The last time the Rams entered MetLife stadium (2017) Robert Woods took a 3rd down and 33 the distance for a 52 yard touchdown! Woods became a fan favorite early in his Rams career because of plays like these. I was lucky enough to witness this miraculous play live! pic.twitter.com/vSh9Dcqnsx

Long played the slot, Ramsey bumped outside full time after Williams left. Rams don’t want to be stuck in “QB avoid” situation w Ramsey affecting so many plays so exploring rotations. Personally would be interested in Ramsey/Burgess Star rotation&seeing what Long can do as slot

By “Star” I do not mean solely slot player, I mean moving DB who at times is featured in the slot. But I think you also get added flexibility if you can see Long grow in some slot opportunities.

Robert Rochell, who played at Central Arkansas and was a fourth-round pick this spring, came off scout team with zero live reps to prep against Seattle on a short week with only one functioning hand. Made some mistakes, but also a big EZ PBU.

Sean McVay: Darious Williams could likely go on short-term injured reserve in coming days due to the fickle nature of ankle sprains but reiterates it’s not season-ending. Says Williams won’t be available this week against NYG.

Short term IR is three games, as a reminder, before activation window opens. McVay indicated other pieces are falling into place before team makes that call.

That’s very cool. Post stories. Let us know how the experience goes.

Stafford Time‼️@alfsbones
The Rams are:
•Last in plays per drive
•22nd in RZ TD %
•22nd in rushing
All that has to change

Axel Kopun@FV_Mylia_Lynn
If McVay doesn’t get back to his bread & butter this team won’t make the SB. Stafford is damn good but he’s not elite. This team is basically averaging the same ppg & ypg as last season thru 5 games – against worse competition. I think that’s more on McVay than Stafford.

Tutu Atwell with arguably the worst kick return attempt of all time

Richard Ramsey@Richard95549251
Trung Candidate beat him. He took the opening kickoff to the 2 yard line to open a season once for the Rams. Don’t forget Mike Thomas fumbling the opening KO in Fisher’s last game. Also a doozie…

I honestly worry about McV’s ability to present an even keel and have his team mirror that kind of consistent controlled urgency.

His teams are too amped up sometimes, and too flat sometimes (particularly after big wins).

I honestly wonder if he gets that a team mirrors its coaches moods to an extent.

Couldn't confirm without the film but the Rams really kept calling the same play over and over again last night and SEA could not stop it. I don't recall ever seeing a pass play called this many times in a NFL game. pic.twitter.com/W2GRNZtK3H

Hacked Oath Keepers membership roster reveals NYPD and GOP officials

https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2021/9/30/2055306/-Police-officers-and-Republican-officials-found-to-be-members-of-vile-domestic-terrorist-group?fbclid=IwAR17Ku3wmqayj5bs7KZtRDhASHgpcHHSdf3juci5JHJqVBgZ9eYaPhYNjlA

In August, right-wing racist fascism cosplay group the Oath Keepers were highlighted on CBS’s 60 Minutes. During an interview, Arizona Oath Keeper leader Jim Arroyo boasted, “Our guys are very experienced. We have active-duty law enforcement in our organization that are helping to train us. We can blend in with our law enforcement and in fact, in a lot of cases, our training is much more advanced because of our military backgrounds.” Oath Keeper founder Stewart Rhodes has also boasted a large swath of current and retired law enforcement in the group’s ranks. The fact that at least 31 law enforcement officers across 12 states were being investigated for their part in the attempted coup d’etat at the Capitol building on Jan. 6, 2021, should have been a red flag for even the most naive among us.

On Thursday, Gothamist and WNYC reported on a joint investigation the two news outlets conducted of online records purporting to show links between the New York Police Department and a secret membership database of Oath Keepers. According to the outlets, “hacked membership records were sent to a transparency nonprofit group called Distributed Denial of Secrets (DDoSecrets), which shares leaked data with journalists and researchers.” The leaked data does not show whether or not a member is still active, but the current or one-time members in question are definitely still active in New York as officials and officers.

