How can Bradford be popular when he is at best a part time starter?

Between Bradford and Suh assuming it was down to those two for the Rams, not drafting Suh was a huge mistake. This isn’t exactly 100% hindsight either as Bradford’s durability was always in question.

Oh well.

Both networks already have a part of the LA TV pie. TV won’t realign divisions or conferences as it never has in the past side it would be giving up too much control to an outside entity. In this case a dependent entity.

Yes, right now both Fox and CBS have equal access to LA. But that would not be true if two teams from the same conference were in LA. Fox broadcasts away games for the NFC and CBS broadcasts the away games for the AFC. If two AFC teams move to LA, CBS would get to broadcast the away games for both LA teams and most of the home games for both. That would give CBS a big advantage for the LA market. By moving one of the LA teams to the NFC it would give the two networks an equal share of the LA market.

Again the NFL won’t let a fundamental business decision be decided by an outside entity. If it is as valuable to the TV network as you claim then the AFC television rights will be more expensive than the NFC television rights. NFL retains control and gets more money.

Replays should exist to assist the officials in getting it right. Too many exclusions for replay now that alter games. Everything should be subject to replay. Getting it right is what it should be about.

why would the league and the city of STL want to spend public money to build a stadium in STL where NFL attendance has been in bottom 3 in total NFL attendance in each of the last 6 seasons?

why would the league stop an owner (Kroenke) that has his own land in LA to move from a market that has been bottom feeder in attendance and last in team value?

Don’t know why (I am not going to play that game).

But what will happen is
a) St. Louis will build the Riverfront stadium.
b) There will be $400M to $500M of public bonds used to pay for a portion of the stadium. Remember, these are bonds. They will be paid off from revenue earned by the stadium. No tax dollars will be used.
c) The league will uphold its bylaws and the Rams will play in that stadium for at least 25 years.

That would be awesome.

Why realignment at all?

If there are two teams in LA, and that is what it seems the NFL wants, then the FOX and CBS will each want a part of the TV pie. Thus, one team will need to be in the NFC and the other the AFC. Remember, it is TV that pays for the NFL. What they want is what will happen.

Both networks already have a part of the LA TV pie. TV won’t realign divisions or conferences as it never has in the past side it would be giving up too much control to an outside entity. In this case a dependent entity.

ignorant slut, slimy hagfish, it is exciting around here.

Should use the Marshall Faulk yardstick for the Rams.

BA should pay attention to his own team.

The true path is unknown to you?

Are you not of the body?

If the body is a slavish devotion to swirls masquerading as horns on a helmet then no. In fact I am sworn to cleanse the helmet born of the graffiti insult of an obviously bored Rams player wanting a career in fashion design. Down with the body.

You will be absorbed.

I am unmiscible.

Draft him as the QB.

Ok, I think it’s time for everyone to stop fuckin’ with the helmets. The Rams have already strayed too far off the one true path as it is.

What path is that?
