Che sara sara is Italian and it dates about 25 years earlier (1525 vs 1559) than the Spanish version Both languages are latin based. Per Wiki: The saying is always in an English-speaking context, and has no history in Spain, Italy, or France, and in fact is ungrammatical in all three Romance languages. Per one of the references: All evidence indicates that the saying originated in England. It first appears—with the unique, French-like spelling of “quy serra serra”—in an English manuscript of the 15th century, with a somewhat enigmatic function (Sec. 5.1). In the 16th century it was adopted as the heraldic motto of an aristocratic English family (Sec. 5.3), with the Italian spelling that was to be its predominant form for 400 years. Alongside that emblematic use, it begins to take on an expressive function in the speech and thoughts of fictional characters, as a manifestation of an individual’s fatalistic attitude toward a specific situation—occasionally in the 17th century, and later with increasing frequency, especially in the 19th and 20th centuries. In some of its instances, the saying appears with a translation or paraphrase; but in others—even some of the earliest ones—it appears on its own, suggesting that the reader may have been expected to understand it without semantic assistance. As I posted earlier, it is considered a slang term in french, and therefore of minimal value. I say let the English own it..... It has weird u in it that makes zero sense, so it's obviously yours.

Expandable to 50k seats. That would be just fine for an NFL venue. That's surely more substantive than simple pandering to a naive audience. Surely.

Didn't you say something earlier about reading comprehension? Or was that grammar?

As long as it has nothing to do with the Convention Center or bed taxes no one will notice

I just reopened this thread and have no clue where it has gone. It, like most Charger games and discussions of ice hockey, has taken on a life of its own. My talents are so vast..................Eh ?

Methinks that they wouldn't have moved to play in a 25,000 seat stadium permanently (Kroenke's $3+ billion stadium for $1 / year rent may have played a tiny part in the decision to pack up), but maybe they are brain-damaged enough to make the move back to a retro-fitted stadium expansion up to 50,000 souls that harkens back to the great Murph expansion. Of course, this expansion won't allow for Super Bowls in the future which I was informed by many was the major selling point for the NFL ponying up to have a team with a new stadium in SD back on the CMB.
