Hardwick not interested in L.A. gig, feels fans' pain

The Chargers are moving to Los Angeles without radio broadcaster and former longtime center Nick Hardwick, who said Wednesday he lost interest in the job once the Spanos family pulled the team from San Diego last week.

“I have no interest in the Los Angeles Chargers,” Hardwick said. “It’s not a job that I have and am turning down. It’s just a job that I’m not interested in.”

Hardwick last year joined the Chargers’ radio broadcast team on a one-year contract as the partner to play-by-play man Josh Lewin.

The former center, a Chargers draftee in 2004 and starter on six of San Diego’s playoff teams, said he has had no discussions with the team about returning, but considers it a moot point due to the team’s relocation after 56 years in San Diego.
