Just wanted to share an old pic...

2006 game @ SD. My first Rams regular season game (I was 13). Rams lost by 14. I was suuper pissed because Merriman was allowed to play this game a week after getting caught for PEDs, he had 3 sacks. Turning point of the game was Stephen Davis' fumble in the 3rd as the Rams were driving for the lead, taken back for a TD by Marlon McCree. It was the game where LT stiff armed OJ's helmet off.

Anyways, enough gibber jabber, wanted to put the pic up in memory of SJ leaving STL. We had some great guys in the huddle back then...

Very nice, man. Much appreciated.

Nice pic.

2006 seems so long ago. I remember going to the game vs the Skins in which SJ scored a TD in OT to keep the Rams' playoff hopes alive.

That was an awesome comeback sparked by OJ's haymaker punch of a fumble on a long Betts run. SJ had that great 70+ yard WRing TD. Wish my first Rams game had been earlier than 2006... I missed out on some great times

Nice.

That's some football players right there.

Is that Pace in the upper left? 2006... it should be (although he missed 8 games).

Yeah, we had some players didn't we?

Yes. The huddle goes Holt, SJ, Bulger, Pace, Steussie, Cogs, Timmerman, Barron, Klop, Ike. Hedgecock was running onto the field I think...

I can't help but wonder if Barron could have achieved more under a better coaching scenario. Granted, Boudreau was in STL in 2006 and 2007... but the decision to terminate him was just dumb. Had he stayed with Barron, maybe...?

I remember feeling optimistic about the Rams after 2006 going into 2007.

Then 2007 happened.

Oddly enough 2008 brings me one of my most fond Rams memories.

Oh nothing really. I was deployed overseas, and just got back from a pretty long mission and had about 4 hours to rest, eat, refill my magazines and shower before leaving for the next long mission. I opted to shower and eat, and then go to get more ammo from the TOC where they had a TV with the armed forces network on. Right as I was leaving I heard the TV say "And now we bring you the St Louis Rams vs the Washington Redskins." so instead of sleeping I watched the game and got to see the Rams win. Only time I was ever back at the FOB where they had TV for a Sunday, and it happened to be a Rams game. I thought it was pretty cool. Even though it was a pretty small game in everything it'll always hold a little bit of significance to me.

I'll second what X said ^. I have some memories of Rams games I watched snippets of or heard on the radio in the mid 2000s. My mom used to punish me by banning me from seeing Rams games , so I have vivid memories of the ones I happened to see in a store, restaurant, listen to on the radio.
