Congrats! - Yesterday

There is definitely some kind of addiction in it. For me cars are the same way. I would own 20. I just bought a Les Paul with a rounder neck that I like... actually love and a few weeks before I bought a Telecaster Vintera (the new Baja tele) which I also love... once I do some work on the frets. Hard to believe a $1200 guitar would come like that but... I love the sound AND the neck shape. Y

They said it had to be close... - 6 days ago

I guess that is open to interpretation but definitely not close in my opinion... If it had been on a game winner I might have a stronger opinion.

I feel like you post this every year... - 13 days ago

Always the voice of reason. As fans, we seem to lack the capacity to learn... or maybe its more fun after a loss for so we can go apeshit and go on a rampage. Maybe that is what being a fan is all about. A fanatic is not necessarily reasonable or subdued in their disappointment. But this happens every year, especially after a loss. Mid-season last year when the defense appeared like it was st

Had to eat them with ranch... - 16 days ago

It's like making tacos and finding out you only have American cheese... Wings are a tradition for certain games... usually televised games. Anyway, I have been a lot more disappointed with some wins. But I expected the Rams would lose this game... big. They would have done a lot better against a poor team and we wouldn't be talking about needing a new OL, a new RB and the loss of Robert W

First preseason game - 17 days ago

Will probably look a little better next week. This loss bothers me zero. Plus I knew it would be a bad night when my wings were delivered without blue cheese.

Dude is 50 years old... - 18 days ago

Damn. Just going to say, I can't do that... I too got chills listening Donald talk about winning the SB. Would I be off base to say that he is this generation's Deacon Jones? I mean a comparable Rams defensive player based on impact? I constantly am telling myself to be appreciative of what I am seeing. So easy to take it for granted.

I get them cheap from Buddy's Tickets - 20 days ago

At least that is what I was hoping someone would post. I am going to the Dec. 8th game against the Raiders... alone... I don't really want to sit on the Away side. I've checked all of the normal channels... tick pick, ticket master, vivid seats... etc. etc. etc. and they are relatively the same. You might save $15 or $20 somewhere. I guess that matters more if you are buying multiple tickets.

Whenever there is a crisis there is money to be made - 24 days ago

and then when the crisis is over... well the prices don't come down. But for McDonalds... our local McDonalds is paying kids as much as someone with a college degree makes. My niece just got a raise as a graphic designer that makes her pay equivalent to someone cooking French fries. There simply aren't enough employees. And its not like the product is better. Eating at McDonalds costs the sam

Personally I am going to miss his dancing - 24 days ago

I love when someone makes a play and then celebrates like an @#$%& until the next snap. So, my dislike for him probably is clouding my judgement. I did think he was a good player for the Rams. Not the automatic super bowl winning piece of the puzzle the media made him out to be... you know, the one the Rams bought their Super Bowl with... I think adjustments by the DC and the players gettin

Go get 'em bro - 27 days ago

I will be first in line to buy it.

and since 2000 music itself has been depressing - 27 days ago

I'm not sure who castrated music but it hasn't recovered. Seems like Pearl Jam remained unscathed... Meanwhile Nirvana, STP, Soundgarten and AIC all lost their front men to suicides or drugs. How can one genre have that much... depression. Punk was anger, Grunge pain, 2000 on completely gutless. I would listen to disco over today's music... and to be honest there is a lot of pre-2000 music being

I also knew that someone with a better brain than I have would remember. A few troubled souls on in that band.

It is crazy - 28 days ago

I am trying to find tickets to see the Rams that don't cost $250 for nosebleeds. I am on the fence on how I feel about it. I mean I am in favor of supply and demand but on the other hand it makes some things unattainable for those on a middle class income. I don't think there's anything to be done about it. I am an Alice In Chains fan... And they are all together but their lead singer who

For me, if it's someone I want to see... - 28 days ago

I will pony up the dough. Led Zeppelin tours and I'm not sure if I care what they sound like... For me Tool is worth paying a couple hundred bucks to see, although I don't think I have ever paid that much. As for Rod Stewart... IMO if he can get it he should. Musicians need to get paid. And how long can Stewart continue? Damn.

