YIKES!
ST. LOUIS -- An executive with the St. Louis Rams will be reprimanded for leaving a threatening phone message on the voice mail of a St. Louis Post-Dispatch columnist.
The Rams told the Post-Dispatch that team executive Samir Suleiman faces discipline, but declined to say what it would be. A call to the Rams on Wednesday was not returned.
"It's shocking that he would leave a message like that," Rams president John Shaw told the Post-Dispatch. "It's the type of behavior that we don't condone at any level. He will be reprimanded, and it will be handled internally."
On Aug. 28, sports columnist Bernie Miklasz wrote that he was disturbed by "infighting and politics" within the Rams organization, and said executives owe any head coach their support.
"Be it [Mike] Martz or another man, I don't care who sits in the head coach's office at Rams Park. The head coach should be backed, not back-stabbed, by associates," Miklasz wrote.
Suleiman left a message on Miklasz's voice mail, stating, in part, "tell your source that I'm not a back-stabber, I'm a [expletive] throat slasher, and he'll know the difference before it's all said and done."
Suleiman, director of football administration, has worked for the Rams for six years. He assists president of football operations Jay Zygmunt on salary cap issues and contract negotiations.
Shaw said the phone message showed "a lack of judgment. I really don't understand it, to be honest with you."

Next week Kevin Slaten goes out to Rams park - a security guard called in to the radio show and said Kevin will be arrested if he attempts to enter the building. Kevin said, "I pray they try to arrest me. Good stuff.

Who is Kevin Slaten?

He's a sports talk radio afternoon drive host in St. Louis. His nickname is "The King" but, in my opinion, he's just a horse's ass who spouts venom and reminds me of a sports version of Rush Limbaugh.
He despises Mike Martz and calls Rams Park "The Kremlin." That will indeed be interesting if he goes out there.

Whats his beef? They (St. Louis) inherited a winning franchise.

He is an ass, that I agree on.. but I like the way he calls out Martz after a "wtf?" Rams game. I think people are getting tired of Martz and the way he calls a game and uses up challenges like they were snickers bars.

I concur. And I think (and have thought) Martz should be fired ASAP.
Honestly, when the Rams' kick returner stepped out of bounds at his own one yard line to start the Niners game, I started laughing out loud and then said mockingly to no one in particular, "Martz will probably challenge that."
And then, merciful heaven, he did. :rolleyes:

Fortunetly I missed that call as I was just getting back from my daughter's soccer game.. but I wouldn't expect anything less from Martz. I've been a big backer of Martz the last few years, but even I'm growing tired of his arrogance and inability to playcall at least a somewhat understandable game. It would be one thing if he fixed some of his oversights, but we keep hearing the same bs from him week after week. "We'll fix that" over and over......

The best part of that was Johnson pointing down to his feet for the ref.... with his foot clearly on the line. I kept thinking, "Why are you pointing to your foot? You are only incriminating yourself!"
I can only imagine what he was telling the ref. "It may appear as though my foot is on the line, but that's because you are at a bad angle."

Yeah, that whole scene was ludicrous. What possible outcome could the Rams be seeking? "Look, I'm still in bounds!" "Look, my feet just made me look like an idiot!" Maybe that the ball was out of bounds before he touched it? (in which case it wasn't even close).

Such is the farce that is the Rams special teams. Who need to practice it anyway?

Martz is just an awful, awful playcaller. Where did he get this whole "genius" rep? It's the glasses, isn't it? He probably would have been fired by now if it weren't for the glasses.
Glad he was around when they played the Panthers in the NFC championship game a few years ago, though.
