I find it hard to hate the Cards unless they're playing the Rams. That is: I don't have anything against them OTHER than being a foe when the Rams play them. So yeah, that would be tolerable for me.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
I'm ok with Stafford for now, and probably 1 and maybe 2 more years. I'd rather see some time and effort in locating, drafting, another Herbert, Burrows, Allen... LOVE their energy and what I think is a 'driven' engine for winning at all costs. Very difficult to predict a college QB's success in the NFL BUT... that drive and energy IS visible. Go for it. - JamesJMby JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
God Forbid!!!!!!! Which other team would it bother you the least if they won? I word it that way because some won't 'like' any.... some perhaps a bit more open to another team... and maybe even some who truly would LIKE another team to win IF it isn't the Rams. I'm ok with the Raiders and Bengals.... that requires explanation... I detest the Raiders BUT... Carr is from my Alma Mater... Iby JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
I'm a screamer... at least I'm a screamer when I'm at home watching on TV. At games I keep it inside, for the most part. Once I did jump over the inside wall at the Coliseum, (in the 70's), and was escorted out by security but other than that I'm a beacon of good behavior... but again, not at home. I scream at everything... if they get 8yds I wanted 9... if they get 55yds I wanted 56, or morby JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
If memory serves that's the game where I got Carroll Rosenbloom's autograph. I collected autographs in those days, poorly. :laughing I'd get an autograph and then promptly misplace it, somehow lose it, within the week. By the end of the 70's my autograph collecting days came to an end. Except one: Probably the most prized Ram's memorabilia I ever owned was a hand signed autographed footbaby JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
But I think I would answer that I'd most like Rams thru SF then GB. That might sound like I'm asking for trouble... and I suppose it is... but... That, to me, would equate to full redemption.... and I can't imagine a more glorious playoff result heading into the SB. At this point I'm not much concerned, or care, about lucking into the 'easy way'... truth be known I'd rather it didn't hapby JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
And i'll continue to watch the episodes UNLESS I get distracted... like by some other series I'm more interested it, which isn't all that likely.by JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
I never have really accepted two very common statements made on this board regarding Stafford - 1 He is who he is and 2 When he's hot he's hot and when he's not he's not. At the same time it's no easy task arguing either of those things. #2. First... it makes no sense to me that, (and this is how I see it), that 'hot/cold' thing breaks down close to each specific drive rather than a 'game lby JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
is true then Phil has to be one of the most mentally corrupt individuals ever. I don't know that the 'arts' breeds any more mental instability than any other vocation... but it certainly seems so. It also seems more tolerated within their ranks. - JamesJMby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
medical explanation I've ever had the patience to read thru entirely. Thanks for posting that. Not sure which I enjoyed more about the article - the doctor's expertise or Cam's dedication to recovery starting, apparently, nearly immediately after he went down. That second point, Cam's immediate focus on recovery, I think an excellent, perhaps the best, lesson that the entire team can and shoby JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
Mason, (grandson), had to work Sunday at a local ski resort.... here he is with his former coach and also former Fresno St. Bulldog Efrain Guizar. He had a much, much, much better day than I did.by JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
maybe, and I'm not saying I think this is the case, they lost faith in the D play calling... and I think it obvious they were playing the wrong D for what SF ran in that 2nd half... but I don't think they just didn't care. - JamesJMby JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
It was not the pass vs run play call that upset me - it was the empty set.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
"a good interview"... in the sense that term is used by the media today that is. Not long ago I visited an old friend, he was my Dad's age. He was in a home and suffers from dementia. I knew what dementia was but had no experience with it, and so I read a little about it. I began my visit with him by mentioning an old story I had heard my friend tell, many times... both he and hby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
but it can be done. I do not believe GB is invincible in GB. Most likely to beat them... IF they play their very best... I think, in order, are TB, Dallas, and Arizona. TB has the unique gift of being under Brady's wing and being so I think they can travel to GB 100% UN-intimidated. They won't fear GB... which doesn't mean they'll beat them but I think it gives them a good chance. Dallasby JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
that's so spot on accurate I can't. That's precisely what McVay would have done.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
but you're right, Raiders are out playing them. BUT... that spot was horrible... and Chris is full of @$#@, until he was touched it was NOT his knees for the ball placement.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com

the year after the SB win.... it was a sea of Blue and Gold and Candlestick. I'd say 70/30.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
along with all the other historical jinx's.... this coming game has nothing to do with previous games, no matter what night it occurs. I suspect the Ram's actually do allow that kind of a gibberish to effect them... and shouldn't. Leave that BS to us fans, that's what we're here for. :laughingby JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
why there aren't more specials featuring the stars of yesteryear while we can still interview them. And not just movie and TV stars, same holds true for sports figures, and for me even scientists, authors, and on and on. Willie Mays is still with us.... ever see him interviewed? The man is living history for Pete's sake and yet almost forgotten. We have actors alive today that made silent fby JamesJM - Bucky's Pub
beat the Niners... as much as it grieves me to say that. I was thinking after that game that even had the Rams been ahead 48-0 at the half all it would have meant was that SF would have made the greatest comeback in NFL history adding more fuel to their dominance over the Rams.. - JamesJMby JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com

Niners are a better team than the Rams.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
And I AM trying to use that to find some kind of encouragement... BUT... There are 3pt losses and then there is what happened today, which IMHO was not much different than had they been blown out 45 zip.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
I'm probably missing a game somewhere but I can't recall a single game in the 70's where the Ram's D did what our D did today.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com

What I mean is that I'm not sure the Rams focus on any upcoming opponent.... they seem to me far more internalized. Nearly completely focused on themselves... to a 'fault', actually.by JamesJM - RamsFootballFans.com
