I love how everyone is supporting the Vikes

Because the Titans suck and the Vikings are half-decent this year. It's not like it's a hard pick by any means.

They're playing the Titans...

The Titans don't suck! They beat the Lions!

Who said the Lions were any good? They may have Megatron, but he's not gonna supply their running game

Lions are 1-3 and have major discipline issues. I'm pretty sure the Titans winning that game isn't a big deal, and surely isn't proof that they aren't bad. Plus, their starting QB is injured.

Picked Cardinals...am 0-1...

I'm just going to grin and hold up the Rams jersey I'm wearing to the computer screen and assume you know what I mean by doing so.

That you want us to throw it in the paper shredder?

Uh, probably not.

I considered picking the Rams at the last second but decided against it.

You're really funny when you try to be sassy and fail.

First time we've been over .500 since the middle of 2006's season... I'm feeling pretty proud of my team. I can definitely see at least a 4-4 record going into our bye (especially since we've got Miami next on extra rest), and I wouldn't put it beyond them, based on how they perform next week, to give GB or NE (I'd hedge my bets more on the latter) a serious run for their money.

Also, LEGATRON STRIKES AGAIN! That 53-yarder was a chip shot for him, it looked like... also, best comment I saw all night on the conversation on ESPN during the game said that Jay Feely missed that field goal because Greg was warming up on the sidelines and the gale force winds he produced pushed the ball wide left.

I'm still not expecting more than .500 for the season at this point, but I do love the way Jeff Fisher has transformed the team, and it definitely gives me hope... especially with extra 1st round picks for the next two seasons. Of course, RGIII is RGIII, so it's looking like a really great win-win for both sides on that deal.

It was a freaking joke, calm down. You're so uptight about everything Rams related

You're so uptight about me whenever I reply to you. All I did was retort to what you said by saying it wasn't funny or cute, which I would have done whether it was me and the Rams or dishnetkid and the Lions or whatever. Not a fan of the Jets or Cowgirls though, I'd probably support the shredder treatment there tbh.

But seriously, all I did was say that what you said was pretty meh (in my OWN sassy way, because I happen to be that way quite often), and then went on to ramble optimistically about how I'm hopeful about my team's prospects, both short-term and long-term, because we just knocked off the Cards last night and I had a moment of pride at that moment (which, if you're a fan of a team like mine, you covet much more). Heads up for ya: I choose my battles, and any of the older members can tell you that. I sure as heck am NOT going to make one of them some drivel-fest with you just because I love my team and because you're giving off a connotation that you think it's to a point where I feel psychologically compelled to defend them Rams and go all obnoxious fanboy about them whenever anyone posts even a fragment of a sentence about them.

I don't get incited by people dissing my team (if they have an actual reason), or even if they diss my team in general if it's in a not-hugely-dickish or "good jest" way. I AM incited by mindless insults and pretentious attitudes, and with that, I'm nipping this non-skirmish in the bud.

Rams still suck. I kid, I kid.

Any big media teams (Jets, Cowboys) that under perform seem to get a lot of hate. Or maybe its another reason. (Rex Ryan, coughcough)
