So today the Chargers came out with a HUGE win beating the Kansas City Chiefs. Until about 5 minutes left in the 4th quarter the Chargers were going to hold on to another disappointing loss against a terrible football team. The Chargers scored on a late touchdown and missed the two point conversion. That put them down 21-16. They needed a BIG onside kick recovery and...THEY GOT IT. A huge hit by a few Charger players released the ball from Bowe's hands.
With a Charger recovery, they move down the field pretty fast, but also eating up a lot of clock. They got their touchdown and were up 22-21 after another failed 2-pt conversion. So it was up to the defense to take the Chargers to a win. It came down to a field goal with 2 seconds left, and the Chiefs missed the field goal. CHARGERS WON!
Happy day, it wasnt the prettiest way to win but it worked. We have two more tough tests for our own team. Chargers have a road game in Tampa Bay against a Bucs team that HAS to win as well to get into the playoffs. They are coming off a loss today against the Falcons in overtime. The Bucs are going to come out with everything possible to take down the Chargers. If Rivers and Tomlinson as well as a shaky inconsistent defense all show up looking for a playoff opportunity, then we can beat the Bucs and hope for a Broncos loss to the Bills. That will be another big hill for the Chargers, if they can beat the Bucs and the Broncos lose to the Bills then we just have to beat the Broncos to get into the playoffs. It may sound like its not possible at all, but it is possible and there are always miracles that occur.
LETS GO CHARGERS

CHARGERS: Hopes For Playoff Have All But Been Schott Down
WELL HERE IT IS THE SAD TALE OF A TEAM DESTINED FOR A THEIR FIRST SUPER BOWL CHAMPIONSHIP IN 2008 AND YET IT WONT HAPPEN.
The Chargers have to go 3-0 their last 3 games (Chiefs, Bucs, and Broncos) to make the playoffs. While I believe they have a chance to do this, maybe beat the Bucs, the one problem that lies in their path is the BRONCOS. The Broncos have 3 games left to be played in which they need to go 0-3. Next week's match for them is the Panthers. I believe the Panthers are better than the Broncos and will beat them. The next game following the Panthers will be the, (insert shaking of head and laughter), Buffalo Bills. The team the Chargers lost too and the following games which the Bills have gone...1-6 OUCH!
Now I will be praying, fasting, and burning whatever candles I have to make sure the Bills beat the Broncos. Because I know, I know, the next week the Chargers will be in ready form to beat the Pony's! After Hochalee-Hockalei-Hawkalee, whatever, the call the ref made which should have ensured a Charger victory, I know the Chargers want payback!
Last year's match up between them at Qualcomm brought out the toughness and side of Philip Rivers that nobody had ever seen. It was awesome, all the taunting going on between Rivers and the Broncos.
ALthouh, it has been a disappointing season for us Bolts fans, the fact is if we can beat the Broncos, like the Padres beat the Dodgers in '96 - moment of silence for Ken Caminiti- then it will be one of the greatest victories of Chargers history. If we cannot make it past them some things need to happen.
1. Fire Norv Turner
2. Fire staff members who have let Chargers talent slide
3. Institute a whole new agenda for players to play to the best of their ability
4. Provide a defense that can keep the aerial attack under wraps
5. Add new players to offense - i.e. offensive line, fullback, and wide receiever
6. Help LaDainian Tolinson get his ring! This guy has busted his butt for the team for so many years and deserves a ring, just like Gwynn on the Pads deserved a world series ring
7. Hire me to be an entry-level marketing and events coordinator
The Chargers are too talented to let the next season be a waste. They only have a season or two left in this dream team til players will start to leave. But I believe they can continue to make the right moves to keep this team first in the West and in the AFC. I mean really look where the Chiefs are and the Raiders. And the Broncos dont really have that Elway type team.
GO CHARGERS!

How Do You Write The Perfect Song?
I've been looking at blogs on country music, songwriting, and looking at various artists songwriting techniques. So how do you write the perfect song? Obviously, a song is personal to the writer, the reader, and when composed, the listener.
But in a the current musical radio play such as Top 40 or even in country music 'POP COUNTRY', how do you write a song that extends to the masses? I'm studying the right way to compose a song, but everyone has their own way of telling their story or a story that affects them.
I once heard Justin Timberlake talk about writing "Losing My Way" after he saw the show Intervention on A & E. As well his song, "What Goes Around (Comes Around)" was a song he wrote about his friend who was dating Elisha Cuthbert. Apparently, Cuthbert had cheated on his friend with one of his friends, but he took that experience and made it connect with his own experinences as well as hsi fan base.
In my own experiences with life, I look at every aspect in terms of what genre I am writing for. When I am writing for POP/R&B Club jams or MJ'esque songs, I try to take the experiences of the city life and apply it to the song. When it comes to country-folk-style songs, I try to take experiences from myself and others by reading blogs, magazines, newspapers, or talking to people directly about their life.
For instance, when I was driving home from Provo, Utah this last August I stopped off in Yermo, Calif. to get gas and I was basically at the bottom of the barrell in terms of money and just my situation in life. When I was pumping my gas I noticed a guy searching through trash cans for cans to get money. I had a load of change and decided to give him the change as well as some food I had. I talked to him for a sec or two about his life and we were off our separate ways. But I took from that experience and searched my soul of how we could be in a similar situation in terms of money, but different where we were in life. I took from that experience and tried to write according to that.
