I don't have a huge problem with it. Would it or will it anger me when it is done to the Pats... absolutely. But if they want to do it fine, they earned the right to act like jerks.

What peaves me though, is the complete hypocrisy of the Chargers. Last year in Denver, Rivers was showing up the Denver fans raising his hand to his ear, as if to show that he can't hear them. But when the Pats go in and win and celebrate, Ellis Hobbs is called "the sorriest corner in the league" by Rivers and they are deemed classless by LdT. Doesn't really fly in my book.

At least the Colts are professionals. The Chargers are a joke.

I liked the announcers spoke of LT and mentioned that he patterns himself after Payton on and off the field.

I thought, "WHAT?"

I was only lucky enough to see Sweetness' last few seasons, but I never recall him being a whiner like LT.

As for Rivers, he is also a whiner. It was just a couple of weeks ago when Rivers and LT were fighting and then all of a sudden happy when they won.

They will get theirs... likely when Tenn goes in their and shuts down LT and Rivers throws away the game.

Also, the announcers mentioned a brief history b/w Cutler and SD... does anyone have a scoop?

Yeah I saw this on ProFootballtalk too http://www.profootballtalk.com/rumormill.htm

Of course what everyone fails to realize is that its only classless when other teams celebrate after BEATING the Chargers.

It's the epitome of class for the Chargers to celebrate and taunt other teams in LT's world of classiness - so his silence is understandable.

This is a heated division rivalry. Now, nothing like this would ever happen when we play the jets ro miami.

Have to agree. As much as I dislike the Jets and Dolphins, I cannot see them acting like the immature never-been-there Chargers, complaining that the Pats were celebrating, and then celebrating themselves in an even mor obnoxious way.

TO mocked Ray Lewis's chicken dance, and Lewis had no problem ("They beat us fair and square"), then Givens mocked the Eagle flap, again no problem. McNabb mocked TO's open arms TD celbration, no problem from TO. If an opposing player scored a TD at Gillette and did Moss's split-the-defense move, can you picture Moss going on national TV, saying I'm a classy guy but that player is not, and it must come from that player's head coach? And then the next day, after thinking about it, reiterate how disrespectful it was to his team? No, I cannot.

Celebrating is part of football. No one has a problem with it except the Chargers. That is cry-baby stuff, but then when the Chargers behave the same way, dong what they called classless, and saying it's different when they do it because they were exhuberant, then I have to say that the Chargers are beyond cry-babies. They are immature and hypocritical.

Chargers celebrating a win: "That's just football. We're going to the playoffs and they're not. We were exhuberant."

Chargers getting celebrated on after they lost: "Wah wah. They disrespected us. Wah wah boo hoo. It must come down from the head coach. Wah wah boo hoo, make them stop, mommy."

But the question posed in Post #1 has not been answered by the resident Charger trolls: Has LdT gone on national television, saying his team was disrespectful to the Broncos, that they should act like they've been there, and that it came from the head coach?

Philip Rivers can not run his mouth, he is terrible, was making horrible throws all game, has done nothing in this league, and now thinks he can run his mouth because he beat the terrible Broncos? I love it, Rivers is a clown, keep your mouth shut.

This is the "Patriots Fan Forum". Last time I check none of the Chargers played for the Patriots.

Rivers is Jay Cutler's daddy...he is 3-0 head-to-head.

There are 2 sides to every story though- Cutler was acting very *****y all night long, so while classless, the taunts of "baby" may have been accurate.
