QuoteMamaRAMa Are you talking about the label on the left side of the chest that says "Los Angeles Rams"? or something else? Yes, the label (I guess that might be a better word for it). It's literally like they knew people weren't going to recognize the team (kinda like the Seahags when they changed their uniform concept).by ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com
I mean...did they not think that fans would associate the colors with the team? I mean...I don't like the jerseys (home or away), but that name tag is just plain odd.by ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com

No doubt. But I think that's the whole idea of putting everyone in the "bubble." My assumption is that the players/coaches/hotel staff, et al would be routinely tested prior to entering the quarantined hotels. Anyone testing positive would not be admitted until they test negative. Yes, I know that's not foolproof, but it'd be the absolute best anyone could do, right?

Vegas (in particular MGM) has been pitching these types of proposals to the NBA and WNBA as well. Their primary selling point is that they have the capacity to quarantine players/coaches/officials/staff/families within their resort network.

QuoteClassicalwit I just can't see how they will manage this. They are going to have to test players before every single game. What happens if someone tests positive.

He took the day off. This game was the final regular season game for Alabama. Lewis went on to skip the bowl game in January in order to prepare for the NFL draft (he went to the Senior Bowl). So, if it looked as though he wasn't hustling in this game...it was because he wasn't (likely in an effort to avoid injury). FWIW...I also checked out Lewis' highlights against Arkansas mid-seasonby ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com
OK...so I saw the other thread highlighting his game against LSU (clearly the best team Alabama played all year) and came away...unimpressed.

I'd actually proposed trying to trade for Ross prior to the draft (for a 2021 4th/5th round pick). I would've then selected Pittman with one of my 2nd round picks to add a different dimension to our WR corps. Ross would've been a 1-year rental as I wouldn't have resigned him long-term. I def think that McVay would've found a way to use the type of speed Ross has.by ramBRO - RamsFootballFans.com

I like Pittman a lot and think that he'd be a HUGE red zone/jump ball weapon for us.
