Hey everyone.

My name's Tom and I wondered if you could help me with a project I'm working on. I'm currently doing a university study on the Rams franchise with a lot of focus on the move/return to LA in 2016.

I was hoping to be able to speak with a few fans one-to-one to ask them about their own personal feelings about the move and their opinions on it e.g. Are you happy they're back in LA, did you want them to stay in St Louis, does it not matter as long as they're still 'The Rams'? Ideally, I would set-up some online video interviews where I could chat to you and just ask you a few questions about it. If anybody here could help me out with it I'd really appreciate it. It's all completely free, anonymous and shouldn't take any longer than half an hour of your time.

If anyone is interested at all I'd be really grateful if you could let know either by replying here or dropping me a private message (even if you don't want to do the video interview but would be happy for me to send you a couple of questions.)

Thanks everyone!

P.S, its not my intention to start any heated debate or arguments here at all so I'm happy if people would rather not reply and send me a private message instead.

Once you are vetted by the moderators here, I would certainly do it.

You are definitely on the right forum for this topic... :lol2:

If you need a non-LA/STL based fan for your study (I am Canadian actually...), I don't mind helping. Just let us know once the mods are all good with ya!

I had asked him (Tom190797) to PM me with clarification and intentions but never heard back from him.
Elvis must have had a next level conversation to allow the post to show on the forum.
If not then he's not vetted.
It seems harmless but proceed at your own risk.

He sent me an email asking if he could post here. I can’t say I’ve vetted him but my sense is he’s legit. But maybe don't tell him you mother's maiden name right away.

As a new user, he has restricted privileges, i have to check whether or not that incudes PMs...

The PM I sent him this morning is still unread so perhaps not.

Tom, respond to your PMs please. You will find a wealth of data, experience, passion, and knowledge here for your research. It’s yours if you are legit.

I'd like to know which university he's representing, if and how the information will be published and who the information gathered is intended to reach.

Tom, feel free to answer here.

As a guy here with a heavy research background, I feel the same. Seems like an interesting study. I would like to know more.
