OBJ to Saints... anyway?

Thought homeboy was going to wait until after Sunday. Maybe Goodell made a few calls? Wouldn't surprise me.

It would shock the crap out of me. The NFL is a money making machine. Goodell could spend five years in an isolated cave having no contact with the outside world and it would continue to grow at the same pace. One thing that could knock it off its rails (even to a minor degree) would be a tampering scandal or something of the sort involving the league office. The league's newest and perhaps most influential partner, the gambling industry, would sh!t a brick.

They would like it, but it's not critical enough to screw the pooch. It's no longer about the size of the market, but more about the brand. The Rams name is more important than where they are located in today's world at the league level. It may be a different story at the individual franchise level, of course.

It will be so sweet when we meet the Rams in the NFC Championship game and win it at the last second with a bad call.

Sweet karma!

Coulda happened. Although he woulda been happy with OBJ going to help the Packers or Chiefs as well. The Rodgers thing has hurt GB’s chances though.

ever since the rams move to L.A., they have wanted them to win, then their was the missed no call which was the last straw. Rams is one of those franchises that seem to can buy everyone as well off FA market.

How do they have cap room to sign anyone? I thought Loomis was good at cooking the books.
