Random Ramsdom: 4/1/2010

- So here is the bombshell: reports are coming in that the Rams and Broncos have agreed to trade Steven Jackson and the Rams 2nd round selection (33rd) overall, for Brandon Marshall and and Broncos 1st round choice (11th). I'm not too sure if this is the right move, but I think the timing was right, Jackson wasn't getting any younger and the value for him was arguably the highest it could be. Sam Bradford and C.J. Spiller, anyone?
- Bernie over at STLtoday is saying that some of the interior brass in the front office weren't too happy with Pat Shurmur and that he may be on the hot seat, if Khan is approved or not. Shurmur wasn't exactly the most loved guy on here, but c'mon. He needs at least another year.
- In other, less startling news, the Rams are reportedly O.K. with Sam Bradford's shoulder. He looked fine at the pro day, and if the man who fixed Tom Brady says he is all good, that's fine with me.
- Mike Sando also has a piece on the rise of Sam Bradford in this last month. I'm sorry if you don't want to hear about S.B., but it's probably going to be happening very, very, often.
- Will at Ramsherd takes us back a few years to compare that one guy that nobody every talks about to John Elway.
- Jeff over at Ramsgab has a clarification over the whole Khan-not-buying-the-Rams situation. Why do you have to ruin things for us twitter?
- Could the Redskins set up a dream trade scenario? One can only hope.

i hate to ruin a freakin' awesome April Fool
but my mind can only empathize with my girlfriend last year when I called her at 12:30am April 1st, and said I was in jail after blowing a .12, and her being thrown into a hysteria the likes of which should never be seen again.
The worst part
was I knew it was April Fools day too, and I totally got sucked in… Shakes head lol
The name's Rams, St. Louis Rams.
Argghhh!
You got me! And my other browser tab was open to “Our 10 fave April Fool’s pranks.”
strangely....
….I was almost ok with the terms….just not the picks taken in those spots.
I do see the logic behind the ‘trade SJax when he’s at his highest value’ idea, but I believe you need him on the team, being one of the few players with talent and who gives a damn.
So let’s go out and sign TO! Then we’d have 2 talented players who actually have some drive, dammit.
mlm
we really should sign t.o.
he can be an asshole but a veteran, future HoF receiver is just what bradford needs as a rookie.
oh I disagree
TO is a quarterback killer. It takes a confident vet to deal with his bullshit.
The blind stares of a million pairs of eyes, lookin hard but won't realize, that they'll never see the C. And when I'm rollin by, you can't see me!
That joke...
ruined my day.

nice one ramrod
I had a minor heart attack. It never occured to my fragile brain that someone’s heart is so black that they alter rams news.
Well played, sir.
Well played.
I’m just glad the link was self-explanatory.
THIS year's the year. I hope....
The Other April Fools Rumor
I live in DC and the “rumor” this morning was that the Rams trade their #1 pick for Chris Cooley. Now I like Chris Cooley, I think he’s hilarious 51% of the time, and you should read he’s blog at least once a month but… he’s not worth a #1 pick especially after a season ending broken foot injury. I understand it’s a joke but, its also supposed to FOOL you. ‘Skins fans have this bloated sense of “all our players are awesome and everyone its worth #1 picks in any trade” despite a 4-12 record. It’s annoying… rant complete.
If only it were true
About Shurmur. He needs to find a short pier and take a long walk.
hahahaha
seriously! i can’t believe charlie weis was open and we did nothing, he would have done so well for the rams offense.
And I thought to myself...those lying SOB's
(All the FO’s emphatic denials about trading Jackson).
The jokes that work are always the ones that yank you around the hardest.

This just in:
We all owe ram_rod. Pay back a beyatch! ;-)

Another April Fools hoax
the Niners hiring Matt Millen to be their new GM
Life is a waste of time and time is a waste of life... so lets get wasted all the time and have the time of our lives!
I actually kinda like the deal.
Only five players have averaged 25 and 10 in their playoff careers. One of them, Dirk Nowitzki.
if
we could get CJ Spiller and Sam Bradford we would immediately add 7-10 ppg. All those long runs that SJax had last year were ones that, if he had CJ’s speed, he would have scored. I’ve watched CJ play for 2 years, i’ve seen it, a ridiculous amount of times.
a little late but,
you f-ing a-hole. you got me man and i still don’t think it’s funny. damn you
