They dont really haev any players that are top star quality (off the field) that would get tons of people from other places buying their jerseys. Fans are fickle, and they will buy whomever they see on TV, and Until Holy holds out or shoots someone, his jersey sales will be shit. Stephen Jackson could be the guy to change that though.

Look at the top jersey sales, all shit boxes

Vick
Owens
Moss (Although he is seemingly changed)


LT sells well because he broke records and the powder blues are fucking sweet.

Rams need a new uniform scheme.

Yes, the #2 market in the country that has been unable to land a team since then.

They won a superbowl and went to a second which is more then a lot of people can say.

As for Merch Sales, you have the historical favs, then who's hot now... I mean the raiders can go 0-16 and will be one of the tops every year. That being said, I don't know if they ever changed it, but Merch sales used to be split evenly... so if the Rams sell 10mil or 1mil they get the same as every other team.

could be worse... I assume you're in LA? in which case I understand your being upset... see: old Baltimore Colts fans... where they indy colts are refered to as "INDY" on the score board instead of COLTS when they play in Baltimore.

just think... it was almost the Connecticut Patriots that won 3 super bowls or before that James Otherwine bought the team looking to move them to St. Louis.

Simply she isn't a "bad owner".

Everyone talks about how they left the #2 market, yet it's 10? years later... maybe more? and they still don't have a team there...

Clearly she made the right business move and they appeard in 2 superbowls and won one of them.

Can't agree she's a horrible owner...

But, if I was a Rams fan who had my team ripped away I can see being upset.

I don't see how the fact that LA has yet to get another team means it was a good business move to leave.

Petrino is an idiot....why would any recruit want to go to Ark and play for a coach that is going to bail on him.

The Falcons are fucked hardcore, their franchise is falling apart.

You would think so, but Nick Saban hasn't had a problem recruiting people to Alabama who did something close to the same thing as Petrino.

I think this hurt Petrino more then it did Sabin.

At least Sabin waited until the end of the year before he left.

Coaches get fired mid season all the time. Why can't coaches leave in the middle of a season? Every employee in the NFL, owners included, knows the NFL is a business first and a sport second. Petrino saw an opportunity to get the fuck out of a God forsaken situation in Atlanta and he took it. Don't crucify Petrino for looking out for himself first because Arthur Blank and everyone else on the Falcons are doing the same thing.

So what is the point of signing a contract , and leaving midway through the FIRST season ? OK ..so things weren't going well in Atlanta , the whole Vick thing..losing games cuz he can't coach NFL guys,whatever. At least be a man about it and confront your team..and wait till the season ends. He was a selfish bitch is all what it boiled down to..you can't really defend that aspect.

Again this is a BUSINESS. You can have your preconceived notions about being a man and honor and all that fairy tale stuff that doesn't exist in the business world. The fact is Petrino was in a shitty situation, and a job he would rather have appeared for him to take. Had he waited til the end of the season, the offer wouldn't be there anymore. All you guys that are giving him shit are really gonna tell me that if you had an opportunity to get a better job with a better environment that's better suited to your abilities, you wouldn't take it because you have to be loyal to your co-workers? Bullshit. He has every right to take this job just like players have every right to hold out for a new contract or sign with a different team and just like every owner or GM has the right to fire coaches or trade players whenever they want to.

Listen..I get it. I'm aware that 9 out of 10 coaches or players never honor a contract. The thing I didn't like was that he bailed on his players without being a man about it and telling them face to face. I mean right after a monday night game too he just bails and starts doing that hog dance or whatever that is down there. Couldn't he take the job, make the team aware of it and coach till the end of the season? I don't know what stipulations they have but just the way he did it, makes him look like a biatch.

The contract thing doesn't matter because coach's get fired with years remaining on their contracts all the time

Been thinking about this whole "who'll beat the Pats" thing.

Wouldn't it be sad if the Pats get beaten by the winless Dolphins?

Sadly, I can see it happening. The Dolphins have some way of beating them in the past (HOW is beyond me, don't ask me HOW they could possibly beat them now). That and this undefeated thing vs. the winless season just reaks of "watch the planets align on THIS EXACT DATE!!"

Yeah, it would be so fucking sad, but it's something that could happen (no joke).

or the jets or the giants... the Giants have the best shot, they're a good team playing at home.

The Pats always stuggle against Miami IN Miami, they've always had their way with them at home (even when the Phins were good and the Pats weren't)

losing to any of their upcoming opponents would each have a pretty good storyline; jets caught them with video camera, dolphins 0-14 against 14-0, giants last game of the season. i dunnoooe

I'm sorry. Make Petrino out to be the bad guy all you want, but lets not act like the Falcons arent loaded with a bunch of ignorant bitches with mediocre skill and know listening skills what so ever. I'm sure the Falcons made it very difficult for him.

Not even counting your QB play, MTH, Brees picked your D apart and our THIRD string RB ran for 100 yards against them..

Also, I was talking about games like the Jags game anyway, shithead..
