Norv Turner? Seriously.

As previously mentioned, I bleed pigskin. After the SuperBowl, I pine for September. Sure, the pre-season gets me my fix, but it's just not the same. So last night, the Chargers vs. Rams game is on. No question, we're watching it (with a brief interlude for me to buy a new Mac). Now I'm a serious Bolts fan. From back in the early 80s when we lived in San Diego. Always have been, always will be. But I am currently questioning the sanity of the front office. They fired Marty Schottenheimer with a 10-2 record last year and brought in Norv Turner. Okay, first of all, his name is Norv. Hello? So, you go from Marty Ball (which worked, by the way) to a guy with a marginal record. The Chargers lost in the 2nd round of the playoffs last year after a first round bye week. So, apparantly a fabulous season and getting the team into the playoffs isn't enough. They want to WIN the SuperBowl. And they chose Norv as they guy to do it. Hmmmm....questionable. Thank goodness the team has skads of talent!
