First you lose Rodney Harrison to MY Patriots, now Junior Seau is leaving. How does that taste?

It's funny, everyone here is treating this like someone died. LOL that's the salary cap for you. That what happens when a good athlete plays for a team that starts 6-1 then finishes 7-9. That's what happens when every year your org. acts like it's their year only to choke it all away. And finally, that's what you get when you have maybe 5 loyal fans and the rest come out when they're 5-2 then dissapear when the 9 game losing streak starts.

Do I sound like I'm rubbing it in?

hey know what'll be REEEEAAAAALLY funny?

When "your" patriots go a whopping 8-8 again next season, and the chargers make the playoffs - David Boston is a huge pickup, I expect the bolts to have one of the better o's in the league next season.

The pats? HAHAHAHHA

I'll take your David Patton, and raise you a (insert washed-up running back here).

Dude, the Chargers are gonna go strong in the first half,. like 6-2, then finish 6-10. At least we HAVE ring, what did the Sparks show when they went? NOTHING but an ass kicking. The Chargers have been hyping themselves for years and have amounted to nothing. We've never hyped ourselves, theyve always surprised people, and we came from no where and won the Super Bowl.
Besides, Junior is taking with him a leadership position, a guy the rest of the team can listen to and rally behind, like Joe MOntana or JOe Namath. Who will take over that role?

dude, i feel ya - i'm not a chargers fan by any stretch of the imagination, and being in Boston when the pats won the big'un was probably the coolest thing i've been around.

As far as "leadership role" - yeah, I hear what you're saying, but you just never know who will step in. If the team can use the cap space better, then it's still a good long-term move; today's NFL doesn't really allow you to carry "sentimental value" contracts.

As for the pats next season - until they can find an offensive game that doesn't resemble my high school's, any additions on D don't really impress me. Also, they've added a pass-rushing LB and a SS - are those really the best moves for a team that sucked against the run last year?

True...it would have been good if they could have cashed in on one of those middle linebackers available earlier...but they also had absolutely no outside pass rush, so Colvin's not a bad pickup.

Still though, they are going to get run all over again if they don't find someone to plug in there.

Hey Stan...met a Patriot today. Jarvis Green. His older sister is my boss and he was in town visiting her. Don't think he's done anything spectacular but I only think he's been on the team for a year.

DeltaSigStan · #7 03-18-2003, 12:49 AM

Hehehehe that's good shit girl, hopefully we'll shock the world again, at least we don't start 6-1 and finish 7-9 LIKE SOME TEAM I KNOW. The Sparks always seem to get caaked in the pooper in the 2nd half of the season

DeltaSigStan · #8 09-28-2003, 07:51 PM

BUMP

HAHAHAHAHA Couldn't get it done with a two TD lead with 6 minutes remaining.

Folks, are we looking at a possible UNDEFEATED season for the Bolts? History guys, history! Don't mess it up like you did that one year when you could have gone 0-16 but just HAD to beat KC.

Dude, what's your beef eh??? Why can't you just give props to your team without having to majorly dog mine? I support the Chargers regardless of the season they're having. Even though I can't stand the Raiders, I have enough class not to totally go off on some kind of trip. I've been listening to you rip the bolts for over a year now and I just don't get it. I can take good-natured ribbing, but you're just being downright awful and mean. Are you sore because your hometown team isn't a perennial winner? Are you angry because you've had to go out and put effort into finding whichever team's a winner currently? I've got news for you, life is full of change. The Cowboys and the Bears (Da Bears!!

) were good once and look what happened to them....

So what if Seau left? Yeah, we'll miss the guy...why is that so wrong?

At any rate, like happens to most teams at one point or another, one season the Chargers will come back full strength, take AFC and go to the big dance again...oooh and maybe even win. And when that happens, I hope everyone on GC remembers who was standing firm with the team in the face of your endless, mean-spirited taunts.

I'm not trying to pick a fight with you but, come on man, from one San Diegan to another, what's the deal with your hatred?

I'm also a San Diegan who supports the locals win or lose. In fact, I'm watching the end of the Padres at the Q.

hahaha...yeah, I know! Funny enough, I was just wondering if you were going to see this thread or not.

My dad, sister and our friend were at the Q for the Pads last night - they just *had* to get in their last opportunities to go to a game before the big switch. My sister and her friend are big fans of the team, though, I think my sister is pretty much a huge fan of Klesko ehehehehehehe.

It's surreal. I think I've been to one game in my life at the Q. Maybe I will go to Petco once the hype dies down.

DeltaSigStan · #13 09-28-2003, 09:14 PM

What are you talking about man? I'm pulling for them. They have another shot at a perfect season, and I hope they see it out through till the end.

I'm another local supporting her team...win or lose. We may not win every game, or go to the Super Bowl/World Series every year, but our team goes out there and plays their hearts out every game.

Loved seeing both the last night game AND last home game at Qualcomm Stadium....bring on Petco Park! (And I cried when Mike Darr's son was carried onto the field by Nevin and Matthews, Jr as one of the players who've played at the Q during it's history).

Now, to root on the Chargers.....and as much as I love Seau, Miami's not doing so hot this year, either.
