    from WARNER
    BY CALVIN (Aug 30)

    http://www.geocities.ws/ramsezine/articles/warners_flaws_830.htm

    I heaped scorn on the Banks fanatics the last 2 and half year years. The roles are reversed—this year I will be defending the QB. I am betting that defending Warner is going to be a lot easier than defending Banks. No matter how well he does I am sure I will be defending him from the STL press as Clayborn and his ilk don’t get along with Warner, as they are so Div 1 that for them the draft is the only socially approved way to make it into the NFL. Snobby. There is already bad blood.

    Clayborn ran his mouth off about “Euroboy” and how he would be back busting sod and storming barns for the Barnbuilders before the end of camp last year and how he “played at a no name farmers only college” (a slap at Warner’s modest roots).

    I would i bet my neck on Warner.

    As to my bet as I type my dear old ma is standing in line at the sports bar at Sam’s town in Las Vegas (she lives across the street now) clutching a fistful of my cash to make three bets as I just got off the phone with her.

    my bets are:

    bet one the Rams make the playoffs
    bet Two The Rams win the NFC
    bet three the Rams win the Supper bowl.

    by tomorrow I will put up the latest Rams post-Green odds for the Rams chances from bookies world.

    It seems the bookies don’t share my faith in Warner and the bet for the Rams to make the playoffs is now a good longshot payoff.

    This post had to have been made after Green was injured and before the season started.

    What a great call by this poster.

    I was a little crushed when Green went down, he was having a fantastic pre-season and that team was loaded….then Warner exploded on the scene…fun time for a Rams fan.

    Yes. It was made before the last pre-season game.

    The poster, Calvin, had followed Warner in the Euro league. He was a big advocate.

    I was a lot crushed when Green went down.

    The upside to being a Rams fan is heartbreak.

    Sprinkles are for winners.
