Dismal Season

The other day, my friend made this remark, "You blame Linehan."

Well actually I don't. I lay the blame exactly where it belong at the feet of the owners and the front office. For thirty years, they have done this fan a great disservice. For thirty years they have failed to put some honest effort in providing us fans a team. What they have gave us, I would call a fracture and disjointed team. They provided us with one or two standout players with no supporting players. We have gotten players such as Eric Dickerson, Willie Anderson, Jerome Bettis, Kurt Warner, Issac Bruce, Terry Holt, Steve Jackson, and Marcial Fualk. I want to know what happen the Fearsome Foursome, and offensive line that block?

I must be fare to them. They did give us the 65 million dollar boy. That last remark maybe unfare to some appologts. But let us ask ourselves, what has Bulger done to deserve the 65 million dollars? Outside of his self promtions, such as "I don't care. I at least scored a touchdown," I can think of nothing else. The truth hurts doesn't it.

Oh lets us not forget about that nice new stadium that has been slowly becoming less pack. Oh how I long for the Columseim in LA when we had respected team, and this joke that our post Rosembloom leaders have give. Yes the good old days.

Starting Offense Fails to Score a touchdown

Bulger comes up empty again.

Though the Rams have lost the last two games, I still feel good about them. When Linehard took over from Martz, I didn't expect the team to make to the Super Bowl in one year. Let us not forget that alot of damage had been done to this team for the last couple of decades, it would take time to regroup. This seems to be happening. One of the happenings, They talk about not just starters but the backups. Never happened in the past. They seem to be building a team not only for now, but the future.

The rams loose to the Raiders

Bulger failed to score again. The Rams Defense commited seven penalties but did have some bright spots.

There were several bright spots for the Rams defense as the starters stopped an Oakland drive on their own one-yard-line. Linebacker Will Witherspoon came up with a fumble recovery in the endzone after Jordan was met at the
one-yard-line by a host of Rams defenders.

Bulger gates 65 mill

He better take the team to the Super Bowl.

Rutger's Leonard Comes to the Rams

Leonard comes to the Rams. I'm looking forward to see him and Jackson in the backfield. He has very good receiving abilites. This should help both the passing game and receiving games. It might even help the defense. The Rams do not have to score quickly as in the pass. Now, they can slow the tempo down by long drives. They use both the short passes and runs to keep the drives going, and go for the long one when need be. This should help the defense recover between drives while their opponants out on the field.

Rams Pickup a Linebacker

The Rams get Chris Draft from Charlotte.

The signing of Draft, 31, marks the second straight year the Rams have lured a
linebacker from the Carolina Panthers. Draft replaced Will Witherspoon at
weakside linebacker after Witherspoon signed with the Rams last March.

Chris Draft swayed away from Tampa Bay.

Just Wondering

A month or so ago, I saw an article saying that Martz wanted Marshal Faulk in Detriot. I have seen anyhting since, but I have been toying the idea. I remembered when the Rams traded Jerome Bettis, and they got several draft picks that helped get to the playoffs and the Super Bowl. What about if say, the Rams did trade Faulk to Detriot? I know this sounds treasonist, but I was just wondering.

Rams End the Season on a High Note

The Rams win their last game.

I think that this game speaks about the character of this team under Linehan. I remember the Martz years, and how this team gave up. They could have given up because this game had no meaning. Giants had won their game 14 hours before thus securing the last NFC wild card spot. The week before the Seahawks won the division. So, the Rams had very little reason to win this game, but they went out there played and won their game. This shows the character of this team.
