TSRFParticipantThnks, Joe.
Looking forward to Rams – Bucs. Was hoping for Saints – Pats as a warm up, but I’m in that one little chunck of CT that is going to be stuck with Giants- Falcants…
EVERYBODY in Boston is already talking about Week 4 Pats – Bucs. Wouldn’t it be funny if the Rams knock TB12 out and he can’t play in that game…
TSRFParticipantLet’s see how we do against the Colts, who Seattle just drubbed.
My feel about biggest threat in the division? Cardinals
TSRFParticipantThanks, Joe.
I appreciate you posting these. Sometimes, in a strange way, I almost look at them as battle maps…
TSRFParticipantWho are these people?
I don’t think any of them are Rams (except maybe that “AD” guy you allude to…).
TSRFParticipantThe Jets 7 – 10?
Come on, Jack, they’re THE JETS!
My guess: 3 – 14.
TSRFParticipantI’m still a bit broken up.
TSRFParticipantDamn! And I was planning on going to that game…
TSRFParticipantWell, if it is any consolation, New England is under a Tropical Storm Warning. Yes, we’re going to get a shitload of rain, but also winds up to 80 MPH. I am actually driving my family from Connecticut to Maine tomorrow. Supposedly, the worst of the storm won’t hit until Sunday.
August 19, 2021 at 7:24 pm in reply to: Nurses fired for not getting COVID-19 vaccine explain their rationale #131594TSRFParticipantIs it just me, or is that Wisconsin guy a dead ringer for Newman from Seinfeld?
Just saying, I’m sure he is not as funny. at all, at all…
TSRFParticipantHey ZN. Was it only boys?
Fairfield Prep was male only. Notre Dame Fairfield was co-ed. I really wanted to go to the public HS, Andrew Ward, but the two catholic schools were my only parentally allowed options.
Both my brothers went to Prep. Three of my four sisters went to ND.
I felt I had to choose Prep, and did, but I kind of treated it like jail for all 4 years (and I did break out quite a few times!).
I guess I am the person I am because of those experiences, but at the time I wished I was anywhere but there.
TSRFParticipantNeil’s got to watch Loki. Multiverse explained.
TSRFParticipantHey, Joe.
I’m not sure anymore…
I affiliate with the “none’s”.
12 years of Catholic school (French Canadian nuns from 1 to 8 and the Jesuits for 9 through 12) kind of beat religion out of me.
He is my oldest brother, first son for my dad. Maybe my dad fucked him up. Maybe his wife, who seems very religious is warping him.TSRFParticipantI get it.
Even with him an his wife not being vaccinated, I believe my extended family is over 90% vaccinated (yes, all of his 6 kids and their spouses are vaccinated).
Maybe I have anger management issues (OK; I know I do):
-Got sent home from work because I was in close contact with a non vaccinated positive.
-I know my brother is not vaccinated.
-Picked a fight with my brother on the sibling chat.
-Posted here to whine about it.
He drank the Jim Jones punch. I just need to accept that and move on. When you leave the Titanic in a row boat, there are only so many seats…
“And the wrong words make you listen in this criminal world.”
DB Fantastic VoyageTSRFParticipantThanks, guys.
I was a bit on edge yesterday. I d been sent home from work on Thursday because I was identified as a close contact with somebody who tested positive for COVID. In went and got a test on my way home, but didn’t get the negative result until this morning. I guess the vaccine really does work! I was in close contact, less than 3 feet apart without masks for hours two weeks ago. Our company policy was that vaccinated employees didn’t need masks indoors, but unvaccinated employees were supposed to continue to wear them. None of them did. Now, we’re back to everybody has to be masked. I think I am going to stay with the mask even when (if ever) the restriction is lifted.
As for my brother, I think he drank the Trump / Fox News cool aid. He considers himself very Roman Catholic, and sent a crazy assed post by some Jesuit / shit head that basically said the vaccine is a trojan horse made by Bill Gates and the Stone Masons that will cull 50% of the population. He sent this on a group text to all the siblings and implored us all to not get vaccinated. I had to call him out and say that I had to side with science, especially since I have asthma, and if I contracted full scale COVID, it would probably kill me.
The three approaches I am considering:
If you and your wife don’t get the vaccine, and if either of you get sick and die from COVID, you will be robbing your grandchildren of having you as grandparents in their lives.
