It would appear that the Rams are now headed in the right direction with the hiring of Super Bowl LOSING coach Jeff Fisher, but I disagree. His coaching record, while definitely more favorable than Coach Spags, still leaves much to be desired. Sure he may have been the best to chose from, but was he really? The ex-Raiders HC Hue Jackson (not to be confused with Hugh Jackman) took a sorry azz Raiders team and got them to 8-8 while Fisher took a very talented Titans team and ran it into the ground, besides ruining Vince Young's career before it could even get started.
I truly hope that hiring Coach Fisher will get us back to the glory days and out of the glory hole days, but it is going to be a long arduous process that is make or break for me. Many Sundays have been wasted on the love of my life and I cannot take anymore terrible football from it. The other love of my life, the alive one, is getting tired of it too. Another failed attempt at winning Rams football could very well give me the impetus to break away from it once and for all. Which love of my life will win? Here's to both of them being here when the dust finally settles!

And Then There Were None...
No games, no GM, and no Head Coach. No penalties, no dropped passes, no stupid play calls, no half-filled dome with the other half filled with opponent's fanbases. All these things that defined our lousy season have now come to an end, and none to soon. I strongly hope that the next GM and HC make waaaay better decisions than the last set did, and that one of those decisions involves Justin Blackmon. A bigger better T.O. without the 'tude is a no brainer in my book.
IF I watch any games next year it will be great to see him gel with Bradford, opening up the box for Steven Jackson to tear defenses apart once again. And all this talk of trading Bradford, well, I want none of that either!

Horrible Again
Just a horrible horrible horrible display of football on Sunday, one that I didn't think possible after the horrible horrible display of football against the Seahawks the week before. What in the world was Coach thinking in this game? Its not Madden 12!!! The play calling in this game was just pitiful, as was once again the drive and momentum killing penalties that have plagued this team all season. How in the world we beat the Saints still just totally befuddles me, in fact I can't even remember right now how we did it.
I wrote previously that the acquisition of Brandon Lloyd was great sure, but that the guy would still drop a ton of passes and sure enuff the ones he miffed last week were just horrible. And when he does make them he seems to NEVER do it standing up - he kinda reminds me of the baseball outfielder who dives to make the catch when he doesn't need to. I really wish the coaches would remind him that YAC is waaaay more important than style, and that just because a pass doesn't need a spectacular move to make it doesn't mean he should let it fall to the ground. The guy is killing me with his ability to make the diving, stretching, contorting catch but don't you dare hit him in the hands. But I guess that when 60 percent of passes are dropped instead of 80, well, then it's acceptable.
Bench Jason Brown NOW!!! Replace Goldberg NOW!!! Them two are just atrocious. Goldberg got Bradford absolutely redrumed on Sunday, the worst one leading to a fumble after he got blown up within 1.5 seconds of dropping back to pass. There is no way to win like that, no way in heel. I'm tired of seeing our QB get slammed without any chance, I'm tired of seeing yellow on the field for the same stupid mental mistakes play after play. Barron is gone! Let him go please, he is the last person they should be trying to emulate. And now I'm gone, to San Francisco to watch our Rams kick the tarter sauce out of the Whiners. Well, unless someone out there wants to suffer for me...

So Much for THAT
Yup, I was wrong again. I think that from now on I will just say they will probably win or maybe even probably...not after they not only lost Salas for the season but also another winnable game. I do not believe that our ability to make no-name rookies seem like all-pros will ever lend itself to winning another game, and I do not believe that our starters dropping like flies year after year will ever win us another division even if we stop the aforementioned quality.
This team has been the same for so many years now it is ridiculous, and it just goes to show even more so that Kurt Warner should be a first-ballot HOF'er. Our team and the Cardinals have both taken a huge downturn after he left them in SB form, and he helped the Giants mold Eli into a SB winning QB. Bradford is going to be a great QB in this league, but even Dan Marino never won a SB. The way this team plays to lose is just sickening, and until the boneheads at the top figure out how to put a winning staff together we will always be on the wrong end of what is the greatest game in the world.
