Live from Southern California. This is the Jim Rome Show.

I want to pick up on something that we talked about at the end of the show yesterday because it's an interesting topic and an awkward topic and there's an update to the topic.

I'm talking about that awkward situation developing in the Rams locker room a

situation we only know about thanks to the morning after podcast aka the Kelly Stafford podcast. Now if you missed any of

that here is what she said about the challenges her old man, Matthew Stafford, is facing in connecting with a very young locker room.

Kind of crazy. So Matthew's been in the league a long time, right? We've been talking about this.

He's like the difference in the locker room has changed so significantly and they have a lot of

rookies on their team that year. They're very young. So this will be a very interesting season. You know, they're young, they're learning, but he's like, I feel like I can't connect because in the old days you would come out of come out of practice you shower this during training camp shower people would be playing cards people would be interacting who knows what they're doing you know but they're they're doing something together they're playing ping pong they have a

a tournament going on doing something you know like they're at least talking he said now they get done with

practice or get done with meetings during training camp and they go straight to their phones.

They say like, sir to him and shit. He's like, no, no, no, we're on the same level here.

We're both playing in this league. Like, let me get to know you.

They say like, sir, and belief.

Let me tell you something.

That's some kind of clip.

I mean, even a day later, that thing hits even harder that clip got my attention right away

but even more so the next day it's an attention grabbing clip it spicy, it's direct, it's not vague at all. There is no gray

area in that clip. That is the wife of a Super Bowl winning quarterback just spilling the tea on what's going on in that

locker room in real time. And that in and of itself is kind of unusual. So unusual that it made me ask, what exactly is going on here?

I mean that's a really aggressive take. Is there more to this? Are the Stafford's pissed off right now?

And more importantly, what do the rest of the Rams

think about this?
