Hello RoD members. I just joined the BB last night.

I've been a Rams fan since I turned 8 years old. I got a cat and named him Roman because he was white and had gray horn-like markings around his ears, just like Roman Gabriel!

My favorite Ram is Jack Youngblood (hence my handle), but Marshall Faulk came awfully close to displacing him.

My favorite Ram play, was Ferragamo to Waddy against the Cowboys in the '79 playoffs on the way to their first Super Bowl. A close second was, of course, Warner to Bruce in our WINNING Super Bowl.

All things considered, it's been a crazy ride. Suffering through the years when we clearly had one of the 2 or 3 best teams in the NFL, only to get beaten by the Vikings in mud, or the Cowboys. Then learning what true suffering was while enduring year after year of horrible teams. Then riding the highs while having the most potent offense ever assembled during the GSoT. Then back to horrible.

So to me, this extended period of mediocrity (more 7-9 BS) isn't all that bad. In my twisted view of the world, we could be anywhere from 9-1 to 0-10 this season, with a break either way. So this team is built to be mediocre. How can I expect them to do any better than are?

I have my own ideas on how to improve the squad, as I'm sure you all do as well. I will share them from time to time and look forward to reading what you all think as well.

It's great to have them back in LA. Too bad I had to move to Seattle!

Best of Turkey Day wishes to my fellow Ram fans!
 
Welcome to the board JackAttack. I live in Shecocks territory too, just north of the border.

Welcome aboard!!
 
That's a good way to put it. The Bucs, Seahawks, Cardinals, and Jets were all close wins that the defense won at the end. On the other side of it, a healthy Dline beats the Bills. And an above average QB wins vs the Panthers and Dolphins. That puts us at 7-3. Which is where we should be at in the 5th season of Fishers tenure.
 
I need to correct myself. An above average coach wins vs the Panthers and Dolphins. It was clear Fisher was behind the putrid offense against those teams.

Welcome aboard Jack. I'm a bit south of you here in Oregon but still in the middle of enemy territory.

So have fun, check things out, and Go RAMS!!!

Hey - don't forget to check out the FAQ section. It will give you a heads up on most of what the board has to offer and how we operate.
 
Welcome JackAttack85! That old Youngblood fella lives about 45 minutes down the road from me. This place is therapy for a die hard Rams fan. Enjoy!

Wait... WHAT?

You moved down my way and didn't tell me? Mr. Youngblood lives right here in Orlando.

Welcome to ROD. Glad to see there are members like me who remember the old days. Gabriel to Snow... Rams vs Vikings (Joe Kapp - ugh), and of course, the Fearsome Foursome.
