Good morning Chargers fans. I hope you’re doing well on this Thursday morning.
Here are some fresh, just out of the oven links to get your morning kickstarted in the right direction. I’m keeping this intro short and sweet but I wanted to give a quick shoutout to Adam Price, a Bolts fan currently overseas in the military. He reached out the other day simply to talk Chargers football and pick my brain on the team’s signings so far this offseason. It was an awesome surprise and I’m honored to know he could have tried to talk to anyone else but he wanted to converse with me.
So a huge thank you to Adam and the rest of you military members for your service. Stay safe, stay clean, and Go Chargers.
