Sorry pal but I gotta disagree. If you don't want the other team celebrating on your field, you DEFEND it. Your team failed to do that.
As far as I know the US department of State has not declared the Charger's Bolt at midfield a national monument.
And the way that I see it, you disrespect your opponent, expect to get it back. It is well documented how the Chargers talked down to the Pats the week heading into the game, incited them, talked about hitting Brady in the mouth, had created bad blood starting from their actions LAST YEAR etc.
What it boils down to is this. Shawne Merriman is no SAINT. He is a THUG, an ARROGANT PUNK, and a verified STEROID USER. And for LT to base his crusade off disrespect directed towards Shawne Merriman is simply LUDICROUS!
