New To Forum

[Raminator]

Hey Ram buddies. I am new to this forum and thought I would introduce myself. I have heard talk of this 50+ club. While not officially a member I have been a Rams fan for well over 50 years (oops, telling my age again).
In fact, while growing up in So. Calif I actually got a chance to meet and get autographs from Roman Gabriel, Deacon Jones and I think Dick Bass. Being a dumb kid at the time I probably traded them for candy or something cause I haven't seen them in years.

I have been lurking daily on that "OTHER" board and could never see the point to sign up just to get ridiculed, and called names so glad I found this one. Sounds like a lot of knowledgeable fans here. I look forward to reading all your posts and putting in my two cents worth every now and then. My primary love is the Rams but I am also a Nashville Predators hockey fan as Tennessee is where I am living now.

Sorry to be long winded, see you in another post. GO RAMS!!

Ah, Welcome mate! Good to have some old school members join the forum!! What part of cali are you from?

 

[Raminator]

Thanks for the welcome. I was born and raised in Los Angeles. Don't think it was very far from the Coliseum. Even though I was that close, I have never made it to a Rams game yet but I am plannining on going to opening day this year at the Ed. Can't wait!!

Ya, the Preds are the closest team that I can actually call a home town team now, and there is no way I am rooting for the Titans!!

I've currently got addresses in 3 different cities, it affects your loyalties. I respect the Titan hate though, hate them from the old AFC Central days. St Louis is my hometown so I root for the Rams but I'm a lifelong Steeler fan.

Also, my favorite writer is from your neck of the woods, I'm sure you're familiar with Clay Travis.

Born and raised myself in LA, then time in Nashville and now back out West for me. Welcome, my friend.

 

[Raminator]

Thanks for the Welcome Hammer.

Just knowing who Roman Gabriel is gives away your age...was one of my favorite players as kid.

 

[Raminator]

Ya I know. I vaguely remember him be a giant of a man but I was just young at the time but still old enough to know who "My Boys" were gonna be.

 

[HammerDown]

Most of those guys were in Hollywood acting when they weren't playing, weren't they?

 

[Raminator]

I'm not sure. I remember Roman doing some acting in the old days and I know there has been a few more thru the years.

 

[HammerDown]

Yeah, and Dave "Deacon" Jones too. That was one bad man.

 

[Raminator]

Ya, that Head Slap move that he had rang more then a few bells.

Looks like you'll be eligible for the 50+ club in about two years. I am also the presidente. If we are all here in that timeframe will address your induction then. So once again, welcome to the Rams pages and enjoy yourself.
