I actually live in Schenectady but I use the handle AlbaNY for a few reasons: I was at work (in Albany) when I first registered, Schenectady is so damn hard to spell, and I liked an old Albany promo where the 'NY' was capitalized so it could be distinguished from Albany, Georgia or Albany, Australia or any of the other 17 states and 7 countries that have an Albany. I was born in Schenectady aby AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
stlramz suggested something elsewhere in this thread and I think he is on to something. Perhaps they assume that you or I would go to Ticketmaster and look for Los Angeles Rams for tickets for the NFCCG while a 49er fan might look for San Francisco 49er tickets. It's a less than reliable method, but it could be what they're doing anyway.by AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
SoFi actually has 4 NFL-quality locker rooms. "SoFi Stadium boasts of separate Rams and Chargers home locker-rooms, two visiting NFL locker-rooms that can transform into four smaller locker-rooms for events like the Final Four (northside of stadium) and performer dressing areas on the venue’s southwest end.

This is from the same video I referenced before, this one at the 43 second mark. The ball was off target, to Stafford's right - but if he was expecting that snap he'd have caught it no problem.by AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
They were in shotgun formation using a silent count. Corbett told Allen to snap the ball with the hand signal the Rams were using all game long. And Allen did exactly what he was supposed to do. Clearly, Stafford wasn't ready for the snap but it is equally clear that Allen wasn't to blame. Something broke down in the communication between Stafford and Corbett. But Allen bears no responsibiby AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
QuoteGroundPounder What is more concerning is we have Allen, Corbett, Whit, Noteboom all as UFA on the OL with OBJ, Miller, and Michel going on the open market as well. All that with being $5,259,314 over the cap for 2022. Allen is FA, but maybe the Rams think Shelton is ready to step up to starting center? Corbett is also a FA, but maybe the Rams think they have depth there to take over (Sby AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
The Rams designated the blue and bone jerseys as their 'standard' jerseys and the white (modern throwbacks) as their alternate jersey. From this site: Los Angeles introduced its alternate top, which it termed the "modern throwback," From this site: Teams are only permitted to wear alternative jerseys once in playoff games (except the Super Bowl, where teams must wby AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
I'm not sure that bad snap is on Allen. Corbett signaled him to snap the ball and he snapped it. Granted, the ball didn't hit Stafford in the middle of the chest, but he would have caught it easily if he was expecting it. Something broke down in the communication between Stafford and Corbett. But it didn't look to me like Allen bears any of the blame for that snafu.by AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
My bet is the Rams won't wear these uniforms in the Super Bowl. The AFC team is the 'home' team for the Super Bowl and they get to pick their uniforms first. If the Chiefs pick their usual red home home jersey or if the Bengals pick either of their typical home jerseys (black or orange) then the Rams would be wearing their bone jerseys in the Super Bowl.by AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
It sounds like you had a great trip - as I knew you would. It's so cool when a fellow Herdsters goes to the game and then give us the inside scoop. I loved reading about your experiences - it let me enjoy the game from a whole new perspective.by AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
I just read both of your game posts and I have to dispute one thing right off the bat. This: " I do not post much, as I don't know what all I have to offer ..." Jeez, baraw, those were two excellent posts!! I agree with what a few others have already said in this thread: POST MORE OFTEN. In only a short period of time you will find that posting here is really no different than theby AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
Stafford was 6 for 7 yesterday on throws over 15 yards downfield. 195 yards on those 6 completions (a 32.5 yard average), 1 TD, no interceptions. That's a 158.3 passer rating ... which is the highest number possible.by AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com

I almost hate to question your post: you are the best in these parts for digging up awesome info and sharing it with the rest of us. But I noticed that you omitted this year's win over Brady (Week 3, Sept 26, 2021) so I did a quick google search of my own. ... and found this article: "Looking back at his NFL career that spans over 20 years, Tom Brady has faced the Rams, both in St.by AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com

OMG IT'S GAME DAY!!!!!! What better way to send Brady off to retirement than to give him another beat down in front of his home-town fans. The standard is the standard. Situational masters.

After the season ticketholders get a presale opportunity the remaining tickets go on sale to the public. The Rams are apparently going to sell tickets only to fans in the 'Greater LA area'. I don't know how they're going to do that, but it seems like they think they have a way. Beyond that the tickets for the NFCCG aren't going to be resellable. I also don't know how they're going to make thatby AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com

This is from the transcript of McVay's interview today (01/2122) as posted by Shaky: (On if Henderson, Rochell and Joseph-Day have a chance to be active this week) “No. None of those guys have a chance this week.” SJD, Rochell, and Henderson have indeed been designated for return from IR. But all that means at this point is that they can now practice with the team for 21 days. The Ramsby AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
Whit sounds like he'd play next year if he and the Rams can work things out. (What needs to be worked out is his cost. There are conflicting reports on what he's set to make next year but it's in the $15M range. In 2021 he made $4M ...) A Whitworth quote from this article: "... I still love playing this game and regardless of anything else, if it works out, hopefully I’ll have a chby AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
Just like when Whit went out of the game Monday night it will be ... Noteboom-Edwards-Allen-Corbett-Havenstein The Rams had Anchrum and Jackson inactive Monday night so I imagine one of them will be active Sunday - probably Jackson - along with Evans and Shelton, both of whom were active Monday. That will give them 8 OL active on gameday. Shelton was the extra OL after Whit came out, esby AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
SJD and Rochell (and Hendo, too) have only been designated for return from IR. What that means is they can now practice with the team for 21 days. The Rams can put any or all of the on the active roster at any time in the next 3 weeks ... but any of them who don't make it back to the 53 man roster within 21 days goes back on IR. As things stand none of them can play Sunday. But the Rams sby AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
Like you, I have seen these posts for years. But never once have I thought it had anything to do with gambling. The way I take it - and the way I think it is intended - is more aligned with a common synonym for fearless: adventurous or bold or daring. Kind of like how it is used in the phrase 'fearless leader', which clearly has nothing to do with gambling. I rarely reply because I seldby AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
Agreed. And the Rams seem to not wear the same combo two weeks in a row ... so I'd bet bone pants (although the blue pants are also an option).by AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
I check TIcketmaster, Stubhub, Vivid Seats, and TIckPick whenever I'm looking for tickets, and I hate to say 'always', but TickPick always has the lowest price. They don't add fees so the price you see is the price you pay. However, if you insist on using Ticketmaster you can click 'FIlters' and then check 'Show prices with fees' so you will at least know what you're dealing with up front.by AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com
They gave him 17 yards on the play but they shouldn't have. He started his slide at the 26, which by rule is where the ball should have been spotted. That would have been 15 yards, as instructed. The ref did place the ball on the 24, but if the 49ers had challenged the spot it would have gone back to the 26.by AlbaNY_Ram - RamsFootballFans.com

The stadium seats 70,000 people but capacity can be expanded by selling 30,000 tickets to people who then have to stand for that event. SRO tickets can be sold on the 200, 300, and 400 level where you will have an aluminum shelf to lean on or set you beer on directly behind the last row of seats.
