About Mike »

My name is Mike Kranzler, and I am a recent graduate of Vanderbilt University, where I followed in the steps of famous alums like Skip Bayless, Buster Olney, and Lee Jenkins as a sportswriter for our student newspaper, the Vanderbilt Hustler. I have been extensively published by the San Diego Union-Tribune and the Scout Network, and have also freelanced for the Reading (Pa.) Eagle and ESPN.com.

I grew up in San Diego, but I currently live in Miami, where I am interning for the South Florida Super Bowl Host Committee as we prepare for Super Bowl XLIV and Pro Bowl 2010 at Dolphins Stadium this winter.

Please feel free to shoot me any questions or comments you may have, and I'll try to work your suggestions into future articles.

How deep do you think the Chargers are?

This article will test it.

I really want some Chargers fans input.

I appreciate it.
