SAN DIEGO -- In what the team hopes will provide a much-needed boost to its campaign, San Diego mayor Kevin Faulconer has officially endorsed the Chargers $1. Drew Robinson Jersey .8 billion plan to build a new stadium and convention center expansion in downtown San Diego.The news was first reported Monday by The San Diego Union-Tribune.This is about working toward common goals that will get solutions for the public good, Faulconer told The Union-Tribune.Stadium plans were unveiled in April, but Faulconer said it took so long for him to make a decision because of his offices ongoing negotiations with the Chargers, and he was unwilling to leave several questions unanswered.As part of his endorsement, Faulconer and the Chargers agreed to eight concessions to strengthen the teams ballot initiative, called Measure C.On behalf of the San Diego Chargers, I want to thank you for the hard work and deliberation you and your team have put into reviewing Measure C and for the safeguards you have requested, Chargers chairman Dean Spanos stated in a letter agreeing to Faulconers terms Saturday. We are honored to have your endorsement today.Major provisions in the new deal include the Chargers agreeing to cover any escalation in construction or land costs beyond current estimates, guaranteeing that the citys general fund will never be used for the project and promising that revenue for tourism marketing would stay at its current level.The Chargers also agreed to give the city all money from non-NFL events at the new stadium and committed to staying in San Diego until the initial debt on the project is fully paid off.This was not my plan, but I saw an opportunity to make it better, Faulconer told the newspaper. Its no secret that I had concerns and its also no secret that I thought it was important to get financial protections. These safeguards obviously strengthen this measure and strengthen things moving forward in the future. Faulconers endorsement is significant because his relationship had cooled with the team after the Chargers announced their intention to move to Los Angeles last year, and not support the mayors plan to build a new stadium at Mission Valley, the current site of Qualcomm Stadium.Faulconer also has been a supporter of the local hoteliers plans for the contagious expansion of the convention center. The local hoteliers and the convention center backers oppose the teams stadium project.The Chargers have built momentum over the past few months by gaining endorsements from key members of the local business community, including the San Diego regional chamber of commerce, and Adam Day, the former chairman of Faulconers stadium task force who recommended the Mission Valley plan.However, the Chargers also face strong opposition from a group called No Downtown Stadium.That group includes San Diego city council members David Alvarez, Scott Sherman and Chris Cate, along with Joe Terzi, president of the San Diego tourism authority.The No Downtown Stadium coalition is concerned about the stadium project creating a growing tax burden on San Diego citizens, along with the impact a project of this magnitude could have on downtowns footprint.The Chargers propose building a $1.8 billion stadium and convention center expansion in downtown San Diego that raises its transient occupancy tax, which is paid for by visitors staying at hotels, from 12.5 percent to 16.5 percent.The revenue collected by the city would go to pay the debt service on $1.15 billion in bonds issued to help pay for land acquisition and construction of an expanded convention center for the new stadium project, projected to cost $800 million, along with one-third of the cost for a new $1 billion stadium, projected at $350 million.The Chargers and the NFL would contribute $650 million. The NFL would be responsible for $300 million, including $200 million from the G4 stadium loan program and a $100 million gift negotiated as part of the Rams moving back to Los Angeles.The Chargers would contribute $350 million.The initiative also creates a marketing fund for the city to help promote tourism and conventions in San Diego.Upon agreement on the proposal, the Chargers would agree to not relocate for 30 years and play all of their home games at the new stadium. The team would be responsible for any cost overruns, along with annual maintenance involving the stadium portion of the project.City voters in San Diego will weigh in on the project during the Nov. 8 election. As it stands now, the project requires a two-thirds vote. Cole Hamels Jersey . -- Al Jefferson found a groove just in time for the Charlotte Bobcats. Matt Moore Jersey .

Its the second straight game Bell has scored in extra time for Kelowna, which beat the Brandon Wheat Kings 6-5 on Friday, and he now has four game-winning goals on the season.SAINT-QUENTIN-EN-YVELINES, France -- Anders Hansen of Denmark shot a 5-under 66 to lead by a stroke after the first round of the French Open on a golf course that punished some of the main contenders on Thursday. Hansen made seven birdies and two bogeys on the Albatross course of Le Golf National, which will host the Ryder Cup in 2018. "You do want to stay out of the rubbish, and theres plenty of it out there," Hansen said. "Every hole theres something. One bad shot and all of a sudden youre staring at double. Its just tough out there." Hansen finished fourth at the French Open in 2009 and his best result this year was a third place at the Malaysian Open in March. Frenchman Romain Wattel was in second place, one stroke clear of nine players who shared third place, including Martin Kaymer of Germany. The 22-year-old Wattel finished joint third at the Lyoness Open last month in Austria and wound up fourth in April at the Ballantines Championship in Seoul. Past winners Martin Kaymer of Germany (68) and Miguel Angel Jimenez of Spain (69) stayed in contention, along with 2010 U.S. Open champion Graeme McDowell of Northern Ireland (69) and Americann golfer Matt Kuchar (70). Rougned Odor Jersey. "If you hit off line out here, you lose your ball basically," McDowell said. "Its a very punishing golf course." Kuchar is second in the Fedex rankings behind Tiger Woods and was making his French Open debut. "It was an amazing reception on the first tee," Kuchar said. "It just made me feel very welcome. I was excited to get around and going." Ranked 1560th in the world, Thomas Pieters of Belgium had a share of third place until the last hole where he made a double bogey for a 70 to slip to 24th. The 21-year-old Pieters turned pro last month and was playing for the first time on the European Tour. Former top-ranked Luke Donald of England birdied his last two holes to limit the damage with an even-par 71. "This is a course that demands a lot of precision," Donald said. "If youre a little bit off, it can bite you. It bit me on 18." Ryder Cup star Ian Poulter (73) of England, Matteo Manassero (73) of Italy, defending champion Marcel Siem (78) of Germany and Danish prodigy Thorbjorn Olesen (78) will need a good second round on Friday to make the cut.
