Not sure if you're aware, but San Diego is my team (MLB and NFL).
LOOK: The Loss of LT has been a long time coming. I called for his [long overdue] trade in last year's off season...unfortunately, the Chargers didn't take my call. Now he's been given his papers and is out walking the streets - SAD.
While I'll always wonder what could have been had Tomlinson not sat on the sidelines on 20 Jan, 2008 and watched his team fall apart in the AFC title game against the Patriots, I wont criticise. The Chargers literally built a team around Tomlinson, and rightfully so. In just 9 years of play, LT has put together quite a resume: NFL's all time single season record holder for touchdowns (31), rushing touchdowns (28), most points scored (186), most consecutive games with a rushing touchdown (18), and most consecutive multi-touchdown games (8). The list goes on for at least another mile.
But, more importantly than the records...LT made the Chargers fun to watch again, and brought life back to their fan-base. Thanks LT, you will be missed!
