I will try to keep up on these. It may not be daily and I will also probably be posting some trivia from the NFL as a whole. Good luck and have fun.

Note: These questions will change almost daily. I will unsticky them as soon as I post the answer.

OK so here is the deal. Years ago I found an LA Rams Trivia Game in a Goodwill. I pretty much bought it as a piece of memorabilia. Now with the Rams moving back, I thought it might make for a fun game for some of us old timers. Odd thing is that about 70% of the questions have nothing to do with the Rams.

So here is what I will do. I will post the questions that are Rams related and let you guys answer. I will then post the answers the next day. These are not easy questions as far as I can tell but maybe the memory function of my brain has been compromised.

There is only basically one rule. No search engines or internet sites to look up answers that you will post later. I realize some will still look up the answers. I know I would if I didn't have the cards. But I want to see how many out there actually know the answers. So if you do feel like looking them up on the internet, feel free.

And if you know the answer, don't post it. Comment all you want.

Now - keep in mind. I said the internet is off limits. But if you have books, magazines, football cards, etc... feel free to use them. That may seem hypocritical but it's about time some of us got some use out of all that stuff we've bought over the years.

Cheers.

Loved Saul. We had a string of great centers from the early Seventies through the eighties. Ground Chuck, Malavasi, Robinson Era included.

Ken Iman, followed by Rich Saul, followed by Doug Smith. Good times.

I was at Saul's last nfl game in Anaheim. He got a rousing standing ovation from the crowd when it was announced that he'd be retiring. It was pretty awesome...Rams fans sure loved Rich!

I guessed, and I was wrong. Oh well. I still love Rams trivia.

I wanted to cheat on this one.
I really, REALLY did. But I din't. I relied on my recollection of the days when he got overlooked for his consistent, quiet toughness.
Ha ha ha ...... then I changed my answer at the last minute. :neener:

Wow! You guys suck at this. :sneaky:

I suppose I'll have to come up with an easier one for yawlz.

Only 25% of you got this one right. Though it took Rich Saul until his 6th season to crack the starting line-up and take over for long time Rams center Ken Iman, Saul showed his metal by making 6 Pro Bowls to finish his career on top. Once Rich became the starter, he started all but one game over the next seven including every game of his final season. He finished his last season with yet another Pro Bowl selection becoming one of a short list to walk away as one of the best in the game.

Sadly Rich passed away at the way too young age of 64 after battling Leukemia for 9 years.
