For the last show before our traditional February break, Ray and Loren go over the year that was 2009, the highs, lows, and what the off-season holds for your Chargers. And we’ll try to be over that whole playoff loss thing (no guarantees though). Plus we discuss the disappointing news of LaDainian Tomlinson not coming back in 2010.

LaDainian Tomlinson
SAN DIEGO (AP)—LaDainian Tomlinson says he believes he has played his last game as a San Diego Charger.
The running back told The San Diego Union-Tribune on Thursday that he has thought for a while he would be let go by the Chargers.
His comments come after more than a month of saying he did not know what would happen.
The NFL’s most valuable player in 2006 has two years remaining on his contract. He is due a $2 million roster bonus March 5 and would be paid $5 million in total salary in 2010.

Norv Turner and Philip Rivers - Chargers.com Photo
The Chargers are gone and coach Norv Turner is coming back.
Just like a squad that felt confident about reaching the Super Bowl — or at least winning a home playoff game — is history.
Turner, who has lost two of his last three playoff games directing the Chargers, will be retained through the 2013 season.
But the buzz around San Diego remains the Chargers’ shocking car-wreck of a loss to the underdog New York Jets.

Norv Turner
SAN DIEGO (AP)—Like it or not, Chargers fans, coach Norv Turner will be sticking around for four more years.
The Chargers announced Monday night that the oft-maligned coach is getting a three-year contract extension through 2013.
The extension came just more than 24 hours after the Chargers were shocked 17-14 by the New York Jets in the divisional playoffs, renewing calls by some fans for Turner to be fired.

San Diego Chargers tight end Brandon Manumaleuna, center, and teammates sit on the bench during the fourth quarter against the New York Jets.
The San Diego Chargers still don’t have much of an explanation for their latest playoff pratfall, although the word “uncharacteristic” popped up plenty as players headed into a gloomy off-season.
The Chargers, believed by some to be Super Bowl favourites, took a face-plant in Sunday’s 17-14 loss to the New York Jets.
And to think, they don’t have Marty Schottenheimer to blame for this one.
“No question it was a missed opportunity,” said LaDainian Tomlinson, who might have played his last game with the Chargers. “I’ve said all along and I still believe it, this is the best team I’ve ever been on since I’ve been here with the Chargers. It’s disappointing.”

SAN DIEGO — Rex Ryan is on a roll.
The rookie coach who declared his team Super Bowl favorites after he figured out they were still in the playoffs, is just a game away from being hailed for his psychic powers.
His Jets are still playing.
Rookies Mark Sanchez and Shonn Greene led New York to a stunning 17-14 upset of San Diego in the divisional playoffs Sunday, each providing a touchdown in the fourth quarter that marked another Chargers postseason pratfall.
The jovial, rotund Ryan isn’t afraid to say what’s on his mind, and his players are taking his lead as they head into the AFC Championship Game against Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday.
