I wouldn’t blame the D. That was a winning effort in most games. They played lights out for 3 and a half quarters while the O played well for one drive.

1. It the history of teams moving, only one had a winning record the year after a move. Say what you will, but, moving apparently subtracts from a team being ready. That’s the history.

They didn’t have winning records after the move because they were not good teams in the first place. If the move negatively affected teams they should have worse records the following year right? But that’s not really how it breaks down. There is no significant drop in record other than the 84 colts. They were just a bad team and didn’t have a winning season until 1987.

81 raiders were 7-9 and then went 8-1
83 colts were 7-9 and then were 4-12
87 cards were 7-8 and then were 7-9
94 raiders were 9-7 and then went 8-8
94 rams were 4-12 and then went 7-9
96 browns deactivated ——
96 oilers were 8-8 and then went 8-8

Will it highlight the lies told to St. Louis by StanK and the NFL?

If they do they should make sure to highlight some of the lies told 20 years ago as well.

And then there is a guy like Tony Romo who wasn’t drafted at all.

I think so WV. I really do. I think the Rams have an elite Defense that can carry them pretty far this year. If the Offense clicks the Rams are going to be a scary team to face for everyone.

My dad was watching the Rams one night when I was about 4 years old. I remember walking in and watching it but I had no clue what was going on. I thought all the guys on the field were purposely laying down so that the guy with the ball could run across there body’s and not get dirty. Cause I knew I would always get in trouble for getting grass stains on my nice clothes too so it made sense in my little head.

But the more I sat there and watched the more interesting it was to me. Might even say I was mesmerized. My dad started naming players off and told me about the fearsome foursome. I remember thinking what a cool name the fearsome foursome was and that I wanted my friends and I to start a club named that.

The clincher for me though was when I saw the horns. I never wavered from being a Rams fan from that day I saw those horns. Actually I might have second guessed my commitment when the Rams went to St.Louis but my boycott lasted about a minute into game one.

Noncontact anterior cruciate ligament injuries: risk factors and prevention strategies.

J Am Acad Orthop Surg. 2000 May-Jun;8(3):141-50.

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10874221

Abstract

An estimated 80,000 anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears occur annually in the United States. The highest incidence is in individuals 15 to 25 years old who participate in pivoting sports. With an estimated cost for these injuries of almost a billion dollars per year, the ability to identify risk factors and develop prevention strategies has widespread health and fiscal importance. Seventy percent of ACL injuries occur in noncontact situations. The risk factors for non-contact ACL injuries fall into four distinct categories: environmental, anatomic, hormonal, and biomechanical. Early data on existing neuromuscular training programs suggest that enhancing body control may decrease ACL injuries in women. Further investigation is needed prior to instituting prevention programs related to the other risk factors.

Doesn’t that cost seem way off at $12,500,000.000 per injury? Or just an example of how ridiculous the cost of healthcare is?

Did ZN ever bother to mention to any of you when you were asking where the buzz was that he had been calling the owner a dick and accusing him of things?

I’ve read around and publicly he lets you guys think he had no clue. When he actually knew why the buzz was closed the entire time and he led you to believe he didn’t.

Bob built you a site and then gave it to you for free so you could have a place for your community. What did ZN do for you? What has he built for you? Not what has he gotten someone else to do for you but what has he himself done for you ever? You wouldn’t have a community at all if it wasn’t for people like Bob or RM.

You guys are wanderers because why? Because of the things you say and the way you act? I don’t think so. You move to a new forum every so many years because of one guys selfish and repeated actions not yours. Why are you guys attached at the hip? You don’t have to be. ZN would like you to think you have enemies bashing you on other boards but that’s a lie. There is no board war. There is no us against you. In fact it’s the complete opposite. Your names are mentioned in the context of wishing you would wake up and join our community. Get in touch with Boffo and ask him what he thinks. He found out who the real problem was. He’s a fine member of the ROD and gets along with all of us.

You should give other boards and other posting communities a chance instead of chaining yourself to ZN. You might find as Boffo did that sometimes the grass really is greener someplace else.
