Turf Show Radio (S3E4) recap - smile the pain away

  It had been more than two months since Van and I fired up the ol' talkbox for Turf Show Radio. Yes, it had been too long.

  Thanks to T.Ram, buckeyefan55 (we'll get the intro right next time), Douglas M and maybe the best caller ever who must remain anonymous for the legend to remain intact.

  Breaking down this wacky show after the jump.

Star-divide

0:21 - Is that my voice on the TalkShoe intro? We may never know...

2:02 - Turf Show Radio is the HBO of podcasts. Kinda.

3:15 - We get started in earnest with the Jabara Williams news.

6:00 - Van applies some sanity to the personnel moves. He is summarily executed.

11:04 - Van singled out Justin Bannan as an example of the up and down nature of Rams performances.

19:32 - The Rams are the suburban office complex of the NFL.

27:30 - Is it too late for the Rams to find an identity?

30:04 - The Returnof4eva himself, T.Ram hops on the show and fills us in on which tv shows he's been watching to avoid thinking about the Rams.

30:43 - Is this team worse than the 2009 Rams who went 1-15?

37:14 - As a Rams fan not in the St. Louis geographic area, how do you deflect the belittlement of other NFL fans?

40:30 - I hate talking about rappers with T. because it makes me feel old. I used to hit the clubs. Now, it's all Piano Man.

41:11 - Are the Rams the worst team in the NFL? Van's analogy is awesome. And it includes Sausalito tile patterns.

42:20 - Don't be the McClung!

44:20 - How hot is Spags' seat?

49:20 - T. goes on record saying we'll win 6 games. Would that be enough to keep Spags?

51:16 - buckeyefan55 ruins the soft intro, and I make it worse by reading when I should be listening. I take responsibility for muffing this one.

52:17 - If Spags gets fired, "gun to your head" (why are you so violent, buck?) - who do you want as your head coach? Mega Man or an old pair of shoes?

1:02:46 - 3-4 vs. 4-3? (Great question, buck)

1:07:35 - Between the Rams and Ohio St., poor buck has had a tough year as a football fan.

1:08:30 - Douglas M joins. Teach me how to Douglas!

1:08:50 - Josh McDaniels anyone?

1:11:55 - How much blame do the position coaches deserve? And what moves could/should be made on that front?

1:17:55 - Douglas drops the literary selections of the week for TSTers. And I drop Lord Jim, setting up the perfect analogy for Van...until we get sidetracked by Snickers and Pizza. Or is it Snickers Pizza?

1:19:14 - "Y'all can't do fat like we do fat."

1:20:15 - Proof that the show has gone too long: Douglas and I start dropping anecdotes that need not to be dropped - "Butt naked at a McDonalds."

1:22:33 - Thus begins maybe the best call in the history of Turf Show Radio.

1:24:02 - It was just barely too short. We almost made it to the pinnacle.

1:27:14 - Could next week's watchlist not include LSU-Bama? No, it could not not.

1:30:55 - Instead of just cutting me off, Van let's me talk about soccer. Horrible, horrible idea.

1:32:40 - I love you, Mario. Don't ever change.

Again, I cannot apologize profusely enough for going on this tangent, but Balotelli is a gift to all mankind. Enjoy it.

Funny you should appear

I’m watching Foloes highlights right now. He’s creeping back up my board.

What a waste. He could have been a college beast.

Yup Criner shows flashes and I really like Tutogi now too

    But his other weapons look alot like ours have this season. Foles is definitely tooling up gor the NFL though. Some questionable decisions still but who doesn’t. TJ McDonald looked good because of 2 incomplete routes by the WRs on the tape I watched.

I'd LOVE to grab Foles if he drops into the 5th

backup of the future on the cheap

In the fifth, hell yes, I was thinking Foles could step in and we wouldn't lose anything .

      I don’t think we can expect this kind of thinking from our current FO though. I’m kind of used to not being on the same page with them.

Scary words! Honestly, if any body ever plays that card again, I’m just going to let them know: the music kids listen to these days will make your soul explode. Just enjoy your old age and enjoy the disintegration of the country with a sip and a smile.
