The Interview
LaDainian Tomlinson
CHARGERS RB

When number 21 yells, "Fore," you'd better pay attention.

Dan Patrick : What are you doing in the off-season?

LaDainian Tomlinson : I'm doing some commercials and appearances. Playing golf.

DP: What's tougher, running the football or playing golf?

LT: Playing golf, definitely. Especially when you're in Tahoe [for the pro-am] and they treat you like you're a pro, and they've got people along the fairway. They don't understand that they're going to get hit. I remember my first year, I lost one to the right when I was going onto the green. And I said, "Fore!" And it hit a guy, and when I got up there, he was laid out. The paramedics were there, he had a bag of ice on his head. It was horrible.

DP: Did you sign his head?

LT: No, but I did sign the golf ball.

DP: Now they know the pain that you feel when you get hit on the football field. Hardest hit ever?

LT: Probably James Farrior from Pittsburgh . He separated the AC joint in my shoulder.
