    OK, my name is Fender57. I've been posting on Charger forums since 94 when Vernon Harmon started a listserv thingy and we used to discuss Bolts via e-mail. Was known as "6025" on that board, migrated over to the Boltbug board til they started charging money to post there, then went over to NFLForums and would like to hang out here too if you'll have me.

    Been a Chargers fan as long as I can remember, started following them during the last gasp of Sid Gillman before Charlie Waller (then Gillman for one year), then the Svare years. Saw Johnny U limp off the field for the last time in 1974 against Atlanta and a rookie named Dan Fouts started his stellar career wearing the white helmet and powder blue uniforms. Saw Prothro stumble his way through a season but we also had a great draft under him (Louie, Big Hands, Fred Dean, Woodrow Lowe, Mike Williams, Mike Fuller) and then of course the Holy Roller leading to Air Coryell, JJ, Kellen, Joiner, Muncie, and the rest.

    Great to be here.

    I heart Dan Fouts. I met him once when I lived in NoCal. Nice guy.

    You've been lucky to be the witness to some amazing times.:tup:

    Hi everybody,

    easy to see: my name is Michael! :) Guess where I am from!

    My wife Sonja and I trave to California from time to time, and when we are in the US it's a must for us to see the Chargers.

    Last year, at the Donkeys game, we had our 1st Tailgate with you guys, and this was one of the best things that happend to us on our trip! It was really great.

    The schedule is not very good for us, becaus in planning another trip we have to keep some things in mind like our work and stuff, but we hope to get to SD this fall.

    Take care everybody, hope to see you all soon!

    Hello all. Been following the podcast for a few years now and I finally decided to visit the forums. Living outside of San Diego I guess I finally needed some place to talk to fans of my team.

    Thanks for having me, and I'll try not to make too big of an *** of myself. :lol:

    Hello Sports Fans!

    I usually reside on a couple of other sites, have met several BT members at our joint tailgate parties, I am with the Bolt Bunker crew, and GTP, as well as a friend of Bolt Pride. Looking forward to meeting you guys again, I have lurked on this site, you do have some really funny threads! I will throw in some commentary or post a few responses if you don't mind. If you don't remember me, I'm the one with the paint on! Ray, thanks for your hospitality as usual.

    Pointy :icon_twisted:

    P.S. I really like this little icon, can I have it as an avatar?

    Usally: yes. Maybe the average Beer over here ist stronger than yours, but this stuff I had at the last BBQ really kicked my butt.

    Or maybe, it was because of the Jetlag....the only excuse I can think of! :icon_rofl:
