As a long-time Chargers fan, I can tell you that we fans get really sick and tired of hearing everybody talk about how easily other teams can pass at will against the Charger’s D. In the past couple of seasons some really great Draft picks have led to the silencing of such.

Now with the addition of one Antoine Cason, I think our depth at Corner has finally gotten pretty damn solid. Along with Jammer and Crime Time (Antonio Cromartie) I’m betting that 08 will be the Year of the Pick Off.

I definitely cannot forget to throw a bone to Eric Weddle; the dude is EVERYWHERE. I’m glad he got the starting nod for the ‘08 Season.

I’m a die hard Chargers fan who grew up rooting for the Bolts mostly from the comfort of my home. Having been a season ticket holder for four years, however, I can tell you that there is nothing like being at the game; it’s great.

But, I just received my second payment notice for my tickets, and I was sooooo freeeeeeakn’ happy to learn that the Charger’s raised the season ticket prices… AGAIN! Yeah, I know it’s a business, but the cost to sit in Plaza is borderline ridiculous. Seriously, when you add up the cost per seat (x2) + the $20 parking fee, suddenly Football Sunday becomes VERY EXPENSIVE.

I want to continue to be a season ticket holder because I love the Bolts, but the cost is such that I’ve begun to wonder if I can feel just as good sitting in front of my 60″ Sony watching the game in Vivid HD, while drinking and eating to my heart’s content. Oh yeah, and all of this without having to get up extra early to avoid traffic and fight traffic on the way home.

It definitely makes it all worth thinking about, eh?

I think the Chargers have proven how mentally and physically tough they are this year. Tomorrow at 12 PT we’ll see if they can hand the Patriots their first loss of the year.

I think the Chargers stack-up well against the Patriots, and it should be a tough, physical game. GO BOLTS!
