The AZ sports guys were lamenting the same phenomenon at State Farm against the Lions Sunday. And their solution seems right: Put the beat down on those teams a couple of times and take away the incentive to travel.

Don't nobody want to get on a plane, spend the time and the money to watch their team get mauled on the road.
Amen !!

There are advantages to aging.

One positive is I won’t be around to see things I would prefer not to see.

Of course, the big negative is that I will be dead.

So, overall, guess it’s a Net Negative.
The biggest advantage to being old is that there were no cell phones recording the stupid shit we did. I would either be internet famous or about to be released from prison. If there had been cell phones back in the 80s and 90s.

And agree with him here, Wendell has done a good job balancing things and getting guys ready. Far from perfect but our backups/makeshift line are better than a lot of teams starters.

If you are not a Rams fan, then you’re probably not paying a lot of attention to Stafford, therefore, you are not seeing how elite he is. The no look throws are routine for him. As Baldy points out, he hit JW in stride…a rookie… that he has played with for 5 minutes.

I am glad he is our QB and will miss him when he’s gone. I grew up in the Southeast so I had a front row seat to Stafford’s college (as well as Gurley’s) career and wanted the Rams to draft him. I was so stoked when they traded for him. HUUUUGE win Sunday could be one that propels them to a 3-2 at the bye.

Horns Up!

One major advantage is breaking up via text. Much better then years ago giving that "It's not you, it's me speech and you deserve better."

I am seeing a lot of kids not even care about football these days.
My son just turned 13 and he is crazy about it.
He knows the entire roster and is very tuned in to all things NFL.
He’s a die hard Rams fan.

Even when he was younger. When he found out Gurley wasn’t on the team, he said “I hope he goes to the Bengals”.
I asked why the Bengals.
He said “because they are trash”.
He was pissed off at Gurley.

Not all is lost.

I’m not refuting you, just trying to give an example to lift your spirits.

It’s great watching with my son. He plays in high school and he loves defensive line. He notices subtle details that I miss every week.

I’m going to let my son play again next fall.

He played 2 years ago, but got a head contusion.
It took a couple months before the symptoms stopped.

I’m going to give it another try now that he’s older and bigger.
Hopefully it was just a freak accident.

Hey, my brother became a Broncos fan only a few years ago after not really caring about football one way or another. There's always hope; I'm just glad my brother follows a team (unlike my dad, who basically only cares about St. Louis teams and wanted me to follow soccer when it became a St. Louis sport. SOCCER. And I'm, like, fuck no.)

My wife got my son a device called a Q-collar. Players wear them around their necks and it somehow protects from concussion. A couple of our players have them. They say it feels odd at first but they are easy to aclimate to.

Lincoln is a Sr. but he has some small college offers so I’m hoping he continues to play. I definitely see coaching in his future. He needs to make connections.

Soccer? Yuk.

I watch my daughter play Goalie on a club team. That’s about as much soccer as I need in my life.

Cool

I just know my stepson and ALL of his friends were not even remotely interested in football.

I tried. But no go.

I was at Vegas and the big screen at the pool was showing soccer games and I tried watching and after about 10 minutes I was just bored out of my skull.

This needs a repost on soccer

I’ll definitely be looking into that.
Thank you
