Hi ROD,
I came here for selfish reasons. Although I believe after I explain them it will be ok with all of you.
Here's my background with Ram related website.
I am one of those fans who is loyal and doesn't stray to far from home. I started out on the Rams message board years ago! When they chose to shut it down Will, Sparky and his wife invited me to RRF. I loved it there. I got to know a few members and loved the website. Over time the site moderators checked out and it was literally taken over by one poster. I lost interest and left for about 5 years. When I checked back in it was still the same. I posted my concerns a few times. With no moderators the site (IMO) lost its way. Elvis from RFU, Mr on RRF, invited me to RFU 4 years ago. I tried it out. I have enjoyed it a great deal. As with all forums you can't get along with everyone. I've blocked a few members and have surely been blocked myself.
This is what brings me here today. I enjoyed reading SWAdude and Dieterbrock's posts for years. One posted was banned and the other left due to the banning. I'm not butt hurt about it, but wanted to either say Goodbye or Hello Again (Cue Lionel) to these guys. I have no desire to bring anything posted there, HERE. I would like to keep reading their posts, interact when applicable.
I have been aware ROD for years, just tend to stick with smaller circles. I recognize many names on the member list. So I believe this will be a good experience.
My Rams history has covered the past 41 years. Became a fan in 79'. I was six and wanted to root against the Steelers with every fiber of my soul. So pretty much a childish endeavor. As time went by my mom got me Rams shirts, hats and football. Then Eric was drafted and my childish endeavor turned to love for the team. The 80's were great besides that crap team in San Fran ruining the decade. I stayed strong through the 90's and the move. It has been the team not the location for me. The Greatest Show re-energized my passion as I remembered what it was like as a child to watch a winner. The mid 2000's-2016 were as difficult as it could get. The MOVE happened and all the drama and stress that came with it. The recent SB, Gurly draft/release, Goff, Donald and the rest have kept me enthralled all this time. BLAH BLAH BLAH.
For anyone who is active at RFU they can attest this is my second longest post EVER.
Thanks for reading and getting some Zzzz's in.
Not sure how much I will post, but I will read and acknowledge a lot.

I met SWA and his wife at the Super Bowl. If he's recommended you... that's about as solid a recommendation as one could get.
Welcome Brudda Neil. Don't be a stranger to posting.
Thanks brother! Likewise for sure.
I was just looking at the pictures of that weekend last night. We had so much fun! Hope to do it again with you soon!
Hope you and your great Family are healthy and happy.
Hell yeah! Back at you.
Tell your wife that mine says Hi... she was just sticky beaking over my shoulder as I was responding here. Hahaha. Too bad you guys live as far away from as us as possible in the continental US.
Welcome,I just joined today. I am glad to be aboard. I love the Rams history, iconic uniforms and color scheme. Tom Fears is one of my favorite players of all-time. Actually I am in the process of contributing to a book on the 1951 Rams that centers around the team as it was the first championship on the west coast.
Nice to meet everyone! Hopefully we will interact in the boards!
Hey all! I'm a football coach from California and love to breakdown film. Have recently done a couple on some Rams players and wanted to join your community and interact. I think Goff has a bright future ahead of him.
If you want to check it out, here it is:

Looking forward to talking and diving into what the Rams have going on both from a scheme and personnel side.

Take your time. This software, once you’re used to it, is LIGHT YEARS ahead of all other php-based software, and so much easier to use. If you need help with certain features, just ask around and someone will help. Other than that, go fuck yourself and welcome to ROD.Hi this is dangerzone from the old StLouis Today forum.Saw the Great way you Guys post and decided to join.
