wvParticipantAnd this paved the way for Jay Zygmunt to prove Dick Vermeil was a bad coach by hiring him to coach the Rams.
I feel like Zygmunt was ok as Vice President. But then as senior executive grand imperial vice president things went off track.
Wiki
“…Zygmunt was hired by the Los Angeles Rams in 1982 as a general counsel.[1]
He was promoted to vice president in 1988,
senior vice president in 1991, and
executive vice president in 1996……In 1999, Zygmunt was given a game ball by coach Dick Vermeil. Vermeil said in an interview, “You know who’s got the lousiest job in this building? Jay Zygmunt…
…Zygmunt was promoted to President of Football Operations.[4] In 2006, he became their general manager, succeeding Charley Armey, while retaining his position of President of Football Operations.[5] Though the team compiled an 8–8 record that year, the Rams declined in the following seasons, winning just five of thirty-two games in the next two years.[6] He resigned following a 2–14 record in 2008.”
wvParticipantPropagandopolis has some websites in the usual places. I enjoy seeing all the various propaganda posters.
One of my favorites on this page is the ‘Mary in outer space’ one.
wvParticipantI only intended to watch about two minutes of this. But it intrigued me.
This translator of the Odyssey is inter esting. She is ‘well known for choosing the word ‘complicated’….“you are always wrestling with something that is fundamentally impossible”
wvParticipantToo bad he didn’t live long enough to film “The Funny Baby Lolita Iguana.”
Live long enough?
Well, lets not get into the whole “Rosenbloom didnt really hang himself in the ocean” thing again.
At any rate the leadership of Doctor of Philanthropy Georgia Frontiere (Miss St.Louis 1926) began. And the golden age of Dominic (husband 7), Shaw and Zygmunt dawned.

“in 2008, the Rams partnered with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital to host “Georgia’s Drive Fore the Kids”, a golf tournament to honor Frontiere and benefit the charity.[29]Sixth Street, between Convention Plaza and Washington, outside of the Edward Jones Dome, is now known as “Georgia’s Way” to memorialize Frontiere.[30]
Frontiere was awarded an honorary doctor of philanthropy from Pepperdine University”
wvParticipantWell, Sports Illustrated has weighed in, and ranked all 32 teams’ uniforms for 2026.
Guess where the Rams rank:
Damn.
They have the Bengals in the top five, so they are clearly unqualified to judge anything.w
vTop and Bottom RankingsNo.
1: Los Angeles Chargers (praised for their iconic powder blue look)
2: San Francisco 49ers (noted for their classic gold helmets and traditional style)
3: Dallas Cowboys
4: Baltimore Ravens
5: Cincinnati Bengals (highlighted for their modern stripe design)31: New York JetsNo.
32: Los Angeles Rams (ranked last despite recent offseason updates)wvParticipantThe original blue and white unis used navy blue, not royal blue. That’s why they look ‘off’. Rosenbloom liked the darker blue and white because the sharp contrast looked better on the black and white TV sets of the 1960s (which most people had) than the royal blue and yellow. In 73 they switched back to blue and yellow because color TVs became the norm.
Yeah, i forgot about that. Rosenbloom was ‘America’s Overalls King.’ The man knew uniforms.

=====================
Rosenbloom WIKI
…By 1959, Blue Ridge had grown to include almost a dozen shirt and overall companies and 7,000 employees, leading some to dub Rosenbloom “America’s Overalls King.”[4] In the financial interests of his family, Rosenbloom decided to sell the company to P & R, the price being $7 million in cash and more than $20 million in stock. At P & R, Rosenbloom served as a director.[2]…….Rosenbloom was one of the largest individual shareholders in Seven Arts Productions Limited, which backed the Broadway musical Funny Girl, and the films Lolita, What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?, and The Night of the Iguana.[2]
wvParticipant“..2026 Training Camp, presented by CommunityAmerica Credit Union, the official Credit Union of the Rams..
CommunityAmerica Credit Union has merged with UNIFY Financial Credit Union and is now the Official Credit Union of the Los Angeles Rams…Back Together Weekend, on August 1 and 2, presented by Toyota..
Legends Day presented by Edwards Lifesciences…
———————-What is the official toilet seat of the Los Angeles Rams? I dont want to be using the wrong one.
When did training camp become something that is ‘presented by’ a corporate entity? When did that happen? I need to know for my timeline of the End-of-All-Life-On-Earth (presented by Nabisco)

