Donald Trump Is at War with America
He sees himself as a wartime president.

I found this a good read. Much needed. Perhaps giving Trump a little too much “3D chess” credit but I think it captures how Trump views the world and his power.

I have never been a big advocate of protests that interrupt sacred spaces, but the fact that the right is 1000x angrier about a protest in a church than a woman murdered by a federal agent is…revealing.

I never understand why people who tout their moderate and centrist credentials aren't directly asked about this.

More playoff wins than Rams had wins over a 3 year stretch from '08-'10 and a few two year stretch during the dark days in the 2000
With the Rams’ victory tonight, Sean McVay tied Hall of Famer Don Shula for the most playoff wins for any coach in NFL history before turning 45 years old (10).

100%. They broke the Rams spirit with that play. I think they could've walked it in. Everyone was stunned.
I think Ben Johnson is going to spend the offseason regretting not going for two at the end of regulation. They gave the Rams everything and needed a miracle play to be in position. Why not take the swing?

The Catch in '99
(Faulk made the 2nd half easy in '01)
OT win after THAT PBU in '18
10 point 4th quarter comeback '21
....light work

In all my years as a Rams fan going back to the GSOT days the Rams have never lost the NFC Championship game in four attempts. Crazy. The 5th one is gonna be the toughest by far.

Up until today Matt Stafford had thrown for multiple TD passes in every playoff game with the Rams. Today he had zero. Rams won. QB wins is a crappy stat.

Rams earned the right to once again prove who the ULTIMATE winner of the NFC West is. Just like in Stafford's first SB run. The Rams revenge tour is STILL on AND.....it could wind up against the PATS in the SB. From a nightmare 4th down to the dream of cold revenge still alive

This is going to come down to the Rams special teams. This is why the Rams signed Mevis but we said SOOO many times that the season would depend on our FG kicker.

If Stafford doesn't go into GOD mode the Rams just got their souls snatched. That's the type of play that hurts a team for YEARS.
