LT Junior Gets Cut

It's game over in San Diego for running back LaDainian Tomlinson-- the Chargers released their franchise star on Monday.

"I told him that in the 26 years that I've been in this business, it was probably the hardest thing I've had to do,'' team president Dean Spanos said. "I'm not close to a lot of the players, but there's a handful that I've been close with, and he's probably the closest. It was really difficult to tell him. But out of respect, I wanted to tell him earlier rather than later.''

LT- Lite, who will be 31 when the 2010 season begins, has not commented yet, but did say after his team's playoff loss to the New York Jets that he could play for a few more seasons.

I'm sure there is a team out there that will give him a shot. Even when he's not healthy, he's better than half the backs in the league.

PS- The real LT was never cut despite his injuries. Just sayin'.

PPS- If you don't know who the real LT is, log off this webpage now.