vwvParticipantAfter espn’s recent firings, their two big stars are now Pat McAfee and Stephen A Smith. Gag me.
McAfee is expected to get about 60 million dollars per year, btw.
I remember when espn first started, it was fun. Lots of witty folks. I liked Keith Olberman when he was paired with Dan Patrick.
Now its down to two idiot mega stars.
wvParticipantRams should’ve kept Chuck Knox and Chris Chandler over Rich Brooks and Chris Miller.
GO RAMS!!!
Ok, well now yer just inviting a Board War.
w
vwvParticipantThe black looks okay, it’s just that black feels wrong.
…
Thats because the black IS wrong.
Its ridiculous. Its not even a ‘scary’ kind of black uniform. Its a uniform that doesnt quite know what its doing.
w
vwvParticipantFearsome White…
Check out this Dick Enberg intro…
“color, sparkle and glamour”
Yeah, that was Rosenbloom.
Shoulda kept the blood-and-guts-blue-and-white, for half the games, and the color-sparkle-glamour for half the games.
w
vwvParticipantThe blue and white one is not exactly right, but…its close enough.
Well done.
Bout time.

vwvParticipant“dream team should not add Aaron Donald..”
wvParticipantKupp: McVay is Alchemy, McDonald is Effort.
wvParticipantWiki
“Prisencolinensinainciusol” has been described as varying music genres including rock and roll,[4] Europop, house music, disco, hip hop and funk.[5][6]…Celentano has claimed that with this song he invented rapping
…Andrew Khan, writing in The Guardian, later described the sound as reminiscent of Bob Dylan’s output from the 1980s.[11]
…Celentano’s intention was not to create a humorous novelty song but to explore communication barriers. The intent was to demonstrate how English sounds to people who do not understand the language:
“Ever since I started singing, I was very influenced by American music and everything Americans did. So at a certain point, because I like American slang—which, for a singer, is much easier to sing than Italian—I thought that I would write a song which would only have as its theme the inability to communicate. And to do this, I had to write a song where the lyrics didn’t mean anything.”[7]
Celentano also took inspiration from the Biblical account of the Tower of Babel.[7]….
wvParticipantYou people KNOW the football gods are not going to let us have Myles and AD.
You kNOW that. Did they let us have Kurt and Faulk? No. Faulk’s knee blew up and Kurt’s thumb blew out.
The gods will taunt us. Maybe…oh,…three games. I give it three games. So enjoy it while it lasts. Before Myles blows out his knee, and Aaron blows up his thumb.
We are Ram fans. We are not allowed to have a super team.

vwvParticipantA.Donald compilation, from Long’s podcast
wvParticipant“preseason PUP” list.
wvParticipantM.Garrett is a sign of ‘desperation.’ Seahawks 17-0.
wvParticipantBut like many others I assume that even without Donald, the combination of Garrett, Young, Turner, Fiske, and Ford (plus maybe Stewart) will be plenty good all on its own.
.Yeah, the Rams defense (barring injuries) has the potential to be as good as — and i cant believe I’m writing this — the Texans.
And that is just ridiculous.
So even if the Rams offense has injuries and goes off the rails, they could still be a dangerous team.
…i hate all this super-team, front-runner stuff. Especially since they havent won anything, unlike Seattle. Rams as favorites. What do we even do with that? I dont like it.
w
vwvParticipantUm…the espn-UK experts didnt like the ‘thuggery’ and ‘dark arts’ that Argentina displayed.
wvParticipantWe are in the post Milgram era.
wvParticipantPhilomena Cunk. (BBC)
wvParticipantPossibly, something.
wvParticipant“hot and smokey almost irreverent”
wvParticipantwvParticipantThe Netherlands did indeed ban many fireworks.
wvParticipantThe honest truth is that no one right now knows about either.
They could have a 3rd receiver among the trio of Whitington, Mumpfield, and Daniels.
They could have a decent LOT sub in Quessenberry or even Trost.So, time will tell whether or not we’ll see.
So you are saying we dunno. Crazy talk.
I’m not sure we dunno. I dunno about that.
I kinda think we know what Whitington and Mumpfield are.
w
vwvParticipantBucky Brooks predicting Seahawks to go 7-10.
Concerns about Seahawk offense. Very reliant on JSN. Loss of Kenneth Walker. New Play-caller from San Francisco. Now Seahawks are ‘the hunted.’
wvParticipantUnusual statement from a young Seahawk Lineman.
In the vid above. Around the 25 minute mark or so:
Grey Zabel: “Kobie Turner is like my kryptonite right now, I dunno what it is, but he’s just got my number, he just works me every single game…but as much as you wanna hate the rams, they are all really good dudes across the board, Kobie for instance, he’s out there and he just smiles, he plays the game for the love of the game…he got a little banged up and couldnt finish that NFC Championship game, it was sad, I told him how awesome he was after the game….”
Btw, Only Chris Long would ask: “What kind of tractor do you have?”