Dad was a man of faith, but he was a man of science too. He made sure we all had our vaccinations while growing up. He would be appalled to know one of his children wouldn’t get vaccinated against a known killer virus.
Do and say nothing more. He knows where I stand, and I called him out on the sibling chat. Hope he does what is right, but recognize that I am not my brother’s keeper.
I’m leaning toward Option 3…
July 24, 2021 at 11:40 am in reply to: Cleveland’s baseball team changes name to the Guardians #131070TSRFParticipantJoe, I just don’t think “Rocks” would have been good.
Just thinking of the expression, “Dumb as a rock”.
Also, “rock” rhymes with “cock”.
TSRFParticipantGood for the NFL.
Do we know who on the Rams are vaccinated and who are not? I’m sure the league knows… Based on a comment I heard on the radio, I don’t think Ramsey is vaccinated (a DJ talking, but it sounded like he said something supporting Hopkin’s since deleted tweet).
TSRFParticipantNo love for Roman Gabriel? How about Nolen Cromwell? Yes, Warner was the QB when we won a Super Bowl, but I think Jim Everett had a more solid Rams career (other than the phantom sack, that is…).
July 20, 2021 at 4:54 pm in reply to: Henderson set to EXPLODE following Cam Akers injury – Jake Ellenbogen #131002TSRFParticipantI hope not. If he explodes, combusts, or otherwise disintegrates, we are REALLY going to need another RB…
TSRFParticipantJimmyTroutBoy! Apparently, reports of your death WERE grossly exaugurated…
Glad (very glad) you’re with us. I just returned from my very first trip to Illinois where my daughter is now living. Could have jumped on a highway that would take me to St. Louis, but I didn’t. All my years or Rams fandom, the only places I physically saw them play was New Jersey (vs the Giants twice) and Philly.
Never in St Louis or LA, even though I have been a fan since 1979.
Catch a few more if you can, my friend.
Matt
TSRFParticipantHappy Juneteenth, Jack. A day late but… happy Father’s Day too.
TSRFParticipantThanks for that, Jack.
First vid I ever watched of Professor Chomsky. I know the have been posted here a lot, but I’m just now getting over my fear of clicking on a link and having my computer turn into split pea soup…
My wife and I are flying from Newark, NJ to San Fran, CA tomorrow to visit our son who has been working at Tesla in Palo Alto since January. He is wrapping up a 6 month Co-op work study. He is 21 and this is the longest he has been away without seeing me, my wife or his sister. We’re really, really looking forward to the trip.
TSRFParticipantNo Devo. Happy for Todd. Happy for Tina.

TSRFParticipantHey, Joe. Get the booster before the World Series. Fuck the Dodgers. I am a Yankee fan; I’ve got some bad feelings about this year. The funny thing is, I root for most of the NY teams (I live about 60 miles from Time’s Square) except for the Giants and the Jets. Actually, I do root for the Giants, especially when they are plying against the Patriots(!). The Knicks have overperformed, the Rangers, not so much. Can’t wait for Football.
TSRFParticipantMy favorite of his “weird” movies is “The Grand Budapest Hotel” Definitely a bad guy in this one…
May 1, 2021 at 7:07 pm in reply to: how do you “grade” this draft? or just…what do you make of this draft #129473TSRFParticipantLet’s see who they pick up now.
May 1, 2021 at 7:06 pm in reply to: how do you “grade” this draft? or just…what do you make of this draft #129472TSRFParticipantJack, although it looks like a head scratcher to us, we really won’t be able to grade this for three or four years.
If you asked me what I thought the day after we drafted Aaron Donald, I think I would have said he was an under-sized DL who will quickly be out of the league…
Just saying.
TSRFParticipantGadget WR?
I’m sure they could have traded out and gotten him in the 5th?
TSRFParticipantHoly Fuck!
What the heck is in that water at the University of York?
If that beast was in New York, I think it would be getting comfortable with some Duck Sauce…
TSRFParticipantI think we dodged a bullet here. Rogers may be “better” than Stafford, but he is such a douche. I wouldn’t be happy if the Rams had gotten Rogers this off season. Too bad he won’t end up imploding SF…
TSRFParticipantSo. You saw my Satan and raised me a Yahweh…
I fold. The best I had was the stupid Boston accent, but that doesn’t compare to earthquakes. -
