The San Diego Chargers should change their name to the San Diego Crybabies
I've never seen so much sour grapage out of one team after losing. LT complained again yesterday about the Pats celebrating. How can you blame them? They had just come back from behind to win the game.

You lost, get over it.

8. The losing team ALWAYS wants to talk about ANYTHING other than the game....
Edited on Thu Jan-18-07 02:31 PM by Jack from Charlotte
Noticed that years ago in SEC football. The Gators beat Tennessee, some Vol-fer-brains say, "they have no class." or they smell like corn dogs or whatever........ANYTHING BUT THE GAME..... and usually it's an effective ploy. Note the media boys stop delving into why Diego lost and start discussing the opponents class-ness.

3. That was the Chargers' game to lose...and they did.
Get your players to use their melons, and you'll do better next year.

4. Schottenheimer looks and speaks just like Dick Cheney.
I couldn't wait for him to leave Washington.

That, and the fact that he dissed Darryl Green.

5. Considering a Charger tried to head butt one of the Pats WELL after a play was over...
... (resulting in a 15yd unsportsmanlike conduct penalty and possibly the game), I think everything LT said about class and the Pats coach actually applies more appropriately to the Chargers and their coach. Not saying Schottenheimer is responsible for a player head-butting, but it is a whole lot more connected w/ coaching, and team conduct that is or should be allowed, than a dance at the end of a BIG win.

6. chargers need some class too
Umm this from the team whose player Shawne Merriman, aka Mr. Steroid (sadly an alumni of Maryland as I am) does his stupid "lights out" dance whenever he even hits someone? Please.
Glad Marty was fired from Skins. They have their issues but at least when they make the playoffs they win a game or two...

7. Plus apparently this celebrating involved Pats players mimicking
Shawne Merriman's stupid steroid-freak masturbation dance or whatever the hell he calls it. I don't blame Tomlinson for being pissed off under the circumstances but there does seem to be some obliviousness as to how obnoxious Merriman's antics are.
