Isn't the trade deadline up? And why would we want Phillip Rivers?

Rack the Culpepper-Rivers trade deal right up there with the Hershel Walker trade.

HAHA.. Where do u get all them hilarious animations Del?!

I believe they mean after the current season.

Del Rio · 10-25-2005, 04:42 PM

That's one hell of a rumor then being a year away LMAO!!!

The reasoning behind that is the Chargers have some cap room, and two good QB's

That's the problem though they have TWO good QB's already. I think that is the dumbest rumor I have ever heard on here in the last year and that is saying a lot.

Del where do u get ur animations at?

I agree it is the dumbest rumor i've heard too.. No way are we trading away our franchise QB for a pretty much rookie who hasn't even started a game

I make some, I get some off the other boards I frequent.

Gaming boards mostly.

I work in a graphic design office so we all send each other junk all day, it piles up. These are the tame ones, the ones I feel safe posting here LOL.
