NFL: Chargers welcome Little League world champions


By BERNIE WILSON

SAN DIEGO — The Little League World Series champions from suburban Chula Vista got to skip school Tuesday and meet the San Diego Chargers.

During their first full day back home, the players from Park View Little League watched practice and then ran through a tunnel formed by the Chargers, shaking hands with the huge football players as they went past.
The Chargers seemed to have as much fun as the kids. LaDainian Tomlinson, among others, kidded 6-foot-2, 212-pound slugger Luke Ramirez about his size.
