I am embarrassed to be a Rams fan if you watch the number of cheap shots thrown by Ram players in that video.
Its one thing to stand up for a teammate or to have someone's back....but that does NOT extend to hitting a guy IN the back when they are not looking.

Bunch of punk ass bitches who should be cut or fined the maximum amount allowed, most disappointing?
Looks like a tie for me - Stedman Bailey (one of the cheap shots was him) and Todd Gurley (STAY OUT OF SCRUMS WHILE STILL REHABBING YOUR KNEE!!!)
 
Clearly, the team didn't get better on day 2 of the joint practices. I wonder if the players got anything positive on the field from this business trip.
 
Holy crap. What the freak guys.

If nothing else our team can fight. We've proved that many times under Fisher.
Yeah i can understand why some would frown upon this. Hell. i'm 46 yrs old and have finally determined after decades and several fights myself that when you look back at it...most of it was stupid. But when you're young and you get pushed, or your buddy gets pushed...you push back. Hopefully no one on either side got seriously hurt and our guys are now awake and ready to hit before week 8 like last season.
I can't fault our guys here.
 
Lol called this from the get go, you just knew things were going to erupt. Not happy at all Gurley, or the whole team for that matter, threw down. A setback to Gurley or an injury to any of our starters/back ups over words and immaturity would piss me off... And I'm coming at it from someone that same age group.

Something like this could be one of those team galvanizing moments, when their back is against the wall, rumors swirling about the team moving, after a decade of losing, a group of young guys hits rock bottom and then finds a way to climb out together, relying on each other against the world...

Or this could just be the beginning of an undisciplined group of kids pooping the bed en route to a meh season.

Guess we'll see.

Meh, looks like a good team building exercise to me. I don't want to go into the season with other teams thinking we're a bunch of chumps.
 
Meh, it happens all the time, tempers flare and things happen. It's easy to throw judgment around when you're sitting at home nowhere near what's happening between these two parties.

Still, not a fan of the cheap shots or Gurley deciding to come in when he's rehabbing an injury.

Gurley doing his best Kurt Angle impression.


God damnit, Todd.

He wasn't lying though. He really doesn't second guess any movements on his knee.

So other than this childish fight, it looks like Tavon, Britt, and Stedman had some good catches today. Were there any other observations today?

With what may be two days in a row (I think) with the starters, it sounds like Rhaney is the next option at LG.

misplaced aggression is the same crap that leads to missed tackles and just bad play.

I'm all for tons of aggression, but we finally need to be smart about it and channel all that aggression into RESULTS.

Let other teams self destruct. We have all the pieces we need now. If we don't defeat ourselves, we can win it all. Yes, I think we can beat the Seahawks, Broncos, Packers, and Patriots of the league if we focus and execute with ruthless and disciplined aggression.

This nonsense? Well, this garbage is barely worthy of what we've been getting.. 6-7 wins with moments of competence.
Spot on man.

I want a tough team. A bunch of dudes that will beat the hell out of the competition, within the rules. This doesn't look good at all. Especially when you compound it with 2013 in Seattle, and last year against the Giants.

Shed the tough guy image and just be a mean team that whoops ass in 4 downs.
