I'll let you know the very second I give a crap about your opinion. There isn't much to add to what Lori had to say - she's got a far better handle on the situation than you do. "Second tier at best"? Is that because you say so? Bell was the second most coveted FA guard in football last offseason behind Faneca (who the Rams also tried to sign) - but you keep shoveling what you're selling. The line was pitiful for the reasons that Lori stated - at one point Alex Barron was the only guy on the field who began the season on the roster and he was flipped to LT. There isn't a team in the NFL that would have overcome the OLine injuries the Rams had last season. There isn't a team in the NFL that doesn't count on guys coming back from injury when their doctors tell them they will, especially when one of them is a 7-time Pro Bowler and others have a boatload of starts to their credit. And Pace has stated numerous times that he wants to play a couple of more years, so whatever rumors you're alluding to are just that. They also expected to take Jake Long in the draft but the Fish got to suck a little more last season, so they took the cherry off the Rams' sundae.

I predicted it 5 years ago. Anyone with an ounce of sense could see this coming.

Facts suck.

I don't think any poll is reliable.

Too bad both of them are so bad for you.

“When I spoke up about Haditha, my intention was to draw attention to the horrendous pressure put on our troops in Iraq and to the cover-up of the incident,” Murtha said at the time. Righhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhht.

Wow. I just watched "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid" the other day.

Amen.

Yep, that's all you did. Now we've moved onto victimization. I had to. It's really lonely here in the basement of my "dark Alaskan" igloo.

You know, it's just funny to watch the spiral: Here, you call me out. I respond - later you accuse me of picking a fight. Here's a gem of football analysis that was sure to illicit a multiple paragraph response explaining why certain players in the RAMS scheme are failing to execute their responsibilities, correct? And finally, an insult - followed by the completely expected "all you do is insult people who just wanna talk a little football". Nicely done, troll.

Ooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhm...Ooooooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhm! Hockey mom's rule! (well, except crazy neocon hockey mom's).

You some kind of pecker checker ("lilannie" is a euphemism, ain't it)? I mean seriously, why is it you friggin' new people feel the need to prove your football stupidity in such a public manner and then run to the "you're addicted to the internet" card when you're embarrassed? Do you think this is some kind of new tact that I haven't seen before?

Terminally stupid people. Try and figure it out.

I guess we can add "Reading Comprehension" to "Talent Evaluation" to the list things you really suck at. Well I guess you told me.

Whatever, troll. You're just another of the insufferable idiots who repeats the media regurgitations like you're a friggin' expert when reality is you have no clue what you're talking about.

Care to guess what percentage of those guys were brought in by the coach? Yeah, now STFU.

I don't know how a guy in his second season playing out of position could be considered a bust. I'm with you that Hill is a disappointment but who knows what the reason is? Doesn't change the fact that the guy was picked at the top of the draft BY LINEHAN. If he's not talented, guess who gets the blame for that one?

You left off: Adam Carriker -- 13th pick in the first round Dan "Super Bowl Ring" Kreider Ty Hill -- 15th pick in the first round Will Witherspoon -- Led Rams in tackles in SB versus NE. Jacob Bell -- All Rookie team with the Titans Drew Bennett -- Led the Titans in receiving yards for 3 straight season. It's not a talent issue and pretty soon it won't be a Linehan/Ziggy issue, either. The Rams have a losing culture that was turned around for one very short period in their history. Linehan brought it right back.

You have absolutely no clue what you're talking about. You sound like Raider fans who told us what a talentless POS Langston Walker was.

I never said they were "really talented". But what you and the rest of the idiots are doing is mass media stupidity. There is no team in the !@#$ing NFL that doesn't have talent, especially among their starters. Rams fans used to whine about guys like Curtis and Pickett because they "didn't have enough talent". Well both of those guys look plenty talented on teams that actually know how to use them. They have more than enough talent on their roster to win their division. Are the Browns "less talented" than they were last season, despite adding former first round draft choices?

I guess the reason this needed it's own thread is because daddy never valued you enough? Sorry Cow !@#$er, I ain't looking for any more mouths to feed. Now run along.

You know, I'm sick of that line of sh--. That team HAS talent. What it doesn't have is coaching. Every team in the NFL has talent. The problem with most of them is the coaches try and fit square pegs into round holes and that's exactly what Linehan has done. Last season he had an excuse because the OLine was so bad but this year the players won't play for him and it's not a talent issue.

Not based on his time in St Louis.

If I were the reporter I would have said: "Because there are actually people who care about the Nationals". I have a ton of respect for Mr. Nader because he does care about America and wants to do what he think is best - but that dude is certifiable.
