First, it was New England Patriots QB Tom Brady that sent fantasy football owners scurrying for their waiver wires this week. Now, any of them that had the San Diego Chargers defense may have to go looking elsewhere...
After only four opinions, and ignoring them all, Bolts LB Shawne Merriman ((pictured, thanks Getty Images)) has decided he will not play in the 2008 season after all- opting for season-ending surgery on his left knee. The ACL and PCL were torn in a game against the Tennessee Titans last December.

"Shawne informed me he did not feel right and thought it best to shut it down," Smith said in a statement. "The road to winning the AFC West just got more difficult, but not impossible. Nothing is impossible. Shawne is a great player and an inspirational leader. He will be missed. We wish him a successful surgery and a speedy recovery."
