LaDainian Tomlinson is a Special Player...
I know it gets said alot, that a player is "special," but most of the times it just doesn't really mean anything.
LT, on the other hand, is something else. I watch him play week in and week out, and he simply amazes me. He's got moves to stop someone in their tracks, and then speed to simply run away from them.
He's the best running back I've seen in a LONG time...and what makes him so great is that teams KNOW he's going to be getting the ball, yet he still racks up about 100 yards a game, and 2 TDs a game.
He also looks like he has alot of fun when he's out there playing...and that's important I think. He also has a business type attitude when he scores. He's been there before and he acts like it...much like Barry Sanders and Emmit Smith used to be.
I think we might be seeing a guy that could end up holding alot of records guys...let's enjoy watching him while we can.

back to back 4 touchdown games and counting.
ever notice how the opposing team even helps him to his feet and pats him on the back after he just shoved it down their throat? he is extremely well regarded amongst his peers.

You start out motorcycling with a full bag of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience before you empty the bag of luck.
Some people are like slinkies; they're good for nothing but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them down a flight of stairs.
ummmm.....he either has or will beat Jim Browns record for fewest games to 100 touchdowns. that says enough in itself.
Yep, he did it yesterday against Denver. I'm not a fan of the Chargers, but LT is a freaking amazing RB and a standup guy. The league needs more players like him, and less like TO.

Agreed. If the game had more guys like this, it would be a much better thing to watch.

yep. its a shame to even watch people like TO, Moss and them because with their attitudes and antics they are ruining their own careers and nobody wants them on their team. they want to be traded to a team who is goin to the super bowl, well shit i mean what player in the nfl doesnt want to just walk on a team and win a ring. i think chad johnson is an exception because yeah he talks alot but hes not disruptive and cancerous to his team. the worst part about it is they legitly could be the best receivers in the league
im still not over what eli manning did. he entered the draft then got drafted by the chargers and said, nope i dont wanna play there!! what kinda crap is that? the chargers ended up better off anyway without him luckily for them with Rivers but still the point is when you enter the draft your putting yourself up for grabs by any team, not the one who you want to play for
