Last Night's Loss Shakes Chargerland

I knew last night's epic choke and loss against the Broncos was huge, but I didn't think it would rattle many of the "all is fine" Charger fans.  Heck the Chargers are still tied for the lead in the AFC West, they have a bye and when the left tackle that has played almost 2 games is back, it will be full steam ahead to the Super Bowl.

But not after this loss.  After this loss there is more than one "homer" that has finally taken the step off the bandwagon and joined the "dark side" with many of us other Chargers...where I have essentially been for the past 3 seasons.  The other "homers" have simply disappeared.  They can no longer stick up for Norv Turner or AJ Smith and be taken seriously.  Last season was suppose to free the Chargers of those miserable louses and instead we just get another season of the same courtesy the owner, Dean Spanos...thanks again.  Norv Turner should have been fired last season and this is what the Chargers get for not doing so...a humiliating, prime time, Monday Night Football debacle.  As I was driving to work and listening to the sports talk radio - note, not from San Diego - and during the "casual conversation" regarding the game one person said "You almost come to expect San Diego to self implode because they do it so often." and that is why the Chargers get no respect...nor do they deserve any.

I thought the Chargers were at least a pretty good lousy team, now I think they are just a lousy team trending to becoming a bad team.  Unfortunately, I wish I could say this is coming as a surprise to me but this blog is evidence I am fully aware of how awful this team is now and has been.
