GO RAMS!

We deserve to go to the Super Bowl, the Saints had their share of calls in their favor and home field advantage both times they played us this season. That was not a game deciding play--anyone can blame it on the officiating in any given game. Did you see the KC/Patriots game...a lot of stuff went uncalled... they were letting them play, as they should this time of year.

This is what RAMS coach, Sean McVay said:

“I’m not going to sit here and say there clearly wasn’t a little bit of contact before that ball actually arrived,” Rams coach Sean McVay said Monday. “But whether he catches it or not, there’s a lot of things that go into that. ... I feel bad for when it occurred in the framework of the game, but I thought (Saints coach) Sean (Payton) said it best: There’s a lot of other opportunities, and there’s a lot of things that do dictate and determine the outcome of the game.”

And what about this:

"the Rams couldn’t understand how the refs didn’t call Saints linebacker A.J. Klein’s apparent grab of Jared Goff’s facemask on the Rams’ previous drive. A penalty would have given a first down to the Rams at the New Orleans 1, putting them in prime position to take a 24-20 lead with a touchdown with 5:03 to play."

I'm sorry but what a bunch of spoiled brats we have become. If football causes such mental anguish and emotional trauma, the loss of enjoyment of life, give it up. It's your idol and you are far too fragile to take in the game.

Couldn't agree more.
