Laughingstock

Laughingstock is what the Rams are at present. I don't think its a fair characterization, but until the team starts to win on the field, its going to continue.

Sportswriters and commentators 'pile on' once the ball starts rolling in a fashion that would make Rodney Harrison blush. I was disgusted listening to a couple of schmucks on St Louis radio Sunday evening berated and ridiculed everything about the Rams. Listening to the venom on the airwaves from St Louis at present gives me another reason to appreciate how people like Devaney and Spagnuolo earn a pretty darn good salary!

I wouldn't put up with that load of feces on any job. I still believe these two fellas will get the organization turned around, and am amazed how many media and fans forget how they all were stating the fact that 'this will take a while' when Devaney assumed full authority of personnel decisions, and again when he hired Spags.

Yes the team sucks at present! That is obvious to all of us. The drastic steps which were taken in the offseason were an admission by Chip Rosenbloom that real, permanent, changes needed to be made. The Achilles heels(both of them) are far from or totally removed from the personnel decision 'loop' . It takes time. Its very ugly now, but real, sustained improvement is on the other side of this struggle!
