Ram the cassel gate

Vrabel and Bruschi

I know, I know… it seems stupid to put up photos from a football game with Opening Day just around the corner, but it has been established numerous times that I am running behind on posting to Flickr. So, you get football now and I hope to be caught up by the time baseball starts. That means photos from Opening Day before the Pats open against the Bills in September. Actually, hopefully that means I can get those posted the night of Opening Day. Anyone want to start a pool?

Back to the task at hand, these photos are from the Rams game on October 26, 2008. Matt Cassel getting more comfortable in the line-up, etc. Disappointed that all we saw of Steven Jackson was him walking off the field at halftime wearing sweats since he was injured at the time. What I liked best about this game was it was a nice day. I like the warm games as opposed to ones that seem to have me freezing my arse off or getting soaked. Had to skip the Steelers game to avoid getting rained on the whole time. Too bad since they ended up winning the Super Bowl.

Most of the photos I put up in this set are from the pre-game warm-ups but with a few from in-game action. Tried to go easy on you with the total number. There are also no cheerleader photos in this set. Too bad for you gentlemen since they were decked out in their Halloween costumes for this game. Instead, there are a couple of a cute little guy with his Pops and one of that jackhole security supervisor. If you don’t know the Lensgate story, you might like it. Oh, one of the young girl that belted out a helluva good National Anthem too.

Fear not though, if you make it through this set and leave me a nice comment here or on the photos, I will reward you next week with a set of just the cheerleaders. Sorry ladies, you’ll just have to get along with the nice bum shots of the fellas here in this set. I tried to give you a Welker close-up (and some other dudes). He’s dreamy, right?
