LT STAYS WITH BOLTS

Over the years we've watched some of the NFL's greatest earn their stripes in one uniform, only to become nomads in the League who eventually lose their luster when they move on in the waning years of their career to another team. When that happens it seems like they are no longer the same player and an alter-ego has taken over their body in a new uniform. Brett Favre will always been the guy in green and yellow. Emmitt Smith had spurts of brilliance as a Cardinal (and in dancing shoes on Dancing With the Stars) but he will forever be known as the bruising back in gray and blue. And, it only took Thurman Thomas one season in Miami to realize that he should have closed out his career as a Buffalo Bill.

With today's blockbluster deal in San Diego it appears that LaDainian Tomlinson will not make the same mistake and his future in the city where he has become a household name and a treasure is secure.

I'm a huge Charger fan and an even bigger fan of LT's but I wonder if the Chargers are on the losing end of the deal? Since his MVP season in 2006, LT has been untouchable when he's healthy but he's spending more and more time on IR. Only time will tell if he can have another break out season and there are still questions on the offensive line.
