San Diego Chargers Football Co.
 PROFILE
The Chargers could use a jolt after finishing the 1999 season at 8-8. The San Diego Chargers Football Co. started in 1959 as the Los Angeles Chargers, then moved to San Diego in 1961. The team almost returned to LA in 1997 when the remodeling of its stadium was delayed, but owner Alex Spanos now has agreed to stay in San Diego. QUALCOMM paid $18 million to have Jack Murphy Stadium renamed Qualcomm Stadium; the newly expanded venue will be the site of the 2003 Super Bowl. The Chargers last went to the big game in 1994. Spanos, who got his start selling sandwiches to migrant workers, bought the National Football League team in 1984. He also owns apartment-building concern A.G. Spanos Companies.
