Here's a track guy that did okay. And Tutu isn't a track guy, he's a football player who played 3 years at Louisville before being drafted by the Rams:

Thanks for getting this thread back on track... or off track... or... you know what I mean.

Lotsa successful NFLers out there (tons actually!) that are:

A. Fast
B. 5'11" and 181 lbs (like Ron Brown was).

Not too many NFL stars in play today who are fast, but at TuTu's dimensions though.

We'll see if Liam Coen, as stated, can craft some plays for Atwell.
I can hear the PlayCall now:
CLOWNS CLUSTER RIGHT, LOVE-OF-THE-GAME, DWARF LEFT FLY.............ON TWO!!
I mean, it might not be Liam Coen's primary playcall for TuTu....but I bet it will be on his short-list, eh!!

"Yay! A Rams player I don't like is failing!"

- Fans?

Fans = Fanatics so the above is probably true. Some fans are more fanatical than others.

You make it seem like people enjoy seeing Tutu fail. I disagree. IMO, the same fans would be cheering loudly if he played up to expectations and did it in a classy, humble way.

I don't think any Rams fans WANT to see Tutu fail or enjoy seeing it either. Honestly, IMO, Tutu hasn't done anything on the field to be optimistic about and his "off the field" antics aren't exactly endearing to his critics either.

There have a few Rams players I haven't liked since I have become a Rams fan many many years ago. Not all were good players or good people either.

It's ok to not like a player and still be a fan of the team. For me 2 that come to mind are Lawrence Phillips and Jared Cook.

I don't dislike Tutu. He just comes across as an "entitled, obnoxious jerk" whose ability to run faster than the other kids got him this far and now is having trouble dealing with the critics for the first time in his life.

Most people hate it when other less-smart folks try to put words in their mouths!
Being one of those, I would ask you AR to kindly NOT infer a lie by saying that I have written that I want to see TuTu fail.

I have said repeatedly that NO Rams fan wants to see Los Ramos lose out on a Second Round pick, even including a Creed Humphrey@#57 advocator like me.

You use the unsavory techniques taught in scorched-earth legal training for the purpose of winning arguments.....and they are really stale & tiresome.....& certainly uncivil.

You claim to have "a stalker"........don't flatter yourself.
You just keep coming up like a bad penny AR.

Hey... to each, his own. I just find the "That guy sucks--- oh, wait.... he scored? GO PREVIOUSLY WRITTEN OFF GUY!!!!" method a bit odd, that's all.

I didn't imply anything of the sort (imply is the correct word, by the way). In fact, I didn't say anything specifically about you.

If I were, I'd say that you're the type who will repeat juvenile jokes about a player, but will then turn on a dime and cheer him on if he succeeds. As stated above, you're welcome to take that approach. I find it odd.

Your attempts at making pointed comments about lawyers such as myself (not a personal attack at all, right?) are so comically lame that I find myself just chuckling at you like one might chuckle at the adorable folly of a small child trying to pronounce a word with more than three syllables.

You claim to have "a stalker"........don't flatter yourself.

And yet, if one were to search for the terms "lawyer," "Florida" or "hall monitor" they'd find multiple posts in which you addressed me, rather than my comments. How curious.

Anyway... my son (who always seem to get news before me) just told me Aaron Donald has agreed to a new contract. So... bigger fish to fry!

Let's keep this thing on the rails. PM has a purpose. I'm sure you 2 can get it resolved there.

We are here to enjoy ourselves and the back and forth is not enjoyable. All opinions are welcome.

[CanuckRightWinger]

Not enjoyable.
Agreed.
