Cautionary tale: Jets no pushovers, but Chargers should win

Full Story Here: "I tire of running alongside the bandwagon, which is SRO now, jammed with Boltaholics, old and fledgling, and running as if Chuck Yeager had the reins. But every so often it stops to let some believers squeeze aboard, and it is then I can put my pulse on the fickle finger of the San Diego sports fan.

Here's what I get: They see Jets lag. The consensus is the Chargers are going to punch New York in its big Adam's apple in tomorrow night's prime-time AFC playoff game, that this could be Tyson-Spinks, over before the final tailgater staggers into Qualcomm.

Even the oddsmakers, enamored with the Bolts because they cover like darkness, make the Chargers a touchdown favorite. And to think five months ago, morons to Mensa members had the San Diegans cruising or putting up preserves with their wives by Jan. 8."
