Today’s the first of several do-or-die days for the lock out.  Judge Susan Nelson will be ruling, most likely against the owners once again, and this case will be coming to St. Louis to be heard in the 8th Circuit Court.  Experts say the hearing could come as early as end of May or the beginning of June.  It just means more waiting and wondering.

Hope we hear some good news.

Hope the Rams are really ready as they say they are if all of a sudden free agency is allowed to start.  We have Billy Devaney’s word on it, right?

1) 101Sports.com: Tony Softli write a quick run down of the record 25 players who will be attending the draft in NYC tomorrow night.  One of our locals, Mizzou’s Blaine Gabbert tweeted he’s already there with his family and has a busy day ahead.  Good luck tomorrow night!

2) Julio should be a Ram!

We have some action in the Top 10, I’m told. Atlanta, seeking explosive outside threat, trying to get way up for Green/Julio. Unlikely, tho.
I respect your reporting Mr. King but I hope that information is wrong!
3) PFT.NBCSports.com: And the most disturbing news I’ve read this morning.  Some NFL players have been purposely bombing their baseline concussion tests so they have a better chance of passing one after they take a hit.  The biggest names to come out of this report is Peyton Manning.  Uh oh.  Glad I’m not a college or youth football coach this morning who has to explain this one to his players.
