weirdguy and skydivemom, i agree the link is basically worthless. i was commenting on the post and offering opinion related to it. i thought this site was designed to promote discussion and debate and was just attempting to join in. perhaps you are more interested in the quality of the link as opposed to the opinions of other posters, and that is fine. i just enjoy offering and receiving feedback and engaging in sports related debate, even if it does sometimes regress to "ha ha, my team beat your team"

hey skydivemom, making a comment about the media hyperbole surrounding the chargers is not trash talking. i think they are a talented team and i certainly respect them more than any other afc west team {excepting my own of course}sports fans have passions for their teams and are thus inevitably biased, that does not however invalidate any criticism they may have in regard to a rival team. this is what i would like you to understand.

i am a bronco's fan so i understand completely why rscannix made that post. since the bolts beat the colts every media person has talked like they were the best team in the league despite all their losses. i grew tired of being told that a team that my team beat and had a better record than was a clearly superior outfit. as parcell's says "you are what you are" and san diego is an underachieving non-playoff team and as long as marty's at the helm they will never win a championship.

Packers and Rams reportedly fire their debris....
tice lost control of the team at times and probably had to go. martz forgot how to call running plays. sherman hasn't been great, but i just hope this move doesn't mean the end of brett favre.