A spokesman for Mayor de Blasio told Gothamist that there will be an investigation: “The Oath Keepers are a vile, extremist, anti-government organization. An immediate internal investigation has been launched.”

The Oath Keepers were founded by Stewart Rhodes in 2009 after President Obama’s inauguration, with calls by Rhodes for a new “civil war” to take place in our country. In recent years, with the rise of Donald Trump and the white supremacist foundation of the GOP becoming completely flagrant, the Oath Keepers have been able to reemerge from their doomsday-prepper caves in full jilted-bigot regalia. Being involved with the Oath Keepers is to be involved with a domestic terrorist organization, birthed out of racism against our country’s first, and so far only, Black president.

According to Gothamist, there are at least three New York public officials listed in the membership logs who claim they are no longer active members of the group. Their names were not published. However, the responses reporters got when they tried to contact various folks on the membership logs showed a real caginess that does not generally imply innocence. One of those matches was an active Staten Island officer who works in the Strategic Response Group—a group “deployed to quell protests, including those that erupted in New York City last year in response to the murder of George Floyd.”

When WNYC/Gothamist called the phone number associated with that membership entry, a man answered but did not confirm whether or not he was the officer in question. When asked if he was a member of the Oath Keepers, the man paused and asked how his number was obtained. He then declined to answer further questions.

Oswego County, NY’s 25th District Legislator Ralph Edward Stacy Jr., a Republican (gasp/eye roll), is also on the leaked membership list. He told Gothamist that it has been a very long time since he had filled out a membership for the never-not-racist-and-fascist organization, but that he hadn’t interacted with the group for over a decade.

“I do not condone what happened at the Capitol building and was not involved in what occurred,” said Stacy, who said he had never spoken to anyone involved with the organization and made clear he had not participated in the Capitol riot. “I certainly do believe in the right to peaceful assembly to protest one’s cause, but I do not believe in any sort of criminal trespass or criminal activity as a means to an end.”

In March, New York Daily News reported that active-duty officer Sal Greco, who was getting money from Trump surrogate and super-sketchy rich guy Roger Stone, was being investigated for his part as a possible under-the-table bodyguard for Stone. Stone used Oath Keepers as bodyguards during his time in D.C. around the Jan. 6 insurrection. The Daily News report connected Greco to the Oath Keepers circumstantially and through a strange Venmo account.

Roger Stone(R), former advisor to US President Donald Trump arrives at court prior to his sentencing hearing on February 20, 2020 in Washington, DC. – Donald Trump’s longtime aide Roger Stone will be sentenced February 20, 2020 in a case that has caused a stir in Washington following meddling by the US president and his attorney general. Stone, one of the Republican leader’s allies and “oldest friends,” was convicted in November of lying to Congress, tampering with a witness and obstructing the House investigation into whether the Trump campaign coordinated with Russia to cheat in the 2016 election.

Former Republican candidate for New York’s 6th Congressional district, Thomas Zmich, told Gothamist/WNYC that, while he had been part of the New York chapter of the Oath Keepers, that was a suuuuuper long time ago. [Cough] Three years ago, the New York chapter closed, which is when Zmich says he stopped being in the organization. While in Trump years that may feel like a lifetime ago, in the objective reality the rest of us live in, three years ago is three years ago.

None of this is surprising to readers around these parts. One of the larger national groups of fascist-wannabe seditionists congregated at our country’s Capitol on January 6 of this year. Law enforcement officials who fought bravely to defend our democracy testified in open court as to the disappointment and dangers they saw that day—including some insurrectionist cops. As the weeks have passed, more and more evidence has shown that Oath Keepers, amongst others, were very much involved in a conspiracy that day.

In recent weeks, the FBI has made it clear that they are pursuing a “seditious conspiracy” investigation. Oath Keepers have cut plea deals and more than a dozen other Oath Keepers are looking down the barrel of whatever the snitches and prosecutors have on them. This investigation is directly connected to the Oath Keepers’ presence in Washington D.C. on Jan. 6.
