Don Criqui (play-by-play) and Bob Trumpy (color commentator).
Yes, I had to look it up; it was almost five years before I was born.
On a serious note, am I the 1st ROD member to post "C'est La Vie".
If so, shouldn't there be some type of Prize?

Little meaningless trivia ... and, then I will stop.You may be the first to ever use that reference. but...
I used to work near the real Soup Nazi place, and frequently went there for lunch ... before the episode.
It really was great soup!
The guy (looked a lot like the actor, without the stache) was not rude ... just non-communicative; and customers did not step into a building ... you stood outside a store-front for service.
Fair enough. I wasn't born at that time, so I wouldn't know the commentators. I'll say you're right.
Albert has a very distinctive voice. It took me a few listens and some research on 1980s NBC NFL broadcast pairings to confirm it was Griese with Marv.
So in the winter time, when you really WANT soup….
That soup better have been AMAZING!
That reminded me, when we were kids and would call grocery stores and ask if they had Prince Albert in a can. If they said yes, we would say you better let him out before he suffocates. For all you who don't understand Prince Albert was a brand of chewing tobacco.
This definitely reflects the Younger Posters from the Old Timers (that would be us) because all five of the broadcasters mentioned (Haden, Trumpy, Criqui, Marv Albert and Griese) had distinct voices and styles that you and I (and a couple other elderly ROD members) heard many times over many years.
Pipe tobacco actually. My dad smoked a pipe one day a year (Christmas Eve). It was Prince Albert tobacco in a tin can.
I don't think it's Donald's nature to tease. Until Donald definitively says “no,” I'm totally convinced Aaron Donald is returning!!
I mean, we all know what kind of competitor he is. Why wouldn’t he come back. My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ…. Give AD99 a dream/vision as you did Samuel… May he return to my Rams. Thanks you Lord in advance!
The longer this goes on without a strong denial from AD, the more I think it's happening. I don't want to set myself up for a huge letdown but at this point, it's too late.
I'm sure one thing that is on McVay's mind is how we didn't close out games last season. Having big leads and not being able to shut the other team down. With Garrett and Donald closing out games we win all 3 against Seattle and the Philly game. Philly game should never have come down to the FG.
This current sense would have closed out those games. Add in Donald and the games might have been closed out from the first whistle.
We keep talking about Garrett/Donald, and rightfully so, but it’s caused us to overlook how dominant our defensive backfield can be, especially with that pressure. We have a chance to see a top offense and defense this year
Maybe I'm reading too much into this, but I actually think the silence is a good sign.
Since the Garrett signing, AD hasn't publicly shut down the comeback rumors. If he had zero interest, it would've been easy to say so. Instead, the speculation continues while training camp gets closer.
Does it mean he's coming back? No. But "no news" could mean he's seriously exploring the idea, getting himself in shape, and seeing how he feels before deciding.
Until AD says it's over, I'll keep believing there's a chance.
Has anyone else heard anything?
