"We Want Something Else! We Want Something Else!"

The big news out at Chargers training camp is that Antonio Cromartie has been sent to the principal's office for posting on Twitter without the expressed written consent of A.J. Smith.

The Twitter aspect of the story is mildly amusing, but Twitter is so yesterday. The only people who still bother with Twitter are 12-year-olds and media entities desperately trying to appeal to young people.

The part of this story that has us intrigued is Cromartie's complaint about the food at the team's complex. Our first reaction was that maybe the dude has been watching too many "M*A*S*H" reruns. Our second reaction was, what are the chances the dude has ever seen "M*A*S*H"?

Anyway, had he not been busted by team officials, maybe Cromartie's next "tweet" would've been: "I've eaten a river of liver and an ocean of fish. I've eaten so much fish, I'm ready to grow gills; I've eaten so much liver, I can only make love if I'm smothered in bacon and onions." Of course, that tweet would be done in difficult-to-decipher Tweet-speak short-hand, and we don't have the stomach to attempt what that might look like.

But the more we think about this, the more we think Cromartie might have a point about the food. After all, we are what we eat. And if the organization continues to feed the team crap, well, should we be surprised when they play like crap and under-achieve?

Perhaps Cromartie's solution will be to order take-out more often. We hear Adam's Ribs in Chicago comes highly recommended.

But for the love of all that is holy, don't forget the cole slaw.
