    Money may not know this, but Lorenzo definitely knows, the best section at the Q was F15, the only section that stood the entire game, right above the opponents tunnel. As a season ticket holder of that section in those golden years. All of Lo’s stories are the best content online. Almost bringing to tears thinking of when we had a team to root for that really represented our city.

      Anyone that followed that team during the mid to late 2000's considered that to be the best of times. Close to a 7 year run of consistently making the playoffs and winning the division.

      My dad and l, along with our friends, had season tickets in section F15 in the 2000s. It was an incredible experience. When his cancer became harder for him to manage we all moved a section up. Some of the best memories in my life. Tailgating with great people under E9 in the parking lot made both my dad and I really happy.

      @@adrian-vu6gt I don't remember the poster, but it was around that same time. I do remember the Chargers weren't allowed to have their games broadcast on TV unless they sold enough tickets each week. Rather than have away teams buy the tickets up (because who wouldn't want to tailgate and watch a game in beautiful SD weather?) the team donated tickets to first responders that went to ground zero in the years following 9/11. Raider games were the best games; Marty hated the Raiders and that message was delivered and emphasized every time. And, in my opinion, that week had the most tickets donated to first responders each year. It was wild.

    Any true Chargers fan knows that LT's success was built on the back of Lorenzo Neal. Fans want Lorenzo to know that we saw his work and know his contribution. To paraphrase Kanye, "You made that running back famous."

Me and my buddy did a quick driveby of her house to see if she was home and her dad threw up his hands like "slow down!", but we thought he was throwing up "I love you"s for a long time until we heard about his fingers. Havent thought of that in years...Money makes me laugh.

    I question whether the DD type returner is going to be good for the new kickoff dynamics. That is why I wanted the Bolts to draft Isaac Guerendo, 6'0" 231# and ran a 4.33 (Niners). I. think that power back type may very well do better than the guys who had space to set up his speed.

      @@ruckdafaiders It looks like they took an edge rusher and moved him to the interior. From the descriptions of him he's better at rushing the passer, not as awesome stopping the run. That seems to fit the description of an edge. Again, I'm not very educated on the sport, just wondering. Why not move Mack to the interior? He'd get to the passer faster through the middle right? He's stout enough against the run.

Staley was rigid, stubborn and unable to change whereas this staff is different with respect, integrity, knowledge, effort, fairness and honesty! Go Bolts!
