Kiszla: Messy football divorces of Melvin Gordon and Chris Harris Jr. bring back the spite Broncos-Chargers rivalry so desperately needs

Ugly divorces make for great football.

So consider this a thank-you note to cornerback Chris Harris Jr. for breaking up with the Broncos after a year-long tiff about money.

A fist bump to running back Melvin Gordon for ruining his relationship with the Chargers, who were delighted to finally shake him like a bad habit.

Don’t know about you. But I can’t wait to see how a new love-to-hate-’em attitude heats up a tired, old AFC West rivalry.

Throughout Broncos Country, the animosity toward the Chargers has long paled in comparison to the madness of Raiders Week or the green-with-envy relationship between Denver and Kansas City.
