Vitt rid of Martz!!!

Monday, October 31st, 2005

179 yards!! We all knew it could be done… we all knew Jackson had it in him if Martz would just give him the ball 25 times in a game… well Martz didn’t but Vitt did. The Rams win was Ugly but hey, it was a win. Special teams helped us rather than hurt us, [...]

“I’ve become a distraction”

Wednesday, October 26th, 2005

On Monday Martz said “I have to divorce myself of this. It???s not fair to these people. I have become a distraction for them.???
On Tuesday Martz gives an interview, that appears in the national media on Wednesday (read my first entry from today for the whole story), in which he rips the team management and [...]

No… really?

Wednesday, October 26th, 2005

As shocking as it may be to you all. Apparently Martz thinks that he cant work with Ziggy…. But, I am sure his sitting out the rest of the year has nothing to do with that. Here’s the story according to ESPN

ST. LOUIS — A day after announcing he’d miss the rest of the season [...]

Martz out for the Year!

Monday, October 24th, 2005

The story as told by ESPN : St. Louis Rams head coach Mike Martz will not coach the team for the rest of the season.
Medical advisors have told Martz, who is home resting and receiving treatment for a bacterial infection of the heart valve, that his condition will not allow him to return to the [...]

I was RIGHT!

This is ridiculous… Little did I know my post from last week would turn out to be prophetic. Apparently Martz tried to phone in a suggestion during the Rams surprising win on Sunday. I do find one part of this story unbelievable though. There is no way the play Martz wanted to call a running [...]

This just in…

Friday, October 21st, 2005

We have unconfirmed reports that Mike Martz phoned the team from the hospital 5 minutes into the first quarter. We have not been able to ascertain what effect this may or may not have on the St. Louis Rams being out scored 45-3 over the next two plus quarters before a meaningless Rams TD to [...]

Wow….

Tuesday, October 18th, 2005

What a night… forget the Rams for a minute… have you ever seen ANYTHING like Pujols’ home run last night? I mean that was AMAZING. The single best sports moment of my life. I’m pretty sure I heard the intercom come on in the stadium last night saying “Would the hitter who just stole the [...]

Martz expected to be out… at least for a while.

Monday, October 10th, 2005

590 the Fan is reporting that the Rams will have a 5 p.m. press conference in which they are expected to announce that Martz will be leaving the Rams, at least for a while. Apparently his health is not going to allow him to continue being the head coach. No one apparently knows whether this [...]

Its late….

Monday, October 10th, 2005

Its late, I just got home from Tulsa, and I am TIRED. There is too much for me to possibly cover quickly but here are the topics I will cover tomorrow:
St. Louis Rams LOSE to the Seattle Seahawks… at HOME… to SEATTLE!
Cardinals sweep!! Astro’s win in 18 setting up rematch of NLCS from last [...]

Lots to cover…

Friday, October 7th, 2005

Ok well this week has been a busy one in St. Louis sports. The Cardinals are up 2 – 0 and look to finish off the sweep in San Diego on Saturday. For the life of me I cant figure out why Morris is starting over Suppan who ended up with a few more wins [...]
