Lightning Boneheads

A.J. Smith is a moron. Dean Spanos is a blockhead. The San Diego Chargers are a wretched organization. The reasons their draft selection is annually top five are painfully evident. Personally, I hope their ensuing decade is losing and miserable.

Following a 14-2 season, Spanos fired Marty Schottenheimer. Spanos’ reasons included Schottenheimer and Smith’s adversarial relationship, as well as Schottenheimer’s non-retention of assistant coaches and desire to employ his brother. Spanos’ decision was erroneous. He has done a disservice to his fans. He has validated their doubt concerning his ownership acumen.

Smith should have been terminated. Schottenheimer attempted to mend their relationship. Smith refused discussion. Franchise management requires maturity. Obviously, Smith is infantile. He is an unproven executive. Schottenheimer is a Hall of Fame leader. Schottenheimer’s dismissal and Smith’s retention is a tragic.

Since 1970, the Chargers have recorded ten winning seasons. Schottenheimer led three. Retribution should visit San Diego. This firing was shocking, unexpected, and wrong. For this, Smith and Spanos deserve infinite suffering.
