“I can’t wait to get to St. Louis.” — Sam Bradford on ESPN
With the first pick of the NFL amateur draft, the Rams took the quarterback from Oklahoma Sam Bradford. This is the new face of the Rams franchise.
“You have no idea how excited I am just to have the opportunity to come to St. Louis and play my NFL career there,” Bradford said in a conference call. “It’s just a blessing and I can’t wait to get there and get to work.”

In a move that can be describe no other way than “utter badassery” current minority owner of the Rams and owner of the Denver Nuggets, Colorado Avalanche and some “Futbol” team you don’t care about, decided at the last possible second that “Yup, totally buying the Rams too.”
“We are pleased to announce that we have exercised our right to purchase the remaining interest in the St. Louis Rams football team under the terms of our Partnership Agreement,” Kroenke said in a statement. “We have enjoyed our involvement in the National Football League since our original expansion efforts beginning in 1993 and our subsequent 15-year partnership with the Rams.

The other day while driving though the city, dodging the commercials on the radio we caught a tidbit on 101 ESPN about the Rams. According to Brian Stull, the Rams coach Steve Spangnolo has created the new 2010-2011 season team motto! No one knows what it is yet, and “Stully” can’t wait to find out if it’s better than last year’s: “53 as 1”
If this is the news Stully is waiting for this Rams offseason, we don’t have a lot of faith in the new season. Its pretty clear to us that Coach Spags should be spending his time, well coaching! Creating little gimmicky saying that really don’t mean shit is more our line of work, and if “53 as 1” is all Coach could think of last year, its clear this should be someone else’s job. So we’re chipping in a helping Spags with a few suggestions of our own.

The Rams suck. You know it. We know it. The Rams themselves? Eh. Not so much.
Marshall Faulk knows it though. Faulk expressed his feelings in the Sporting News:
“[The Rams have] earned the No. 32 spot (the last spot in the league). It’s well-deserved. The Rams are more worried about firing their trainer and equipment manager than they are worried about the coaches responsible for the play on the field. That says a lot. When the first offseason move you make is to fire your trainer? Perfect.”

We’ve given Kurt Warner a hard time in the past and we still don’t fully understand the people that are so wrapped up in Warner-love that they seemingly forget about just how bad he was at the end of his Rams’ career. However, Kurt Warner is seemingly a great guy that has had a great career (though not hall of fame worthy) and made the rarely seen choice to end it on top. Sure he got rocked repeatedly and got whooped by the Saints, but Warner was a solid quarterback this year on a good team.
Here’s the ESPN story.
We’ll talk about this on Monday.
TMZ is reporting that there has been a claim filed in Las Vegas against the Rams All-Pro running back stating that during a 2009 argument…
“Steven became enraged and pushed me to the ground, repeatedly.”
“forcibly grabbed my arm and flung me against the door. I was crying and trying to protect my stomach from the blows, as I was 9 mos pregnant.”

I don’t care if you don’t like football. If you missed Kurt Warner getting rocked on Saturday in his playoff loss to the Saints, then you missed one of the year’s biggest hits.
Let’s see…do I have video of this…oh! I sure do. Bam:
After being awaken from that blow Warner he apparently thought he was a spy for the Saints in the third quarter and then after being taken out in the fourth he briefly thought he was Ming Li, a Vietimese prostitute. It sounds weird, but I heard he really helped the team lift…ahem…their spirits after the tough loss.
[Read More]We already talked about this, but we found the video and just had to share.
Turns out after this incident occured the Rams said it was all on purpose! They claim the two fans signed up for something called the “Rams Quaterback Experience” which entails you getting badly hurt while an actual Rams offensive lineman watches.
