ParticipantJosaiah Stewart: “..I’m just happy to be a fucking Ram..”
Well said.
He plays with kindof a wild-abandon. There’s a little Isiah Robertson in Josaiah.

ParticipantAnd so. He will either be improved through coaching/culture. Or, this will be a case of “counting on coaching/culture” hubris.
…
Yup. First thing that crossed my mind was this is a Martz-Trungian pick.
Who knows, though.

ParticipantLol, Zierlein’s write-up is about the worst write-up of any premium pick made in the Snead era.

ParticipantNow the Rams are armed with 2 first rounders in 2026 which will be an attractive package to a team that doesn’t need to draft a QB. The Bears or the Commodores or whoever.
I dunno, the Commodores havent had a good QB since Lionel Richie in the 70’s.
At any rate what i hate about the whole entire media is they never talk about Sha-door Sanders.

ParticipantInteresting trade. I dunno what to make of it. I mean ‘potentially’ its awesome. The Falcons are one of those teams that could finish first or last. Who knows what they have in Pennix.

ParticipantCasagranda is asked why the labor movement didnt win the fight to keep all the new deal stuff going. Why the shift to the Right in the US?
(starts at 48 min)

ParticipantI heard historian Roy Casagranda (who i listen to a lot) say this:
“In 1973, the top 1 percent had 8 percent of the wealth, today the top 1 percent makes 40 percent of the wealth…and then the next 15 percent make another 40, so the top 16 percent of amerika make 80 percent of the wealth…”w

ParticipantPuka…saying things about Purdy. For some reason.

ParticipantThe ‘over/under’ on the Rams, i see, is 9.5 wins.
Home games: Texans, colts, saints, bucs, LIONS.
Away games: falcons, panthers, jags, titans, ravens, Eagles.Plus, division games, obviously.
Nice to see they finally get the lions, at home.

ParticipantJoshua Citarella is an interesting guy. I’ve watched several of his interview-podcasts recently. He’s an artist and a socialist and he writes a lot about…I dunno how to describe it…kinda about young people online who have lost faith in the political system.
Anyway, here he talks about one of his little books about the memes online leftists have created after the first trump term.
wv
ParticipantThe rams have a 29 year-old female director of scouting strategy?
Cool.

ParticipantRecommend me some good leftist/communist podcasts and YouTube shows with an emphasis on war and foreign policy. Bonus points if it's not your own. Triple bonus points if you can recommend something without arguing against other people's recommendations in the comments.

ParticipantIf you listen to the details its not exactly ‘deextincting’ the dire wolf. It kinda sounds like the played around with some genes and ‘kinda’ created a dire wolf.

ParticipantDire wolves un-extincted.

Participanti was conflicted about posting this. but hey. i’m in too deep as it is. several more feet won’t matter much.
Well, I’m glad you posted it.
…I’m just wondering what the world would be like, if we dismantled capitalism,
and we stopped keeping score in sports. 🙂w

ParticipantIt would be nice if my brain could dis-associate the team i follow,
from the billionaires, and capitalist crimes of the corporate world.w

Participant111 wins, 100 losses. Thats in the Jeff Fisher zone, isn’t it? 🙂

ParticipantRams need a QB for the future. I assume they arent going to get a chance to pick Tyler Shough, but I like his potential. He probly wont drop further than mid-2nd round or so, though.
Would be fun to see what Mcvay would do with the great running qb, Jalen Milroe. I think he runs a 4.3 or somethin like that. Lamar Jackson type.

Participant“I think secretly they have faith in Jimmy Garoppolo,” a third exec said. “You don’t mess around with your starting quarterback unless you are confident in the other guy.”
=========Um….no.

ParticipantVermeil though did build a team from nuthin. So I don’t know who I put at #1/#2.
Martz was a figurehead; I’ve always said it.
w
vwv
ParticipantWe’ve probably had this conversation, but McVay is my #1 all-time head coach.
Vermeil #2, although his short tenure could drop him in some people’s books, I think.
Knox I and Robinson, tied for 3rd.
George Allen may get Honorable Mention, but I was just a damn kid back then.McVay has an advantage, I’d say, because of Snead and Kronke.
I think DV had it a little tougher.Having said that, I’d say DV built the best Ram team in the modern era. The Faulk trade was just ridiculous.
w
vwv
ParticipantOne of the things McVay has had to deal with more than any coach i can remember, is, the coach-poaching. Man, he has had to replace half his coaches every damn year.
And that says a lot about what the NFL thinks of McVay.

ParticipantWhat were the defensive rankings in AD’s last year, compared to the young DLine last year?
Run as well as pass stats, etc. Just curious.w
vMarch 17, 2025 at 8:08 pm in reply to: 1st FA wave over, assessments + 2nd wave of signings & extensions #155572wv
ParticipantI dunno what they need, but I’m ALWAYS worried about the OLine. Havenstein is old. He’s got to break down soon. They jettisoned J.Jackson the Guard. I kinda sorta suspect they dont have ‘quite’ the roster to march through a Super Bowl run next season. I suspect they will be a player or two short.
Unless they pull off some sort of Von Miller / OBJ type deal during the season.
