09:40 AM ET 11.27 | A recent item from Kevin Acee of the San Diego Union-Tribune suggested that John Spanos, the son of Dean Spanos and grandson of Alex Spanos, could become the next G.M. of the Chargers. A source with knowledge of the situation tells PFT that this won't happen. "John Spanos will never serve as the Chargers' general manager," the source said. "Some day in the future he may be in a position over all of the team's football operations and be responsible for hiring a general manager, but that's well down the road and he will never be the team's general manager."

So much fot that conspiracy theory

OK so if you couldn't watch the Steeler game live would you avoid learning the outcome before you watched it?

November 27, 2011  09:48 AM ET

Because they've been so successful.

True enough, it's actually hard to believe that they've never even made it to the big dance nevermind actually winning a ring

Lost here. The Chargers made it to one superbowl, 1994. Lost to the 49ers . Steve Young was the QB in SanFran. all the same. Classic underachievers.

Yeah 50 they got there with Fouts in 94, hell they won the AFL title in I think 63 but those were other teams. The one we have watched over the past 10 years has been so loaded with talent that they should have at least 2 rings

November 27, 2011  10:12 AM ET

Philip Rivers = Boomer Esiason. Meh.

Well don't blame AJ, he claims he is a genius at drafting. I watched that 63 game on TV. Still have old football cards from then.

JJ thinks the same thing too! Although I will give him a few props for this year.

November 27, 2011  10:17 AM ET

Well... He couldn't be worse that AJ, could he?
