Happy Baja Charger Fans

Bob H - 9-11-2012 at 10:20 PM

There are many San Diego Charger fans in Baja!

Yes !!!! Chargers took down the Raiders in their house for game 1 of the season. It feels so nice to see all those sad Raider fans in their haloween costumes leaving the stadium!

Go Chargers.

Edit: Oh, and the Padres WIN AGAIN !!! Go Padres !!!

That's GREAT !!!

Go CHARGERS !!

David K - 9-11-2012 at 11:42 PM

Yah, and where were you last night when I posted about the game? Doug took it down because someone complained it "wasn't Baja related" to which I answered yes it is, the San Diego Chargers are the closest NFL team to Baja California.

You are soooo correct. The Chargers are a big time team favorite in Northern Baja, for sure. Can't believe whatever you posted was deleted!!

Gooooooooo Chargers!!

When I'm in San Felipe on a Sun., and the Chargers
are playing, I always go to the Bar Miramar to
watch the game, there I think that satisifies the Baja
requirement. A win is a win, but was anybody
IMPRESSED by the that win? Previous Ram fan,
Charger fan for 20 yrs.

True enough. If you took all the baja norte fans out of the stands at a charger home game, the place would never survive the black-out.

DavidE - 9-12-2012 at 11:11 AM

Grumble, Grumble...

Someone ought to start a streaming service to broadcast games after they are played on the internet. A 40 year old game is still brand new if I haven't seen it yet.

woody with a view - 9-12-2012 at 03:11 PM

a win is a win. good to see the defense kicking someone around for a change. the offense will come around, eventually.

Doug pulled it cuz I added Niners to the mix

You guys just keep on smiling,
you will likely win a couple more.

Go SFGiants
Go Niners

Real teams with real results....

Beating the packers is (15-1 last year).

I assume that you're talking about Alex Smith.
Smith grew up in La Mesa, California. His father, Douglas D. Smith, was the Executive Director at the high school that Alex attended, Helix Charter High School, until June 30, 2010.[2] As a starter at Helix during his junior and senior years Smith led his team to a record of 25-1, including two San Diego CIF section championships. He was named to the first-team all-conference and all-county squads in the San Diego CIF system. Smith also earned the conference offensive player of the year twice, and twice won the team MVP for Helix. During his time at Helix, Smith set a school record by throwing for six touchdowns in one game, and recorded the second-highest completion percentage in San Diego CIF history. While at Helix, he played with 2005 Heisman Trophy winner (since vacated) Reggie Bush. Smith and Bush were later finalists for the 2004 Heisman, making it the first time a high school had two finalists at the same ceremony.

Smith was president of his senior class in high school, and was also an excellent student who graduated with a 4.4 GPA one semester early by earning college credits through a program with San Diego State University and a dozen Advanced Placement tests.[3]

Smith attended the University of Utah and played for the Utah Utes, wearing number 11. He finished fourth in voting for the 2004 Heisman Trophy and was selected as the 2004 Mountain West Conference Player of the Year. Smith posted a 21–1 record as a starter in college, while leading a high-powered spread offense under head coach Urban Meyer. He led the Utes to victories in the 2005 Fiesta Bowl and the 2003 Liberty Bowl. Smith earned a bachelor's degree in economics in two years with a 3.74 GPA, having matriculated with 64 credit hours, and began work on a master's degree in the field before being drafted.

durrelllrobert - 9-17-2012 at 04:11 PM

i only posted his High School record because he graduated from the same one that I did + La Mesa is so close to the Baja border.

thebajarunner - 9-17-2012 at 04:25 PM

We just know that he is doing a very nice job here for our Niners.
Tough being the elite team in the league and then having the down years we had, some of the worst with Alex.
But, amazingly someone had more faith in him than most of us "49er Faithful" and he is a credit to Helix, or Utes or wherever-
Heck, he was born in Seattle and that is close to my hometown,
guess we all can claim him,

I read that one of his ancestors came as an immigrant from Austria
Illegal no doubt.
That should be proof enough that this thread belongs in Baja territory.

Trueheart - 9-17-2012 at 05:31 PM

My team is the 49ers, but I like the Chargers as well. I'm glad both are off to 2-0 starts. That said, the Chargers have beaten the Raiders and the Titans, and I think neither of those two is playoff bound ... both are 0-2, so Chargers should be 2-0 or else.

A better measuring stick will come after game six. By then, SD will have had to play KC and Denver, plus Saints and Falcons. There's at least two playoff teams in that group. Hopefully SD is at least 4-2 by that point.

Helix also gets to claim Bill Walton as well. Different sport but still a highly decorated alumnea.

SD sports has produced more Heisman Trophy winners than any other metro area in the U.S.

bajajurel - 9-17-2012 at 06:48 PM

Hooray - they have beat 2 bad teams. R U watching the Atlanta Game? They better be ready for the Falcons.

Oh, the Chargers will be ready for Atlanta. Early line has the Chargers favored by 3. Atlanta has to fly here for this game and had a short week to prepare. It won't be easy, and it should be a great game to watch.

Go Chargers ! Alone in AFC West first place !

Would that be Orenthal James "O. J." Simpson AKA "the slasher who is now serving a minimum of 9 years without possibility of parole in a Nevada prison?

The "Juice" is now spending his time just a few miles north of Lovelock, NV.

What a joke of a game. Spanos is an old opportunistic fool, Norv is half-wit coach, Rivers has tunnel vision and will NEVER grow up. Support your local youth sports, they have more heart and drive than all these overpaid whiners. I am done with the pros for a long time.
