Reading these posts makes you wonder how anyone became a RAMS fan...especially, if you started in the Georgia era.

Being a RAMS fan must be like getting a disease. It hits you and then you're sick.

alas, that stretch when the rams rolled the dice on washed-up pro bowl qbs at the end of their careers, hoping for one last hurrah, namath, jones, bartkowski, none started more than a handful of games...

Demoff said today they are looking into grass, but may default to turf.

In the one real world application that I know of, results of attempts to grow grass (hybrid) under Forsyth Barr's ETFE roof have been . . . mixed. Granted, different location and different technology could yield different results

. . .we are currently wasting more than that level of ratepayers' treasure over time on: several specialist groundsmen, specialist mowing machines, turf aeration, watering and fertiliser systems, the monitoring of ambient light spectrum and levels, roof washing to let the right light in, under-roof dew suppression sprayers for the same thing, wind-speed, temperature, relative humidity, and grass-growth monitoring to determine how many days or weeks (depending on weather) are required for The Turf to recover between events.

OMG, what an awesome pic. Georgia was sooo very young in that photo.

Has there ever been another female owner?

I am not sure which picture gives me more indigestion? Pig Vomit getting kissed or the Mud bowl. I just want to delete both of those images forever.

Has there ever been another female owner?

In the offseason between the 2011 and 2012 seasons, there were 2 ...

1) Virginia Halas McCaskey of the Chicago Bears - she inherited the franchise when her father, George Halas, passed away in 1983.
2) Carol Davis of the Oakland Raiders - she inherited the team, along with her son Mark, when her husband Al Davis passed away in 2011.

Seven NFL teams have women as principal owners or co-owners: the Titans, Lions, Giants, Bears, Raiders, Buccaneers and Bills.

Georgia Frontiere was the first woman to take control of a league franchise... If you can call it control.

Onetime Bel-Air home of Georgia Frontiere priced at $45 million
Neal J. Leitereg, L.A. Times, May 4, 2015

The onetime Bel-Air estate of late St. Louis Rams owner Georgia Frontiere, which sold for $38 million in an off-market deal in March, has been listed for sale at $45 million. That’s more than a 15.5% price increase in roughly two months and nearly $26 million more than what it went for in 2011.... Frontiere purchased the estate in 1977 for $760,000, records show. Nearly 30 years later, she sold the home to a developer for about $9 million, according to The Times.
