    Ha! I saw it, but I didn't take the bait. If you see "LockerDome"- run.

    I'm usually pretty good at sniffing those things out, but fell for it this morning. Just for a second, but that was more than enough.

    Yeah I didn't see it but I had a guy at work that really fell for it. He came up to me and was like man your team season is already over. I asked why to which he said Ben blew his fingers off. I was like I doubt that I would have heard about that. Pulled up twitter showed him there was nothing and he felt really dumb. Like he fully believed Ben blew his fingers off.

    I watch so little ESPN etc these days. Sports center used to be pretty funny back in the early 90's, but now it just bores me.

    No I didn't get suckered by the fake Facebook article because I'm not on Facebook. But I did get fooled by this thread.

    The only time I go to FB is to check Don Rosa's page so I didn't see it but that's pretty funny. My mom falls for stupid bullcrap all the time though. My wife one night just blurts out "OH NO! BETTY WHITE JUST DIED!" and I said, calmly, "where did you see that"? She goes "your mom just put it on fb..." I said "It's fake" and then got on with my life. LOL! Now if someone puts that Don Rosa dies on there... THAT will be a different story. LOL!

    http://forums.chargers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=139

    Check out the code of conduct and the rules.....even Harryo the Mild would have been suspended.

    I only check FB about once a week or so, and that's usually because I get a message saying someone tagged me or something. So no, didn't see this on FB, but I figured it was a joke title when I saw it here.

    I usually only believe it if I see it on facebook. I've literally never seen a single thing on there that wasn't perfectly accurate. Well that and Twitter.
