It seems like a million years ago, but this happened many Sunday mornings during the 1960's football season when the Rams were playing at home in the Coliseum. I would get dressed and head out to the Rams Horn restaurant for lunch. This restaurant, located in Encino in the San Fernando Valley of Los Angeles, was owned by Don Paul, a Rams executive, and some other Rams bigwigs whose names I cannotby troublefree - RamsFootballFans.com
I've been a customer of Sunday Ticket for years because I can afford it and it is convenient. However, when you consider the increasing number of games NFL now schedules on early Sunday from Europe, on Sunday night, on Monday night, and on Thursday night, there are now too-few games remaining on the schedule for Sunday Ticket to offer on an exclusive basis. It's just not worth it anymore. I preby troublefree - RamsFootballFans.com
I guess I am one of the few posters who pays full price for NFL Sunday Ticket. Thankfully, I can well afford the expense, and at my age (88) I don't need the stress of searching for other less convenient ways to get all the NFL games. That being said, I must bring to your attention two business practices of Sunday Ticket that are annoying, and of questionable legality. First, they re-enrolledby troublefree - RamsFootballFans.com
Because the Rams have so many young players they should lose to Detroit on opening day. However, the team will improve week to week as the season progresses and their young talent gets more experience. Should they play Detroit in the playoffs, the Rams should win that one.by troublefree - RamsFootballFans.com

My daughter was invited to attend a gala fundraiser, hosted by the Rams, and held at the Lake Sherwood Country Club near Thousand Oaks. (Her good friend's father is a wealthy Rams fan and a generous contributor to Rams charities. He paid for two tables and invited my daughter.) She showed me a photo of her standing between two large men -- she looking like a dwarf next to them. She is not a footbby troublefree - RamsFootballFans.com
SF 27, Rams 17. Rams are a good team, perhaps good enough to make the playoffs, but SF seems to be the class of the NFC and top choice to make the Super Bowl. Young Rams players will learn a lot in this game by competing against perhaps the best.by troublefree - RamsFootballFans.com
I am not happy with the quality of the TV picture and other technical aspects of the telecast compared to the super-professional job done on NFL games by the networks. I had problems with the sound also. I wonder if it's just me, or if others had problems too.by troublefree - RamsFootballFans.com

Rams coaches (and fellow posters) have had a long look at a number of new offensive linemen. Is there a single one who has a chance to start next season? Are there maybe one or two who might be legitimate backups? Or do the Rams let them all go? I'd like the opinion from some of you people who know your football.by troublefree - RamsFootballFans.com
When people post about next year's roster, I have this thought: Every time the Rams' "stars" are mentioned, the name Robinson is included. Now I'm not anywhere near as football sophisticated as most of my fellow posters, but it seems to me that, in the games that Robinson has played for the Rams, he has been a huge disappointment. Seems to me we can do better. Am I missing something?by troublefree - RamsFootballFans.com
Now's the time of the year some of us post how we threatened to cancel DirecTV and, as a result, we got them to provide us with NFL Sunday Ticket free. I just got off the phone and yes, they came through again. It's just that, even with this discount, the cost of DirecTV is very high because we subscribers are nickel-and-dimed with other charges and they really add up. Thankfully I can afford toby troublefree - RamsFootballFans.com
Dickerson held out. The Rams gave in and gave him a raise. But part of his new conrtract said that he would not hold out again (got that info from Jim Healy). Nevertheless, he did hold out a second time, and now that Rams said enough and traded him. Pardon me, folks, but I believe in the sanctity of contracts. I don't regard Dickerson as some kind of hero, despite his immense talent. . .by troublefree - RamsFootballFans.com

I find it difficult to remember a prevent defense used by the Rams or any other NFL team where the opposing team was "prevented" from marching down the field in increments until, at least, they reached the Red Zone. Unless I'm dead wrong, it seems to me the Rams play a form of prevent defense most of the time.by troublefree - RamsFootballFans.com
Question: If the Rams extend Michel, can he and Akers play in the same backfield together? Seems to me that would open up all kinds of offensive options. Am I wrong?.by troublefree - RamsFootballFans.com
I remember a game against Green Bay in the 1960"s. The Rams were trailing with less than a minute to go, and the Packers gained possession. At that time, my friend and I believed things were hopeless so we left the stadium to beat the crowd. While walking to our car, we heard a loud roar from inside the stadium. It appears the Rams had used their three timeouts to force Green Bay to punt. Thby troublefree - RamsFootballFans.com

Made my annual call to DirecTV Retention Dept. (also called Loyalty Support Dept) threatening to drop the service unless they discounted NFL Sunday Ticket. In past years they always came through with something. Last year they gave me a huge discount which made Sunday Ticket virtually free. This year no dice -- so far. No discounts available, they say.
