Re: Last Chance Saloon.

Good job. Very well thought out.

It's ironic that a FA market that can't deliver value and a draft that won't solve all the Ram problems this year will likely result in Linehan's demise at the end (or sooner) of his third year. Like a president who inherits a sliding economy from his predecessor and gets blamed for it, Linehan, in spite o his flaws, came into an organization on the slide, and will likely be the lightning-rod for its failures.

As for Bruce/Little- if the Rams showed any organizational acumen, letting these two go would rankle few fans. But since the cupboard is bare, we fans hang on to these two past-prime performers, like a battered wife to her abusive husband because she has no where else to go.

This will be a 2-3 season turnaround, IMO. Too bad for Linehan.
