The Rams have a shortage on good reporters

Man that's some great insight.

I wish Wagoner had stayed with the Rams. He used to be my favorite reporter.
Now he has that ESPN stank on him.

I've never been that big on Wagoner's reporting. His facts are usually consistent with Jim Thomas, which is good...but he's pretty good at putting his spin on a lot of things too. I don't like his demeanor on the radio either, seems arrogant at times...and I don't mean in the joking sarcastic way either.

Too funny @-X- !!!!!!! Nick did seem different on the rams page....How is Myles Simmons to everybody?

You talking about when he was with the Rams? I don't recall many spins or slants on his part. Just his usual tilt towards homerism. Which I liked.

Mostly his tweets and radio appearances.

I think Myles is full of cliches and doesn't bring much insight. But he does fine with the facts.

Plus he had that annoying spit strip between his lips for half of the report.

I prefer reporters who will report the facts, and then offer up an opinion or two on a solution etc.
This stuff here is just factual, bland and safe.

 

[Lesson]

As much as I despise slanted opinions given by reporters when reporting on the team(i.e.:JT reporting the entire Hewitt ordeal), I think Wagoner is better at keeping his bias out of his reporting for the most part, while I think JT is more likely to break a bigger story.

Per Wagoner: "The average draft position of Jeff Fisher teams in two nearly decades as a head coach is 17.9." That might be the dumbest point I've ever heard from someone I had previously respected.

Imagine the Rams were 1-11 right now and had the top spot in the draft, and Wagoner said... "Yeah, but the average position for Jeff Fisher teams in the last two decades is 17.9".

Oh, well, that changes everything. Thanks for bringing that useful counterpoint.

It's just a backhanded way of saying that Jeff Fisher is a .500 coach.

Mine too! Now he just wreaks of a true sell out. All he does is tweak the company line.
