Never been to Boston. Only the airport in New York. So I don't have any personal experience there. But a co-worker of mine decided to take a vacation to the east coast and spend time in New York and Boston. He said if he ever does that trip again he won't go to New York. According to him Boston was not only a cleaner town, the people there were much nicer.

NY is an incredible city to visit. Not sure why anyone would ever want to go to Boston. Get NY out of your system but there is little reason to vacation in Boston. Boston for vacation?? And then go back?? He might have good reason otherwise he needs to travel agent.

This is so tough, yet at some point we know it's inevitable. Kupp is everything that is right about a player in this sport. Wish they could have restructured and found 1 more year.

Again, maybe I just dont hear it from other teams because I dont give a rats ass about them. But there is a rather unsettling list of players who are unhappy in how they were moved out from the Rams
I get it, its a business.
For the record, I'm participating in this thread like its a "vent thread" and tomorrow will be a new day. Lol
Ernest Jones wasn't happy about how Seahawks treated him. Russell Wilson too. Khalil Mack wasn't a fan of leaving the Raiders. Diggs in both Minnesota and Buffalo, Saquon with the Giants, and Tyreek Hill when the chiefs moved on. This happens all the time.

Smart teams move off guys too early rather than too late.
Only if they move early enough that they can still get good value for them. Like Richard Seymour when Patriots traded him to the Raiders for a late first round pick.

This move seems like a bit late. However, his contract was due in 2021. It would have been tough yo trade him when injured the last few years.

So maybe your comment doesn’t exactly apply to this situation. Maybe trading him at the deadline last October would have been more in line.

This move comes with a bunch in f risk. Despite recent drafting success, there is no guarantee, or maybe even a likelihood that whomever they bring in to replace Kupp can duplicate his production even at its worst.

Coop has made so many big time, game saving catches and monster extra effort plays that he's the man who has replaced Jack Snow as my all freaking time favorite , BIG TIME player in Rams lore. He always made that big play, at exactly the right time.

Love Kupp always and forever

It’s a business first

2022: got injured and missed time
2023: got injured and missed time
2024: got injured and missed time

Sometimes you gotta bite the bullet and move on

Some things are more important than a championship ring... and trading away a player like Kupp who wants to end his career as a Ram is wrong...
I'm disgusted over it...

Being Coop was from the northwest I hope he doesn’t end up in Seattle. Or especially SF. That stuff comes back to bite you every time.
No chance we trade him to either of them. Which is not to say he can't find his way to one of them (I'm looking at you Ernest...)

I can not understand why anyone would want to "vacation" in any big, dirty city.
Natural beauty is where its at.
Never been to New York or Yellowstone. No desire to see NY but I sure would like to see Yellowstone.
Heck, I need to go check out Yosemite and its a lot closer than Yellowstone.

Keeping him for another season would be a bigger mistake than getting something in a trade.

Appreciate his time here, always be a beloved Ram but the fact is IF he really wanted to stay, he could of made that happen.

Will never root against him unless he is playing the Rams.

No one can replace Kupp's production... I'd even argue he can't anymore.

New York and Yellowstone are two of the most gorgeous places you could ever go. Do both!

And do you remember Jack's acrimonious departure in 1976?

I love Cooper Kupp. One of my dogs is named after him.

This is business and I support this 100%

This is about championships and I would not be as confident with this team if they didn't think like this.

I will miss him very much.

But not as much as I miss AD. And this team brought in V8 and Fiske to make up for it.

We can be a dynasty in the making if we put emotions aside.

GO RAMS!!!

"New York" ? I hear it smells like piss and the rats are as big as cats and you seen them during the day. Nah.

I love the energy of NYC, especially Manhattan and the food? Stunning.

And…especially in summer. It smells like hot stale piss. I’m super sensitive to it because as a kid, I worked with pure ammonia and one time it got through my mask. Ever since then, I’ve been super sensitive to the smell of urine.

And the rats are bigger than cats. I saw a rat in the subway that was as big as a medium sized raccoon.

Rat that big, you start looking for big turtles with colored headbands…

What happens to Tutu ? IMO from to date he will finish his career with better than Kupp.He might need more seasons as well,but his upside,youth, & speed separates them.

D.Rob just going back to his game winner the Hags was impressive.Still Kupp is so clutch!! His TD against the jets in NY was spectacular as well.

If we move on from Kupp, TuTu and others being FA’s… the Rams have some serious work to do at WR.
