Why Chargers fan, 100, is ready to let them go

SAN DIEGO -- The outrage begins in a corner seventh-floor apartment overlooking Balboa Park. A man who takes two power naps a day speaks for nearly every lifelong Chargers fan when he says he will not root for the team if it moves 120 miles north to Los Angeles. He is the real face of the franchise now, a man who has lived but not died with Chargers since they arrived in 1961, a man who needs 20 hands to count all of his birthdays.

Do the math. Blake Talbot is 100 years old, and the San Diego Chargers are breaking his heart.
