Philip Rivers Fan Site

The Chargers arrived in England on Monday morning after a long flight from Buffalo, where the Chargers got handed a disappointing loss. The Chargers, along with the Saints, were selected to play in this years London game. Yippeee!

Philip Rivers did a press conference when they landed. I’ll go ahead and post a couple of excerpts, but if you want to read the whole thing head over to Chargers.com.

On Surroundings:

“It’s awesome. It’s a beautiful place and very nice. Probably as nice as any place we’ve ever stayed in. We’re looking forward to having a good week. The set-up here, the weight room, the locker room, it’s very accommodating. Hopefully we can zero in and get ready for the game, and certainly also enjoy being here.”

On the practice field at PennyHill Park Hotel reminding you of a high school field:

“Yes, it does. It’s really nice. The weather, it’s cool. It will have a little bit of a high school or college-like feel.kind of a backyard feel to it in the whole set up. It’ll be fun. It will be less of distraction maybe than we anticipated, and more of a boost. Change it up a little bit. The transition has been about as smooth as it can be, getting over here today. Obviously a long night, but it’s been good. I already feel like we’re pretty much settled in.”
