You take it. It doesn’t matter how lucky or unpretty a goal is, or how little it has to do with the person credited with it, you take the score.

Did The Rams Draft Michael Sam Just To Avoid <i>Hard Knocks</i>?

The NFLPA Caught The Rams Trying To Short Players By Writing Missouri Labor Laws Into Contracts
The Los Angeles Rams took to their move to California with immediate verve, and tried to broadcast their identity by telling you exactly where their press conferences were (Manhattan Beach baby!) and selling you insufferably branded gear. But, according to a report yesterday from PFT, one thing the ...

In the past twelve months, the state of Missouri has watched its NFL team depart for Los Angeles while its lone Division I-FBS team nearly went on strike due to racism on campus; they went 5-7 on the season.

St. Louis Lawyer Buys Super Bowl Ad To Tell Stan Kroenke To Get Fucked
I put out a call during last night’s Super Bowl local ad break for the best and worst of your local markets, and got replies ranging from axe-murderer Joe Jacoby to HVAC-shilling Mike Tyson to an ad in Omaha for a male enhancement doctor who will make your dong so powerful it will leave your partner...

Stan Kroenke, Fresh Off Leaving St. Louis In The Lurch, Asks St. Louis For Tax Dollars

Claire McCaskill Might Actually Do Something About The Publicly-Financed Stadium Scam
Missouri senator Claire McCaskill says that she is drafting legislation that would require professional sports franchises that skip town prematurely to refund the public.

The thing that always strikes me about people’s reactions to the general fuckery carried out by pro sports owners is the genuine disbelief.
