RamsMaineiacKeymaster
Much better than that January 20, 1980 birthday gift. 🙂
RamsMaineiacKeymasterWhat a coincidence… I was at that game too. Only I wasn’t 14 years old when I went. 🙂
May 24, 2018 at 2:08 pm in reply to: Teams Will be Fined if Players Kneel During National Anthem #86548RamsMaineiacKeymasterAny words from Kroenke on this yet. He obviously voted for it.
I am at a point where I may be done with watching the games at all. I forget where I read it, but someone wrote that it used you be the American ideal to stand up to authoritarianism, and now we seem to allow for it and, in many cases, embrace it. All I can say is if this was my local restaurant behaving like this, I would stop going to my local restaurant. How is providing support to the NFL any different.
October 3, 2017 at 12:07 pm in reply to: McVay's offensive turnaround of the Rams might be unprecedented #75422RamsMaineiacKeymasterDifferent angle, but the year to year reminds me a bit of Vermeil 1998 vs Vermeil 1999. From 285 to 526 points. Same coach, but nearly as significant a turnaround.
RamsMaineiacKeymasterThanks. All I want for my birthday is more wins. 🙂
RamsMaineiacKeymasterI am a little late to this thread, but yes I think they can.
RamsMaineiacKeymasterI just updated the bbpress plugin… did it fix the issue you were trying to address here?

Good job.
“Test”
RamsMaineiacKeymasterRamsMaineiacKeymasterThe Rams are presently at $3,669,000 for their QBs (Foles, Keenum & Davis), which is fourth lowest in the league. At $43,620,156 for the total offense, no team in the league is currently spending less for their offense. By contrast, we are paying almost as much as for the entire offense as we are for just the defensive line ($43,479,272).
I am not a big fan of bargain shopping on QBs. It would seem to be an important position to invest in so I would support another QB in the mix, just in case Foles winds up being a one year investment.
RamsMaineiacKeymasterAccording to http://overthecap.com/calculator/st-louis-rams , if you cut Long and Wells and trade Bradford, we wind up with $25,984,097 in 2015, $70,115,005 in 2016 and $108,294,157 in 2017 for available cap.
So after spending about $1,542,000 on Foles and setting aside a few million on the draft, who we buying with the remaining $21 million plus on? Better not be saved for stadium cushions in LA. I am hoping they get busy (and productive) in either new signings or get busy with contract restructuring/extensions (FA16: Brockers, Sims, Barron, Zuerlein — FA17: Chris Long).

RamsMaineiacKeymasterThanks guys.
Had a great day and look forward to the new year. From a Rams perspective there is no where to go but up right? right?
All I want for my birthday is a Rams post season appearance in 2015/16. It has been far too long at 10 years running now — the fourth longest active drought behind the Browns (12), Raiders (12) and the Bills (15).
RamsMaineiacKeymasterPick em for Sunday’s games week 16 available.
Saturday games? who schedules Saturday games? 😉
Sorry about that. Worst pick em ever! That’s what I am going for.

RamsMaineiacKeymasterTechnically, couldn’t the Rams still finish ahead of the 49ers and thus alter their 2 games determined by place? (Washington, Tampa Bay would flip to Giants & Falcons likely)
RamsMaineiacKeymasterAll the remaining games for this wee are available for picking.
November 23, 2014 at 12:16 pm in reply to: pickem entry forms available for weeks 12, 13 and 14 #12374RamsMaineiacKeymasterI had setup the entry forms do the next several weeks are available in advance at the Rams Huddle Pickem page.
I do not have a utility to add other peoples scores, but may be able to hack it JoeMad since you did send them in advance.
I agree on the backwards thing Dak… darn plugin was built for Soccer (e.g. the other football) and those darn Europeans do everything backwards. 😉

RamsMaineiacKeymasterAs a note… I realized it was Thursday, or more accurately Football Thursday, about a quarter into tonights game, so it is not on the pick sheet for this week. Again, sorry.
September 21, 2014 at 11:00 am in reply to: setting up the Dallas game – vids & articles with Wagoner, Prisco/Kirwan, etc. #8062RamsMaineiacKeymasterWe just need a few of these…
RamsMaineiacKeymasterIn looking at the last 30 Years of Rams…
- Better than Spagnuolo, Linehan & Knox Round 2.
- On par to slightly better than Brooks.
- Not at all as good as Martz, Robinson or Vermeil.
The division has returned to the difficulty level of the past (Linehan and Spags blew the opportunity to capitalize on a weak division), but the biggest concern to me is there has been no growth in output. You could point to improvements in play last year over his first season, but the outcome was exactly the same. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if we were 6-7 wins this year and I am not sure if I will ever see Fischer coach a 10+ win Rams squad.
So all that said 6.28318530718, or 2x pi.
RamsMaineiacKeymasterThe login button at the top of the page has never toggled after you login.
Tried to figure out how to do it on this software a few times to no avail.
I did remove the mini icon the topic list and the forum list a few weeks ago, but that was a design decision not a bandwidth decision.
RamsMaineiacKeymasterFinal results for Week 2 are in and PA Ram fended off an early run by Zooey to hold on to his two point lead for the season.
Full Results can be seen here on the HUDDLE PICK’EM page.
The Week 3 Entry form is available. First game is Thursday Night.
RamsMaineiacKeymasterI just want to comment that Zooey seems to have made a late run but certainly the best man won.
I think we can all agree with that.
Signed,
PA Ram (a humble, gracious winner)
I just wanted to comment, you were the only “Rams fan” to pick the Vikings. Just sayin’.
RamsMaineiacKeymasterWhere is the link for week 2?
See this post
Good luck.

RamsMaineiacKeymasterBTW… because I didn’t know the answer…
Most consecutive seasons without a winning record, 20 seasons
New Orleans Saints: 1967-1986
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_National_Football_League_records_(team)#LossesRamsMaineiacKeymasterOh I agree there are reasons, just not reasons I am looking forward to seeing week in and week out.
After today’s performance, I am fairly convinced we will be experiencing the 12th consecutive season where the team does not post a winning record. That will be three seasons longer than the previous streak at 9 seasons and has to be right up their among all time streaks
It defies statistical randomness and is only more frustrating when the baseball team you support (Mets) just wrapped up their sixth straight losing season, one season short of their record streak of seven seasons.
RamsMaineiac needs some wins. 🙂
RamsMaineiacKeymasterWhat does your head or gut or both tell you?
My gut tells me to throw up. My head tells me throw up into a toilet. My wallet tells me, this may just be another $100+ per win season with the Sunday Ticket. 🙂
Bring on the soon to be 0-1 Buccaneers.

Hopefully not a chess match like me playing chess against Magnus Carlsen, unless of course I am representing the Vikings and the Norwegian Grandmaster is representing the Rams, despite his nordic heritage.
