Merriman is entering a contract year and coming off an injury, and not only does he have to prove he isn't injury prone, he now has this lingering over him?
Just sad. -- Some people don't really think about what they have to lose in the long run.

Tila Tequila is bipolar and is said to have multiple personality disorders. Lets not throw Merriman under the bus until more reports comes out.

Really? Multiple personalities? That raises her a few points in my eyes.

No matter what her psychiatric situation is, it's never acceptable to choke a woman...

It's not verified weather Merriman really choked her or not. It's just a report. She's known to do this kinda crap where she calls the cops with fake ****.

I was actually sitting here thinking about football season starting next week. I thought about last year on how our defense sucked when Shawn went down. Then, I was like, well he is back and under Ron Rivera for a full summer the Chargers are going to be in a great position this season.
.....then not 1 minute later, I turn on my laptop and see Shawns Mug on Yahoo....

I am yet to be convinced that the Chargers can win a Super Bowl with the defense built around him.

I'm with GIlbert, I'm not sure this is entirely true.
When I read the headline I thought, damn, that's pretty bad. But then I read who the girl was, and I wouldn't be shocked if this was all made up.

He is literally three times a big as she is. He's over 270 lbs and she can't be much over 90 lbs, even considering her assets. If he lost his temper with her, I can't see how there'd be any doubt. Either there will be giant bruises, broken bones, etc., or she's full of crap.

So apparently she was drunk at his house and he didn't want her driving.
Sounds like she's just a nutbag.

Chris Brown is like 90 pounds, remember what Rihanna looked like?? Tila would look 100x worse.

As much as I dislike Shawn Merriman and the Chargers he is innocent until proven guilty. Too many people assume when a big name star gets accused of something that he is automatically guilty. Let's wait for some more facts before we chastise him.

I call BS. Merriman would have decapitated her if he choked her. My money's on Tila Nguyen lying, women always get the benefit of the doubt.

Damn, she's come a long way since I used to talk to her and some of the other girls on the HIN shows.
