I’m Serious

“Losing to the Bears was not a problem for me. Except for the abominable play of the kick coverage units and the continued dropsy epidemic among what used to be the best receiver corps in the game of American Football, the Rams didn’t do half bad. 11 or 12 penalties, the usual leaky run D, but it seemed like the Rams pretty much showed up to play.
And after all, Da Bears are now 11-2 and ready to lock up HFATTP. No, that ain’t a rap group with 43-pound tennis shoes and stank bref’. It’s Home Field Advantage Throughout The Playoffs. And next to getting injury-free through a first week playoff bye, it’s the most important advantage a team can take toward getting into the Super Bowl. (Note: Last year was the prototypical exception to this philosophy. The Bus was goin’ home to Detroit no matter WHERE the Steelers had to play to get him there. There was no HFATTP last season.)
So I can’t get steamed at the Rams anymore this week. I’m all out of steam. I’m so un-steamed I couldn’t lick a stamp and an envelope on the same day.
But let me tell you one thing right here:
If the Rams think they can come back to California, show up in that misbegotten slime-pit in Oakland where Al Davis puts on his Sunday freak-shows, and expect any sympathy from me and about a million Ramfans in Los Angeles if they lose to the dog-butt, stinking RAIDERS this week, then brother, do they have another think coming.
No matter what.
I don’t care if Steven’s cramps are back. I don’t care if Marc Bulger’s brain is farting like a pack mule. I don’t care if Linehan’s pop-eyes bug ALL the way out and bounce down the sideline. The Rams ARE NOT, repeat: NOT allowed to lose to Al Davis. NEVER.
I will personally house-invasion Rams Park and put a chicken suit and a foul, rancid hunk of Limburger cheese in every single coach and player’s locker if they don’t find a way to beat the worst team in the world.
I’m serious as a heart attack on this one.
