YAY!!! Looks like Snead called AD's retirement bluff, now he's gonna be a career Ram first ballot HOFer!
Not sure if we're good enough let alone any better than 2021 to repeat but obviously locking in AD was a must. |

As long as they build an INDOOR practice field this is doomed to fail, choosing the hottest part of LA county to build team facilities w/o a temp controlled environment could cause so many heat strokes. |

I hope the new practice field is indoors. Woodland Hills is often times the hottest part of the valley. Also Santa Ana winds get pretty bad year round. And occasionally you have to deal with cold, rain and fire smoke. _________________ Nobody in the NBA can touch the Laker brand, which, like the uniform color, is pure gold. |

Interesting - the 2nd purchase is right next to my Kaiser facility. Going to be cool to have these in the valley. By the way, he's pretty much buying these properties at the height of real estate prices. Whoever owned them previously probably made a killing...And yeah, he's so rich that it really doesn't matter. |

Good time to be a Rams fan. Still trying to pay off that Super Bowl bill but it was worth it. Unbelievable. And now nine nine gets his well deserved loot. Schedule is tough. Hoping for 10-7 or 11-6 |

Quote: | The Rams and WR Cooper Kupp are close on a three-year extension, per source. As I reported this morning, sides have made positive progress as all are on the same page and the sense was it would come together quickly. Not done just yet. |

Quote: | With this looming 3-year extension, Cooper Kupp could approach or pass the $25M per year mark. A 3-year deal worth in the ballpark of $75M would be an incredible way to end Kupp’s magical season and offseason. |

We were surrounded by bengal fans. Sat next to another ram fan and by the end of the game I was jumping in his arms and still don’t know his name. Halftime show was lit too. Damn near no one went to the concession stands.
The genre of music that has dominated the chart for 25 years finally gets its own stage and it didnt disappoint. |

12-5 would be nice. Tampa has all their tough games at home. Road might go through there or Dallas if they ever get it right. That NFC EAST should be an easy 6-0 for them. |

I don't see it that way at all for Dallas. I think they have clearly taken a step back this offseason, and Philly has clearly gotten better and, for that matter, so have the Giants and Commanders. The division winner seems to turn over every year there, also. |

Quote: | After saving more than $13 million in cap space from the signings of Stafford, Donald and Kupp, the Rams are left with $7.61 million. That includes the $2.54 million they saved by releasing Travin Howard, as well.
That may seem like a nice chunk of money to spend this year, but only six teams have less cap space than the Rams right now. The Browns have the most cap space at more than $42 million.
Unused cap space gets rolled over to the next year, so there is a small benefit to not spending all your allotted money, but the Rams are clearly committed to winning now and are spending accordingly. |

Quote: | ILB Travin Howard is expected to re-join the Rams, per source. Would be a one-year deal (@Schultz_Report first on terms).
As I mentioned last week after Howard was waived pre-Kupp deal for cap reasons, team wanted him back on different number. Lots of potential. |

Ramsey is expected to be fully cleared by the start of the 2022 season. |
