    STL, despite the greatest show on turf era with the Super Bowl, ruined the Rams. The Rams were always contenders in LA. They've been losing out there in STL for too long. It's gonna take a lot to become a consistent contender again.

    I can't believe Jeff Fisher even let him start. He isn't goo. He's never been good. Goff is your #1 pick that they traded all of their potential future for. Ride or die with him

    So 1 noteworthy drought in 50ish seasons. The last 5 years was a Major League teardown by Georgia to facilitate a move out of town so I don't count that. The Rams were bad ass with the fearsome foursome, Hollywood crossover players, Jack Youngblood and Eric Dickerson later on. Among others. Consistently in the playoffs and NFC title games. A huge attendance draw and a lot of good teams.

    The Rams haven't had a winning season since 2003 and that's some Midwest bullcrap

    Moving into Anaheim Stadium was the beginning of the end, although it took a while.

    The 30 mile out suburban stadium doesn't work in LA like it does in other markets.

    They moved out of the Coliseum, ditching both LA proper and county. Then the Raiders moved in and took marketshare during the rise of NWA. The perfect storm to send them into relative irrelevance. Such a fall from grace.

    That was Carroll's doing. He thought he had a sweetheart deal on some land near Anaheim Stadium on which the city fathers later reneged after his death.

    :laff: @ the Rams always being contenders in LA.
    In reality, looks like the Rams moved back to LA and picked right up where they left off, on the bottom of the Niners' shoes.
    From Montana to Young to...Blaine Gabbert? :facepalm:
    That game was disgraceful.

    Drafting Goff + starting Keenum = Jeff Fisher job security for at least 3 more years
    Believe that.
    Rams' situation is extraordinarily shitty because with that dumbass RGIII trade the Redskins actually aided the Rams' rebuild..into this.
    I apologize to ESPN, they absolutely look like the 28th overall team in the league, hell, worse.

    The LA Rams scored as many points as the LA Rams have scored in 22 years.

    Uh, they were one of the more competitive teams in the NFL for most of their original stay in LA. Especially through the 70s and 80s.

    We get it. You don't like them. You're a Raider fan.

    Last night was one of the worst performances imaginable. Things need to change. Not long ago the Rams bitch slapped the Raiders 50 to 0. It's one freaking game. Get over yourself.

    Edit: Not that it matters, but Darth's infamous "STOP LYING!" really seems kinda on point. I'll bet you listen to a lot of Max and Marcellus.

    That stung. Prior to yesterday, Raiders were 1-15 vs the NFC the last 4 years and went 0-4 vs the NFC North last year while having a chance to win every game. Don't know why they struggle so much vs the NFC but hoping they can make it 2 wins in a row vs the weak Falcons on Sunday. I have no problem with the Rams....I despise all SF teams in any sport, hate the Patriot$, hate the Steelers, hate the Broncos, and dislike SD/KC(sorry chief).

    Raiders had the ball down 6 at home with like 10 minutes left in the 4th before collapsing. :shrug:

    Petros and Money is the only talk radio show I thoroughly enjoy and often listen to even when I'm not driving.

    I can't listen to anyone on 710. They take themselves and sports way too seriously. The Laker centric convo is so tiring. I get they're the Laker flagship station but they will update us when Kobe takes a dump. All of them are awful. Trudell, Thompson, Mason, "Mo mo", etc.

    And the aforementioned Max and Marcellus...bullies, narcissists, pseudo intillectuals, libtards, and know nothing about LA sports. Any possible way they can start talking about rap music, boxing, the Lakers, race issues and themselves, they'll do it. Worst show in history.

    A bunch of middle aged guys pretending to be melennials.
