I live in Santa Cruz County which borders Santa Clara County. Santa Clara County is the home of the 49ers. The stadium is probably about 45 minutes from my home.
Santa Cruz and Monterey Counties are not in “Silicon Valley” or even the Bay Area. Therefore we have our own NBC, ABC, and CBS affiliates. I live over 340 miles from Los Angeles. It is a 5 and a half hour drive. In other words it is another world. We are roughly half between LA and Oregon. This is not a Los Angeles sports market … in fact LA teams are disliked by most Northern Californians.
Get this: Our local ABC and NBC affiliates both advertise their weekly live coverage of Chargers football. They brag about it on the sports news. They do not carry 49er football. Highlights of Justin Herbert are all over their promotional ads.
They have been doing this ever since Herbert arrived. I just can not believe it.
This is 49er country and still kind of Raider country for a certain type of “bad boy” fan. LOL
I have no problem with the Chargers. I have always liked them. So what the heck.
Go Chargers!
