This was the most embarrassing game I think I've experienced in my entire life as a Rams fan. I am probably the last one that would leave a game before it's over, but had I been at that game I would have been gone at half time. As it was I suffered through most of the game online until about the last 6 minutes and well quite frankly, I can only handle being a massichist for so long.
I'm glad that Bulger was benched but it should have been done before the 2nd half, that would have made a bigger statement than doing it in the 2nd half. Bulger should be left on the sidelines holding the clipboard the rest of the season.
For some odd reason it appears that Bulger thinks this $65 million contract makes him immune having to own up to his inability to play football. He seems to think it's OK to dismiss what people think or how his fans feel. On the sideline he looked as if he just didn't give a damn.
It's enough of this crap, the team doesn't need and the fans don't deserve it, that's for sure.
Sure benching Bulger isn't the overall answer, but it's a start. Haslett can't come back this week and put him back in. He needs to stick to his guns if he wants to send a message loud and clear. "Don't perform, don't play!" The season may be a wash but that doesn't mean you allow players to play at such a sub-par caliber.
The next serveral years are not going to be much better and I guess it's time for all of us to get use to that fact and do what we can to be patient and hope that someday this organization will once again regain it's respect in the NFL.
