San Diego Fans Unaware BY R. L. Eaph - Ace Reporter Associates Press San Diego Ca. - “Marty Ball” is alive and well in San Diego. Last season, the Chargers completed an amazing turn-around. The Chargers went from having the first pick in the 2004 draft to a 12-4 record last season. So we thought it would be nice get a view from the perspective of a Charger’s fan. Looking for answers, we sat out to find some ‘real’ Charger fans. At first, our search for long-time Charger fans was not going very well. Sure, we located many fans that said they had been Charger fans since last October or November. But we were having trouble finding any who had been fans for the past few seasons. Oddly enough, our searching finally produced two long time Charger fans on, of all places, an Oakland Raider’s Internet fan site. For some reason, these young men were quite shy about revealing their true identities. One identified himself as old man Again’s son, Punked and the other would only admit that he was a person who knew what he smoked. To simply things, he will be known as the Smokin Gentleman. We began the interview by asking them about “Marty Ball” and how it had changed their lives. But all they wanted to talk about was how the Chargers had swept the Raiders the previous year. Mr. Again's son was very anxious to begin talking and the Smokin Gentleman was happy to put his one cents worth in. Here is a small excerpt from the interview: P. Again: “We swept the Raiders last year, man. Can you believe it?” S. Man: “Yeah, swept ‘em man, beat ‘em 3 times.” R. L. Eaph: “If I remember correctly, these two teams only played each other in two games.” S. Man: “Whooooa man. I added ‘em up in my head and got three. But you say we just beat ‘em twice?” P. Again: “Yeah man, I think it was twice. And now we are waiting on Commissioner Paul Tagiblue to present us with our trophy. R. L. Eaph: “Trophy? What trophy are you speaking of?” P.Again: “What trophy?? You're kidding, right? Man, we swept the Raiders, we are world champs.” S. Man: “Yeah man, world champs. C-H-A-M- uh- uh.” R. L. Eaph: “ P?” S Man: “No, that’s not it. Anyway, however you spell it, we are champs, world champs.”” R. L. Eaph: “ I think we are missing something here guys. You don’t get a world championship trophy by just sweeping the Raiders.” S. Man: “Nooooooooo man. You can’t fool us. We swept the Raiders and we want our trophy.” P. Again: “Yeah, onward to the awards ceremony.” R. L. Eaph: “The NFL championship trophy has already been awarded. You have to win in the play-offs to get a trophy.” S. Man: “Playoffs? What’s that? I wasn’t aware that there was such a thing as the ‘playoffs’.” P Again: “Wait a minute, now that you mention it, I think I have heard of the playoffs before but we were not aware that there was such a thing as winning in the playoffs. We thought a playoff win was mythical thing.” R. L. Eaph: “With a coach like Marty, I can understand you being unaware of what a playoff victory is. But I still do not understand how the Smokin Gentleman can add one and one and get three.” S. Man: “Are you making fun of me ‘cause I ain’t got no brain?” (End excerpt) So there you have it from the perspective of a San Diego Charger's fan. If these two are indicative of all San Diego fans, there idea of a successful season is beating the Raiders. One fan was unaware that the NFL has a playoff. And here's the kicker the other was unaware that a playoff game can actually be won. Yes, “Marty Ball” is alive and well in San Diego.
