I can’t remember a worse off season than this one. And it should be super exciting but it’s nothing but bad news.
Just remember how it was during 2018 and how pumped we were about the season.
It would actually feel weird if the uniforms cool at this point.

Perhaps the Rams are just punking the punk. I'm certain they are going to pay unless Gurley breached some part of his contract over those last 20 games and the Rams are going to take him on. BUT, the childishness arrogance of him cutting off friends / players on the team because management is doing what they're doing is a real sign of his character . With friends like him who needs friends?

I can't wait to see AD square off and plant that Gurley dude into the turf. RedBirdShit.

I was thinking that too. A little "pay back" for being a locker room distraction the last year or so. Also might tell us why he wasn't used as much last year.

Maybe we now know the REAL Todd Gurley...He's a little tea pot...

It's not selfish to wanna get paid what you're owed but i can't imagine the Rams not following the contract language.

As for not talking to his friends on the Rams, Gurley's probably just joking around, seriously doubt that's true...

I dunno E, they are quoting him saying this in the article.

“I still ain’t got my money, so it’s really, forget the Rams right now. I don’t even care about them,” Gurley said, via Rams Wire. “I told my ex-teammates that they can’t even text me or call me until I get my money. As soon as I get my money, then I’ll be cool with everybody else".

“I don’t know what their reason is. And the worst thing about it is they know they have to pay me too. Apparently probably just using the COVID thing as an excuse. Or they probably ain’t got no money to be paying anybody. They’ve got that stadium being built right now. All I know is, come June 1, I better have my money.”


Or what?

You're giving him a lot of credit that might not be due. That said, if the Rams are trolling him, like they seem to be doing to us about the uni's, then you can't blame him I guess. I imagine he's already gone through the first multi million dollar installment while not doing jack to earn it,, so he's possibly hungry.
But his personal friends?

Seems like there is definitely some bad blood going on there.

And like a specified amount of time ... after the NFL recognizes the signing, not after a verbal agreement is leaked to the media....? Do NFL contracts have a withdraw-the-offer/acceptance clause within a certain period of time?

I doubt that the Rams have done anything illegal.


And has Gurley even taken a physcial for the Falcons yet?

Isn't that the issue? That depending on whether or not each of these guys signs and/or passes a physical determines how much the Rams have to pay out? Waiting until the last possible moment to pay out the bonuses may actually save the team some money.
