans.
