Apparently, you don't want anyone from my beloved Chargers medical staff to help you out in any way, shape, or form.
For the last few years, Chargers players have suffered numerous injuries in training camp, before the season has even begun. Derwin James, a potential stud in the defensive backfield, has been hurt two years in a row in training camp.
Now comes the news that Tyrod Taylor had to miss Sunday's game because his lung was punctured(!?!) while he was receiving a painkilling shot from a apparently confused member of the Chargers medical staff. Though this may bode well for the future because of Justin Hebert's emergence as the future, try telling that to Tyrod Taylor.
Who's in charge of the medical procedures with the Los Angeles Chargers, Frank Burns? (Hoping someone gets the reference)
Your thoughts.....

Frank Burns in the movie actually caused a soldier's death and Frank turned and blamed it on an orderly. I enjoyed the Frank in the TV series. The movie one was a vile person. Plus he was a Bible-thumper. Not really an interesting character. TV Frank was a cartoon....and that's what made him funny as hell. They made him real in one episode - the one where Major Houlihan gets married. As she is flying off with her husband, Frank stands there all alone, watches her go hands in pockets and says sadly to himself, "Bye, Margaret." Great moment. But then they brought in Major Winchester. Was funny for a bit....but we all missed Frank and the stupidity and hijinks the show built around him. Show got too serious after Frank left.

There's another cool Frank Burns moment in the episode where Margaret announces her engagement. In the mess tent, she is endlessly blabbering about Donald, and Frank asks Hawkeye and BJ about a young nurse that he has his eyes on. Margaret asks Frank if isn't she a bit too young to be asking out, and Frank responds that he would like to try a younger model for a change. Margaret goes off in a snit, and Frank actually shares a genuine laugh with Hawk and BJ. A very cool moment that maybe should have happened more on the show. And btw, Winchester was a better character than Frank. The show wasn't better in the Winchester years, but he wasn't the problem. A much more well rounded character than Frank who could also hold his own against Hawkeye, which was better for the show. |

And maybe if Larry Linville had remained we could have gotten more of that. Frank could still have been a jerk, but he could have been more human. But then again, I didn't want that. Hell, I loved it when the guys watched Frank's home movies and laughed their asses off. Frank walks in, "You picked a bad time to watch a dirty movie!" I didn't dislike Winchester. Yes, the show needed a stronger foil than Frank for Hawkeye and BJ. It's just that I loved the early episodes because they were insanely funny with really crazy comedy. Henry's desk going up, up, up and away. General MacArthur saluting Klinger in his Statue Of Liberty get up. Crap like that was laugh out loud funny. What a way to end an episode:

What a way to end an episode: I agree that the early Trapper/Henry years were the best, and the first couple of seasons with BJ/Potter were just as good. I've said this before in other threads, basically with MASH, it's all about BJ's moustache. Once that moustache showed up, things got a lot more hit or miss on MASH. |

That's funny because we used to say the same thing. You'd come across a MASH episode on TV and you'd look to see if BJ had his moustache. If yes, we knew it wasn't going to be a laugh-fest.
