LdT couldn't handle the pain? Does that mean anyone that is injured should be expected to play to their normal standards, regardless of any pain?
Everyone lies on injury reports. You're just holding LT to a different standard.
The ultimate question is:
WERE THE CHARGERS BETTER WITH LaDAINIAN OR MICHAEL TURNER AT RB?
Based on the production of LT in his limited time, Turner was the right choice. That doesn't mean that LT doesn't have heart. It's what was best for the team.
None of us really know the answer. I disagree though that LT should be defended by saying you were better without him, as if to imply some grandiose benevolence in him begging out. We do not know if he asked out or was benched. IMO, if he could play the first 2 series, he could have tried to get back out there again. I find it hard to believe Turner would tell him he cannot play another snap.
If what you are implying were correct, that Tomlinson for the good of the team decided to not play because he was less than 100%, why did he act like a child on the sidelines and not act like a teammtate supporting the other players?
