One reason the San Diego Chargers never won a Super Bowl with former NFL RB LaDainian Tomlinson was because of Tomlinson’s selfish attitude, according to a source with knowledge of the running back’s career. ‘That’s why the Chargers could never win the big one,’ the source said. ‘L.T. was selfish and a selfish leader. They had all the talent in the world and should have beaten the Patriots (in 2006), but they couldn’t do it because they had too many guys like L.T. and he was the ringleader.’
