Rams cut best receiver in franchise history

The Rams and Isaac Bruce did not agree to a restructuring of his contract, and Isaac has been released, news scooped by Bernie Miklasz on 1380 in the last hour or so. They're talking as though there is little chance Isaac will return to the team this time around.

Yeah, as a season ticket holder, this was the move I really wanted the Rams to make. Dump the most popular player since the team moved here to make room for mother fucking worthless Drew Bennett.

There's the move that'll fire up the fanbase for next season.

It is hard right now not to hope this worthless franchise has an even worse season than last year. You're not going to improve on Isaac Bruce in free agency (only Randy Moss and Bernard Berrian had more receptions among available FA WRs, and the Rams can't realistically afford either, even after cutting Isaac), and you're not going to improve on him in the draft. I'm not against drafting a WR, but the rookie should take time from worthless Bennett, with Isaac moving to the slot.

The Rams could have kept Isaac and the fans happy, worked out a 2-year deal and let him retire as a Ram. Instead, they treat Isaac, and us, like dirt.

Nice work, assholes. I'm REALLY looking forward to the rest of this offseason now.
