St. Louis Rams For Sale?

AUTHOR: stlvinnie | IN: Rams | COMMENTS: 8 Comments

Michael Silver of Yahoo Sports reported on Tuesday that the St. Louis Rams are for sale. Well isn’t that nice. Season ticket bills were due May 1st, back when Chip Rosenbloom and daughter Lucia Rodriguez were so happy to own the Rams and were going to do everything in their power to keep them in St. Louis. Well welcome to reality and greed only a couple of months later. Once again the Rams organization is doomed by the simple fact that it is being run by non-football people. In typical John Shaw, president of the St. Louis Rams fashion, he [...]

AUTHOR: stlvinnie | IN: Rams | COMMENTS: None Yet

The Arizona Cardinals are going to induct Aeneas Williams into the Cardinals Ring of Honor at halftime of the Monday Night Football Game vs. San Francisco 49ers on Monday November, 10th. Scott from Raisingzona.com wrote the great article below. We at Ramblinfan.com would like to say congrats and thank you to Aeneas for his great play and leadership with the St. Louis Rams. Aeneas should have won a ring in 2001 with the St. Louis Rams. Enjoy the honor you deserve it.
I read today that former Cardinals CB Aeneas Williams is going to be inducted into the Cardinals Ring of Honor at halftime [...]

Matt Walsh Sends Spygate Tapes to NFL, Rams Win Superbowl XXXVI!

AUTHOR: stlvinnie | IN: Rams | COMMENTS: 1 Comment

Well Matt Walsh finally gave the elusive spygate tapes to the NFL, but not THE tape. According to FoxSports ”The tapes sent to the NFL show the Patriots recorded signals in regular-season games against Miami, Buffalo, Cleveland and San Diego, and against Pittsburgh in the 2002 AFC championship game.” Walsh is now supposed to meet with Roger Goodell next Tuesday. What happend to that tape of the Rams walkthrough? Walsh’s lawyer stated that Walsh never said he had a tape of the St. Louis Rams Superbowl walkthrough. How convenient that the tape that started most of this investigation now does not [...]

AUTHOR: stlvinnie | IN: Rams | COMMENTS: 3 Comments

After getting cut from the Cleveland Browns, Tony Temple was invited to the Buffalo Bills mini-camp. With back to back 1000 yard seasons for the Missouri Tigers and 4.47 speed Tony has a good shot at making an NFL club in 2008. Temple was ranked 33rd on the nfldraftcountdown list of running backs in the 2008 NFL Draft.

Zacrey Atterberry from Lindenwood Signs with Chicago Bears

AUTHOR: stlvinnie | IN: Rams | COMMENTS: None Yet

Zacrey Atterberry P from Lindenwood University signed with the Chicago Bears on Tuesday as a rookie free agent. Zacrey can really boom the ball and it is great to see a local player from an NAIA school get a chance in the NFL. Brad Maynard is the Chicago Bears current punter. Brad is 34 and averaged 41.8 yards per kick, with a 37.4 yard net average in 2007. Brad was 25th in the league in average and 16th in net average. Sounds like Zacrey will have a shot. Let’s wish him luck. If you have any pictures of Zacrey please [...]

St. Louis Rams Sign 12 Rookie Free Agents

AUTHOR: stlvinnie | IN: Rams | COMMENTS: None Yet

The St. Louis Rams agreed to terms with 12 rookie free agents on April 28th. I heard the names of many of these players before the draft and during the late rounds. The Rams almost made Marc Magro Mr. Irrelevant. Once again the Rams are looking at production. These players simply made plays in college. I am a big fan of these pick ups. I believe camp is going to be very interesting. I do not think there will be many free passes given to veteran players in 2008. Are the Rams actually improving? If you are a fan of [...]

ESPN Franchise Rankings St. Louis Rams #111

AUTHOR: stlvinnie | IN: Rams | COMMENTS: None Yet

The 2008 ESPN franchise rankings have been released and the St Louis Rams are coming in at #111. We would also like to point out that Ramblinfan.com has been mentioned in the on-line version of the article. I don’t know what is more surprising the fact that we were able to get into the article or the fact that there are 2 coaches ranked worse than Scott Linehan! Sorry that was a cheap shot but we had to take it. We also had more issues with the Rams over the weekend. The Rams Draft Day Party was from 1PM-5PM CST. [...]
