Let Me Tell You A Little Bit about Who I Am - @Kevin_Payne

Kevin, I have to say how refreshing it is to have a guy like you on our team. I’m really impressed with how in touch with fans you are. To me that’s what it’s all about. You now join Mike Karney as my favorite Rams. I wrote up story a while back on TST about Mike Karney and how great he treated my family. My wife took 2 of our Nephews to his football camp in Seattle last year and he treated them like life long best friends. Thanks Kevin, I think I can speak for everyone on TST when I say we really, really, really appreciate this stuff, please keep it up.

bdemartin I must truly agree with your statement this is what’s it’s all about. Mr. Kevin Payne big ups and I’m really looking forward to your first season with the Rams.

I’m so excited you are a part of the Rams. I need to know, what kind of bowling scores are we talking about here?

Welcome not only to the Rams but to St. Louis! I hope you enjoy both.

St. Louis has been somewhat of a bowling town. We use to have the International Bowling Museum right outside of Busch Stadium but was relocated to inside the International Bowling Campus in Arlington, Texas this past January. It had been located here in St. Louis until November ’08.

I look forward to seeing you play along with our other safeties. We need good players like yourself to bring respectability back to our defense. Slowly but surely the Rams are trying to rebuild both their defense and their offense. So you’re basically on the ground floor of the Rams rebuilding and at only 26 I hope you have a long and lustrous career here.

Go Rams!

I gotta new favorite Ram!

man, ur the coolest!

every summer I go to ocean city and rent one and they let you take them way out in the ocean and its so awesome on a rough day when theres big waves out there to get some nice air off of. And I rode right by some dolphins 2 summers ago which was dope but I was worried id hit one lol

And Kevin, I hope you ignore that it even happened. You just can’t account for the occassional crackpot. Your posts here and read and appreciated by all.

I can whip up some mean bar-b-que pork ribs and glazed shrimp….but you won’t see me tailgating at the dome, cuz I’m in Cali.

I love to cook…but you’d probably whip my ass at bowling unless it’s on the Wii.

I also love anything with 4 (or two) wheels that goes fast.

Welcome to the Rams. You are already one of my favorite players. I don’t think anything brings a fan closer to his team tham meeting the players. I look forward to watching you play in a Ram’s jersey. Good luck

The fact that you can not be bluffed in a poker game is damn good, but I wonder if that skill translates to diagnosing a bluff in a game.
How would you say your ability to read play action is????

With that said, you’re lucky I live in Cali, otherwise I would have to prove this premise wrong. I love it when people throw money at me because they want to catch me bluffing. Yet, the ultimate satisfaction is showing them a card only to wonder what else was under there.
Cheers

a big badass
It will be welcomed if you bring the payne!

Sometimes I look for game used stuff and thought since Kevin was being cool with the fans, maybe I’d check on something he wore. Holy smokes! But you know what I love the most? …“displays tremendous use”

Why do I look for game used stuff? Well why would you pay $300 at the NFL store for a new jersey when you could pay $100 less and get one that someone actually wore in a game? I haven’t bought from these folks but I have from others. They have the same interior markings.

True, you don’t get your star player for 3 bills but I think the game stuff is a lot more intersting. I limit myself to only select players that I respect too, so that cuts it down for me even further.

Anyway – kinda shocked at how much they want for a Payne. I admit I didn’t know he was in such demand.

Nice of you to get in touch with the fans. It reminds us that you are people too.
With you and OJ our safeties will make all other fans forget about “Revis Island” since we now have “House of Payne” & “Atogwe’s Atoll”.
Again welcome and thank you for getting in touch with us.

are you the coolest athlete on earth? I have never seen a player reach out to the fans like this. Let me know your jersey number cuz it’s a done deal.

Its awesome that you are reaching out to the fans like this. Thanks a lot and I look forward to watching you on game day.

Hope you’re our “Pocket Aces” because we’re getting sick of “7-2”
