Guy That Enabled Kurt Warner's Career Retires
As a very, very late bloomer to football, one of my first memories was hearing about Rams quarterback Trent Green down for the count in 1999. More »

Richie Incognito Prefers Angry Boos To Quiet Indifference
Things are tough all over in St. Louis, what with the Rams playing out the string on a 2-8 season with the sinking realization that Jim Haslett is who we thought he was. Perhaps the only thing that could make it better is to have a nice public feud between players and fans over who is worse at their jobs. More »

And Our Next NFL Coach To Get The Axe Is
Not long before she died, Georgia Frontiere made it known that she wanted Scott Linehan to have a third season as head coach of the Rams. So much for final wishes. Linehan was given the heave-ho at 2 a.m. today by Frontiere's sons after discussing the alternative of — get this — keeping him and bringing in Dick Vermeil as a consultant. That would have been a lot of fun. Anyway, defensive coordinator Jim Haslett now gets the reins on an interim basis. More »Lane KiffinScott Linehan

Torry Holt Would Like to Apologize for Sucking
First Steven Jackson was totally not happy with Rams' head coach Scott Linehan's decision to bench Marc Bulger in favor of Trent Green. Former All Pro and now mediocre wide receiver Torry Holt is the latest to voice his displeasure with the whole situation. He just wants to play some football, "It will give us a platform to escape this madness that is going on." But before they take the field on Sunday, Holt had to let Bulger know the entire receiving corp is sorry for sucking: More »

NFL Season Preview: St. Louis Rams
The NFL season has officially started, so it's time to finish the impassioned season previews from various writers, bloggers, diehard fans, cooks, TV personalities, and numerous other walks of life whom consider football the only sport worth watching. Clearly, these previews will be running until, oh, the first round of the wild card playoffs based on how quickly they've been coming in. So, for the next few days, expect a lot of these. Actually, let's see how many we can get out in one day. More »

Rush Limbaugh Pursuing the Rams?
Would the universe implode if he traded for Donovan McNabb? Aside from his short-lived experiment with ESPN's Sunday NFL Countdown, Rush previously worked in promotions for the Kansas City Royals and frequently references his sports fandom on his show. Speculation on Limbaugh as an owner has intensified since owner Georgia Frontiere died. Limbaugh also signed a $400 million dollar radio extension in early July which could help a bit with the finances. Befitting his quiet nature, Limbaugh did not tamp down the speculation in an interview with the St. Louis Business Journal last Friday. More »

The Fantasy Impact Of Steven Jackson's Cleansed Colon
During yesterday's story about Rams running back Steven Jackson and his messy colon cleanse, I questioned the potential fantasy football impact such a procedure would have on the top five running back. Thankfully, some of the wise men from Yahoo!'s Fantasy Football think tank decided it was worthy of a discussion. Please enjoy this "exclusive analysis" from Brad Evans, Andy Behrens, and Brandon Funston.

Rams' Lawyers Attempt to Do What Team Could Not
It's two weeks after Losergate (or, if you will, Super Bowl XLII) and people are still making a hue and cry over cheating charges leveled at the now-humbled Patriots. The latest comes from former Rams player Willie Gary and two Rams season ticket holders, who are suing the Pats, seeking $100 million and a portion of Robert Kraft's stake in Russian petrodollars because the Pats taped the Rams walkthrough the day prior to Super Bowl XXXVI.

The Passing of Georgia Frontiere
Georgia Frontiere passed away yesterday at the age of 80. Over the years a great deal has been said and written about the controversial owner of the St. Louis Rams, but her lasting legacy will be that of the first woman to control an NFL franchise. The owner endured her share of controversy, but she also achieved quite a bit of success for an owner of either sex. The team she inherited, relocated, and ultimately led to glory was recently valued at over $900 million. In honor of the Rams owner here I present you with quite possibly the greatest team song in the history of professional sports, after the jump... More »

Adam Carriker Is A Ram
With the 13th pick of the NFL Draft, the St. Louis Rams take Adam Carriker, DL, Nebraska. Mike Tanier of Football Outsiders tells you all about it.Must ... resist ... urge to make ... bad puns. The Rams latest draft pick is quite a Carriker. The team was smart to select a first round pick with no Carriker issues. All of his Carriker references checked out. Wait, wait, I have more.

Lawrence Phillips Goes For Rare Triple Crown
An old George Carlin comedy routine had a good time mocking California's "Three Strikes And You're Out" policy of jailing three-time felons for life; Carlin pointed out that the writing of laws for the incarceration of our citizens should perhaps not be based in cute and funny baseball terms. But as far as we know, no athlete has ever actually notched one of the real-world trifectas. More »

It's Rex Grossman's World, And We Are Just Satellites
We might make the argument that the most compelling figure in the NFL right now is Chicago Bears quarterback Rex Grossman. This is a guy who, at times — that is to say, during times that weren't in the last month-plus — has looked like a legitimate NFL quarterback, a guy who is a leader, as they say, whoever they are. But of late, he has made Bears fans pine for the days of Kyle Orton, which is very similar to us: We will always pine for the days of Kyle Orton. More »

Nothing More Enraging Than A Buzzsaw Loss
You know, we have to admit, if we were a fan of the St. Louis Rams, or, say, a former USC star who isn't even strong enough right now to make the active roster of the St. Louis Rams, after losing convincingly to the Buzzsaw yesterday, well, we might want to stab someone in the face too. More »

NFL Season Preview: St. Louis Rams
We are officially less than a month before the start of the NFL season, so it's probably time to start previewing the monster.

That is to say: You don't see a lot of people painting their faces for their favorite golfer. More »

Sorry, We Don't Know Any "Mark Mights." Try Again Later
It takes a special kind of coach to be undermined and humilated while sitting at home, and ladies and gentlemen, Mike Martz (of course) is that coach.

Who Is The Dumbest Team In Football?
It's a general consensus, we think, that football players are considered dumb. Even if they were smart at birth, once their brains were subjected to repeated jostling for two decades, all the good genes probably ended up dripping out. Well, the Wall Street Journal today looks at how each NFL team scored on the Wonderlic tests to decipher which is the most intelligent team, and which is the dumbest. More » -
