    It's Not Just Me, Right?

    Trent Green HATES the Chargers. Not sure if it is because he got cut early in his career or because Harrison wiped out his year and Warner won the Super Bowl, but he cannot hide his disdain for the Bolts. All though the game, I picked up on slights and digs. Then at the end, he made a point to say the Colts should have got the ball, too.

    Please, don't need to hear him in the booth for any more Charger games.

    Did the whole overtime/sudden death system change because Colts/Manning lost?

        I used to think the same thing when Dan Fouts was announcing games.

          I think Dan tries too hard to not seem like a legendary Charger...but sometimes he seems pretty high on them too, so it balances out. Overall, he can be kind of annoying for any fan of a team that isn't doing well...he can be downright "Collinsworth" like at times...

            IMO he's still bitter about Rodney.

              I think that's Dan's thing. its not that he hates them - he wants to prove himself an impartial professional broadcaster - he bends too far to not appear biased to Chargers. just a guess ...

                I like Dan's calling of games. He says it like it is. If he's critical of a players play...he says so. I don't see how that's being biased for or against.

                  I thought he was more balanced more recently. It was his early commentary days when i sensed a "no, really, i'm not a charger homer" over-bending the most. as far as color commentators go, he's better than avg imo - but thats really just personal taste.

                    I always wonder if Kurt Warner ever thanked Rodney Harrison for injuring Trent Green and he becoming the starter and of course the rest is history because we all seen what was to become of the Rams that season.
