Musings about the last 3 years Draft Picks+

The St. Louis Rams had some bad draft classes. The new regime has mostly excorcised those demons.

You Ram apologists want negativity?

It seems that the majority of people on TST's, especially the kids and authors (those that actually bother to login during baseball season) resent being told the truth about the state of the Rams....

Re-examining the Rams 2009 & 2010 Drafts. Rate for yourself.

My negative sentiments about the 2011 draft should be widely known on TST's by now. Below are the Billy Devaney/Steve Spagnuola picks from the previous two years, when STL picked 2nd and 1st...

If we're not gonna trade up to get a stud WR, it must mean we're going after one in free agency - right? I mean nobody is stupid enough to waste Sam's talent on the surgically repaired knees of...

So many needs, so little positives..., so far.

They say hope springs eternal in the human breast. However, I'm kinda in the doldrums regarding the Rams right now. The Atogwe situation was bad. I don't think he was worth $8M, but he was a...

There are certain teams in the NFL that I just outright hate; Patriots, 49ers, New Orleans, etc.  But the one I absolutely loathe the worst is the Seattle Seahawks.  I guessed the Saints would...

Requiem for a bittersweet season that ended badly...

Ok. Seven wins is a heckuva lot better than one. But this whole season has been one of constant ups and downs. I absolutely hate that we had to end it in such sorry fashion to a team as lousy as...

What about those 2011 Draft Picks...?

Back on June 12th I posted about using some or all of our 2011 draft picks to get some NFL quality players onboard for the 2010 season. See below excerpt:"Everyone in Sports is predicting we're #31...

We finally got the monkey off our backs. Whether we win or lose next week, we still managed to beat every team in our division this year. Hurrah!!!  And from what I'm reading in the late news we...

Why are many TST Authors unplugged??

I've noticed some regulars missing. So I just did a quick check of the TST Authors list. Some of these guys, nearly half, haven't even logged in or commented in over a month. One dude hasn't been...

It wasn't a good game against KC today...

I didn't see near as many people this week trying to turn an ugly home loss to KC into something positive. For the second week in a row we had NO pass rush. Chris Long had 1 tackle. No one on...

It wasn't a good game today in New Orleans...

I'm surprised by how many people are trying to turn this ugly loss into something positive. Sure the Saints are the reigning SB Champs and were playing at home. And yes, we were the 6-6 Rams who...

Let's hope a 5-6 record is a good omen.

For you guys that weren't around 30+ years ago, here's a little Rams' history. In 1979 the LA Rams were 5-6. After six straight NFC West Titles it looked like it was all over. However, we were in a...

Turnaround Season Goes Kaput

I guess I should be happy cause I figured the 2010 Rams might win 5-6 games total and they're on course to do it. But the more I think about and replay this season in my head, my gut hurts. We had...

We richly deserved today's loss to the 49ers

What else can be said? Another game in the bag given away in the 4th quarter. SJax stopped on 3rd and 1 when we could've burned up 4th quarter clock.  Then we let SF convert a 3rd down and 32...

Injuries threaten to decimate promising season

Well shoot guys. Who broke a mirror in the Rams Locker Room 4-5 years ago? Adversity can make a team strong, but we've had more than our share. Sometimes the volume of injuries is just too much to...
