MARRIED: Yup...12 years and counting!

KIDS: Nope...just a cat named Quincy.

WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE EX CHARGER: Chuck Muncie

WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE CURRENT CHARGER: Shaun Phillips....who just happens to be from Willingboro, NJ where I currently live. Gates is a close second though.

WHERE HAVE YOU SEEN THE CHARGERS PLAY IN PERSON: Saw the heartbreaker in Philly (blocked kick) on my anniversary in '05, the OT thriller when LT stiff-armed the hell out of Ryan Clark in DC the day after my birthday in '05 too, and I saw the home opener in '06 when they crushed Tennessee...never forget that trip!

SEASON TICKET HOLDER: Nope, but that's the first thing I'm doing after setting my family up if I ever get rich!

SUNDAY TICKET SUBSCRIBER: Have to...or I'd never see any dang games! Record every game and watch at least 2 more times...to key in on certain players and plays. It's my personal film study and I just love watching them play...win or lose!

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE CHARGER MOMENT: Kellen Winslow blocking that kick in '82....epic moment in my life! Don't know why...I'm a relatively well adjusted person and I know football isn't that important in the grand scheme of things, but so help me...I love watching it and the Chargers in particular!

WHAT IS YOUR WORST CHARGER MOMENT: That blocked Kaeding kick in Philly was one of the most surreal moments in my life.....I couldn't believe it was actually happening as I stood there in the stadium watching it!

ARE YOU PLANNING TO MAKE A GAME THIS YEAR: Not this year.

HOW DID YOU FIND GTP: My homie.....AFL Chargers brought my attention to the site back in '04.....so I'm kind of an OG I guess!

WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE EX CHARGER: Fouts, Seau
WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE CURRENT CHARGER: Rivers, Tolbert
WHERE HAVE YOU SEEN THE CHARGERS PLAY IN PERSON: Metrodome x3
SEASON TICKET HOLDER: Nope
SUNDAY TICKET SUBSCRIBER: Nope. Lucky the Chefs and Donkeys are fairly regional teams so I see the bolts on CBS 4-5 times a year usually.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE CHARGER MOMENT: Taking out the Steelers and going to the Super Bowl on that last second batted down pass in the end zone in 1994. I was in California in the Navy stationed in the Bay Area and was freaking out. That was the last time I saw this team truly overachieve.

WHAT IS YOUR WORST CHARGER MOMENT:It's more of a compilation of deja vu Groundhog's Day type thing over the last several years watching this team consistently look like world beaters over a nice stretch of games and then choking the life out of the fans by choking games they should win over and over, just to get your hopes back up and do it againt the next year. I just want us to live up to expectations or over achieve one time.
