From Bad to Ugly

The St. Louis Rams got their tails handed to them again this week, 27-3 by the Chicago Bears. That's no surprise. The Rams have given up on their season and mailed it in again. But, now it's getting ugly. Offensive lineman Richie Incognito has taken to taunting Rams fans. Those are the same people who are paying his salary.

After the game yesterday, Incognito was being booed by the departing crowd. He had been penalized during the game which drew the wrath of those in attendance. As Incognito left the field, he removed his helmet and cupped his hand to his ear. In effect telling the Rams customers I can't hear you...boo me a little louder.

Today Rams head coach Jim Haslett said he had not seen the incident. In addressing the situation with reporters Haslett said Incognito would not be disciplined. This is the same Incognito the NFL fined $35,000 six weeks ago for verbally abusing a game official.
