Re: Rams aren't flying high behind Bulger

To be honest, I think you have to expect these kinda comments.

these serve 2 purposes;

1) vocal praise of current QB, help his play.

Martz backing bulger over the last 2 years has seen his play improve,

2) makes himself feel justified about cutting warner,

Its no longer about "trying to get one over kurt", kurt is lone gone and no onger a thorn in martz's side, so too speak, but other people and plenty of them, are still not convinced he made the right choice. He is simply tring to justify his decision, too himself more than anyone else I guess, Nobody likes to be wrong, I mean NOBODY, you try telling a smoker or a drinker thry are wrong too do it, how many would say "I agree I'll never do it again" neither kurt or martz will ever stand up and say, "If I hadn't said that or done this" and admit some fault.

is there a possibilty of another solution?

1) he wasn't even thinking about trying to upset kurt, it was just a quick comment made to back his QB and nothing else?

2) an atempt to bring Marc out of kurts shaddows even further, was this affecting him in a big way and martz was just trying to let bulger know he is the man?

Warner maybe wasn't clearly martz's "guy", but its only rams fans that are having these thoughts and discussions, I have yet too meet a non rams fan that doesn't think we made the right choice (if you have they are certainly in the vast minority). Especially those who actually earn their money in the profession (writers, coachs who weren't queing for his signature, sports commenters), is it possible that they were right, for one big reason? Having both these guys on the team would have done the locker room morale a great deal of harm. Whatever happened between these guys meant a parting of ways had too happen. (this is of course totally not thinking of how kurt was playing, because most think that kurts play didn't drop in quality, the teams play did, I am not going into that though) Who has too go? Simple. The guy has has the power to get rid of the other, regardless of who that is, it happened to be martz.

I know we are all different and I respect that, but for me worrying about kurt is unproductive and is in the past. I dont think our record would be any better today, if kurt was behind the helm. I am now making the choice to look forward and think about the present team that we have playing for us today, not yesterday and I will try my damn hardest not to reply to kurt posts again, even if this didn't strt out as one nick I know, qb posts have a habit of turning into kurt warner posts.

I gotta move on.
