    ...besides Charger forums, I mean? I think it's cool to see what other online communities people take part in - says a lot about their interests and hobbies, sometimes in surprising ways.

    I'll start. I guess listing Charger boards is OK too, just as an aside.

    Chargers/NFL:
    BoltTalk
    UT (very occasionally)
    Charger.com (pretty much lurk only these days)
    thenflforums Chargers section (lurk)

    [H]ardOCP forum - As a tech and an enthusiast, this is the forum I find myself most often turning to either just for fun/interest, to keep up on the bleeding edge, or to discuss issues.

    Dogster.com forum - I have three dogs, and this is a fun place to interact with other dog owners, talk about doggy problems, and show off your pooches.

    MMORPG.com - My gaming genre of choice. Use it to keep up on current events in the genre.

    What about you guys?

            I'm a moderator and assistant administrator for the Internet's largest nursing website, allnurses.com. If I'm not here, it's usually because I'm over there putting out fires and giving sage nursing advice!

            I also visit yardbarker, Fox News, Whistle Stoppers, Defending the Truth, nurse.com, and some of the San Diego-area newspaper sites so I can keep up with hometown news.

                  don't really use forums for anything outside of sports.

                  UT - The Chargers and Padres sections
                  Bolttalk
                  NFL-Fanatix - http://forums.nfl-fanatix.com/

                  those are really the only forums I try to check when I can. :icon_shrug:

                                                                          call me crazy but i predit 11-5..


                                                                          San Diego lost LT's lead blocker Lorenzo Neal and Shane Olivea along with Michael Turner. That run game will take a bigger hit then it did last season. I don't see Philip beating us with our DB's. And Norv is their HC? I think a sweep is verry possible but I wouldn't be shocked if they beat us in a close game. Depends how our front seven plays this season.


                                                                          Lorenzo Neal has blocked for LT since his rookie year. When you take away a good lead blocker and a good back-up RB your run game will suffer.


                                                                          If we're 3-0 going into that Chargers game, and are able to take out the Chargers, we'll be in the drivers seat for the AFC West IMHO, looking real good to muster 10-plus wins.


                                                                          How quick you forget that Adrian Peterson was injured part of the season last year and LT played every game and still barely beat it. And that was the second lowest rushing yards that there has been for the NFL rushing leader the past 30 years. LT is old and done for....


                                                                          We're much better this year. Norval has to get his team up for the Raider games. They might not take us seriously until we beat them once.
                                                                          Yeah, a sweep is not too likely unless JRuss and DMC really click.


                                                                          Rivers is gonna have fun throwing to Hall and Nnamdi, though, if we get ahead.
                                                                          I'm not sure the Bolts know how to play catchup against us yet.


                                                                          I Might be crazy but I can see us going 11-5!!!

                                                                          BS, all norv has proven he can only win when already given an established team with tonnes of talent ala barry Switzer. This year is a much bigger test for Norv, he didn't become a good coach after one good year and 10 bad ones, open your eyes.


                                                                          Soon the planets and the stars will be properly re-aligned. The Raiders will be back on top of the West, the Chargers will be back in the basement where they belong.


                                                                          Norv had some talent when he was here, better then 5-11 and 4-12, but yes, we were not good then, captain obvious. None of that changes the fact Norv, is not, and never will be a good coach.


                                                                          16-0 The rage that was the USC offense with Reggie Bush and Lendale White will be unleashed on a league in the form of "our" Bush and McFadden, that has never seen Kiffin's true genius before. Why is Reggie Bush not successful in the NFL? Not because of his skills but because he no longer has Lane Kiffin's system. Write it down.


                                                                          Allegedly Norv Turner fell asleep in the library once and was awoken by a blind man trying to read his face. Seriously though, I don't think SD will ever get another high profile coach as long as AJ Smith is calling the shots. I mean how the hell do you fire a guy who led you to a 14-2 record? Turner is who he is, like someone already alluded to, a good X's and O's guy. Most of the stars are aligned for him to make another run but frankly SD showed some chinks last season and I think the window of opportunity is closing for them.

                                                                                  Adrian Wilson IMO may be an upgrade to Schwiegart but he isnt that great. Giants fans didnt even like him that much.

                                                                                  I also am not worried one bit about Hall and Osomugua...Hall isnt that greta either and just has a big mouth. Actually i think it will be great for Phillip to get in his head and beat that chump deep for a TD.

                                                                                  Walker is a shell of himself already an Kwame Harris will get Russell severely disabled.
