Sounds like we got Wifey Veronika to thank for having Sean around. Also sounds like now that he's had kids he will be sticking around a LONG time as an example to them. This all ties in with the theory of the Simpson pick too, and not putting ALL the eggs into the "Stafford era basket."

Good, short watch.....

Rodriquez knew the story & his struggles afterwards.

The reason why I lost respect for her.She had the story,but elected to give it up early than to give him his time to decide his future as The Rams HC.

Raheem Morris deserves a lot of credit for being a mentor.The Rams Organization has been super supportive,but they were ready to move on.You finish up a season & need to find out what your future in LIFE is ?? I do like Mcvays openness,but also respect how he keeps things internally to protect his players (persons).

I heard something that I’m not SURE is TRUE.How MUCH does SEAN MCVAY get PAID ?? The rumor I think I heard that MONEY isn’t the ISSUE??? A long with Les Snead as well ??

I'm...a little confused by what you said. If Jordan Rodriguez sat on the story and struggles, it will mean that I've gained a ton of respect for her. Most journalists would've posted that, but if she knew, she showed outstanding journalistic integrity that is immensely rare in this day and age.
 
Here's a little bit more info from the long interview.

Included is the fact that while Stafford UNDERSTOOD the Simpson selection he wasn't really enamored of it, which is completely understandable coming from such a great competitor who's in his twilight seemingly. As i said in another thread, lets hope Matt keeps Ty's ass firmly planted on bench for as long as possible.

Also included is how close we were to putting Stafford on IR to start the season which would have kept him out 4 weeks.

@kmramsfan I was telling Rob about this particular conversation while we were at the lake fishing and that’s the same line he used. BTW, he out fished me again this morning.

That's the part that some of the critics of the Simpson pick don't understand. I just saw Tim Hasselbeck, on NFL Live, criticize the pick because they could have used it on "depth where age is creeping up on the roster". His words!

Well, what is the most important position on a team and who is our oldest starting player? I mean, duh. Stafford could easily miss time and with Jimmy G retiring, they needed a legit talent at back up QB, who can win a game or two if they have to get through a month without Stafford.
