Congratulations to the The Los Angeles Rams

 The Los Angeles Rams defeated the Cincinatti Bengals 23-20 on Sunday to become the Super Bowl Champions.  This year the Super Bowl delivered a close, entertaining game. The game was packed with potential story lines no matter which team one.

The way the game came out the hometown team won the Super Bowl once again this year. Last year the Tampa Bay Buccaneers won in Tampa, this year the Rams won in Los Angeles. Quarterback Matthew Stafford finally won a Super Bowl in his twelfth year in the NFL. The Rams won their first Super Bowl as a team in Los Angeles. It was also the organizations first Super Bowl Championship since 2000 when they were the St Louis Rams. 

Highlights from the Big Game...

Congratulations to the Los Angeles Rams!

Football Trade

Just some more football talk here. Fox Sports is reporting the Cincinnati Bengals have traded Quarterback Carson Palmer to the Oakland Raiders for a first round pick next year, and a second/possible first in 2013. Just looking at this story everything says this is a win for the Bengals.

They survived the stare down with Carson Palmer. Palmer missed six games and the Bengals went 4-2. Yes, Carson got his trade but he had to be a bit nervous and it cost him six games. Cincinnati looked tough but not stubborn since a suitor came a long. The Bengals didn't bungle the deal either getting an extra first round pick in the first round will help them. A first or second round pick the following year is a bonus. A sweet deal as some quarterbacks have been traded for just a third round pick.

The Oakland Raiders are 4-2 as well. They might have overpaid. However, with their quarterback out with an injury they needed to do something. It was a flashy trade. It is a big name. Oakland is hoping they got the quarterback to get them to the playoffs this season in Carson Palmer. They hope he doesn't come in out of shape or has a learning curve with the playbook. It was a gamble, a bold move, but that kind of fits for the Raiders.

Here is his press conference:
