Envy is a green eyed Monster....
As long suffering fans we know what it's like to have hopes about a free agent and then losing hm to someone else...Trades that were not sweet enough to get a deal done, with our only hope being a high draft pick the next year after another horrific season...
Matthew Stafford
Von Miller
OBJ
Could you imagine how we would have felt when the Rams were in St Louis and a single player was signed like one of those above? It seemed like every good veteran was getting signed by Bellicheat for cheap in New England, because those vets were chasing a Super Bowl. We hated the Patriots for other good reasons.
Our situation is different in that we have a palatial, state-of-the-art stadium in which to play. Southern California is a draw by itself with year around nice weather and beautiful places to go and live. The team has a history of winning since 2017 with a young innovative HC. All we hear from the pundits is about how we're "all in," (I hate that phrase anymore....Find other descriptions, folks! ) "They have no excuses now....the pressure is really on McVay..Stafford....etc..." What we are really hearing is "Who the hell do they think they are? The Rams are not following convention and need to be taken down a peg or two." So they throw shade and back handed compliments. They and other team's fans want us to fail. Let's not give them that satisfaction