I think they are trying to get it close - 30 days ago

So the Sofi decor doesn't have to change per team. They should just combine the two teams. One would be varsity and the other junior varsity. The LA Ram Chargers... The more I think about it... One team would always get a good draft pick... which of course would be groomed for the first team. And then any low round/undrafted players who surprise would have a sort of practice team. But it w

That sounds awesome. Thanks! - 4 weeks ago

Its funny... I have literally known some of the people on this board for over 20 years. It would be great to meet some of the Herd. That said, my wife's boss is making things difficult. We should know by the end of the week.

You literally have "judge" in your name - 4 weeks ago

Byt I agree. You hear camp reports and see the kind of lack luster play... but I still expect him to be a solid starter. It seems time to throw in the towel.

One last question - 4 weeks ago

Will there be tickets available closer to game day or should I try to get one now? Thanks.

Re: I will be there! - 4 weeks ago

Heading out from DC... maybe Baltimore. I am prepared that there may be a little silver and black there. hahaha Hopefully more Ram fans but the Raiders have to have a strong fan base there.

Thanks! - 4 weeks ago

I might actually try to get a hotel closer to Sofi so I can uber. AndI will try to avoid 500's but my ticket to fly non-stop to LAX from Washington DC is about the same price as the cheaper seats.

I might get to the Dec. 8th game! - 4 weeks ago

My family and I are heading across the country to go to Disneyland. So that means I might get the opportunity to see the Rams at Sofi. However, I will be going alone. Any advice? We are staying in Anaheim so I won't really be too close to the stadium but I will have a rental car. Ticket master has single seats available. Is there a good section? Like stay on the "home" side, lol...

It's true and I feel the same - 5 weeks ago

For some reason I feel like McVay trusts him. And as a back up QB I think that is important. It looked like a Goff lead Fisher offense. The thing that Wolford has shown is some scrambling ability but he has also gotten hurt doing that. I just feel better knowing Perkins is overall more talented and has a higher upside. But I am looking at it from my couch. My guess is that McVay sees a lot mo

The good thing about Wolford - 5 weeks ago

is that he knows the offense. It ends there. He could be a mediocre back up and that is his ceiling. I'd still give him the nod over Perkins but Perkins is way more talented. And unlike Wolford his ceiling is quality NFL back top QB. I think it's a tougher decision than it seems. At no point do you get the feeling that Wolford can make a play or operate the offense if you needed a score. What

I want to be excited about Tutu - 5 weeks ago

And I was fine with the pick and I am rooting for him. But 150lbs? It didn't sound like a joke. It will take me a few years of being able to play consistently before I can be comfortable enough to feel like he can be counted on. The injury he got last year... It was like accidentally walking into an open locker door. I'm still not sure how he got injured. But for me, it's tough to think that h

Why is that name familiar? - 5 weeks ago

Could it be that it's the same last name as my favorite Ram's player Lawrence McCutcheon? I think so. Evidently not related. That TD catch and run was a big boy play. I hope he sticks with the team and develops because I would love to see that name on the back of a jersey again during a real game.

Re: Perkins' game - 5 weeks ago

I think he could be a good back up eventually. The game has to slow down for him. And that will need to be seen because his decision-making for the position is a little slow. But I think it would be hard for teams to game plan for Stafford and then have to defend a running QB. I wonder if someday he could actually have a few specialty plays in a game. Definitely talented.

I agree... - 6 weeks ago

Just more time discussing what happened and then getting it wrong. My guess is that will, as everything does, favor Brady. :laughing

I saw KWS at a "rock and roll" bar - 6 weeks ago

My girlfriend knew him and we were at the front of the stage. This is when Blue on Black came out. I don't remember anything about it. Being a guitarist myself, I think there was some animosity toward him... maybe not the right word... jealousy probably but that's not quite it either. I don't know if guitarists kind of downplay talent of other guitarists if they aren't their heroes. lol. He's an

I thought it was great - 6 weeks ago

All he did was mention old players and coaches that he knew and people he worked for. That's who he is. As authentic a speech as I have ever heard. It's not about him, it's about everyone else. That is what I have always taken from Vermeil personally in leadership. An excellent representation of that principle. It's the people you surround yourself with that lift you up. You are nothing without t
