Did the Los Angeles Rams take advice from actress Brenda Song, known for her roles in Mindy Kaling's new show, Running Point and The Suite Life of Zach and Cody?
Turns out the actress who's also married to Macaulay Culkin is a huge Rams fan. And she knows ball.
She recently went on a rant about the Rams that went viral -- she was asked what she would have done to stop Saquon Barkley from running all over the Los Angeles squad in the playoffs, and her answer was perfect: she ranted at defensive coordinator Chris Shula and declared, "We don't have a run stopper. ... We cannot stop the run."
Well guess what? The Rams listened! They signed nose tackle Poona Ford, who was a former Charger, and he'll help stuff the run.
Good work, Brenda.

Brenda Song Dropped By Agent After The Social Network
Brenda Song says she was dropped by her agent after taking a role in — wait for it — The Social Network. I know — of all things! Let me explain. If you remember, Brenda appeared in the David Fincher film as Eduardo Saverin's girlfriend, Christy Ling. It was a small role, but obviously one of a lifetime, which is why Brenda decided to take it. Unfortunately, her agents at the time had other ideas in mind, and when Brenda chose to go with The Social Network over a starring role, they dropped her! Brenda explained the whole situation in a recent conversation captured by The Wrap. She said, "There was another project that I had booked when I also booked The Social Network and my agents very much pushed me for the other project. [They're] like, 'It's a lead role, it's a big movie. This is amazing, this is it.'" "I was like, 'David Fincher is one of my favorite directors of all time,'" Brenda continued. "They're like, 'It's two scenes,' but I'm like, 'This is what I really wanted.' And my agents dropped me over this decision." Brenda recalled being "really upset" at the time because she'd been trying to find her footing after The Suite Life of Zack & Cody — but looking back, she's glad she followed her gut. "You have to follow your gut instinct because it's your life. It's about your life experience, it's not about the outcome," Brenda shared. "I realize now that for me, when I make a project, I'm not making it for the final product. I love the process, I love being on set, I love my castmates. My favorite moments of my job are between 'action' and 'cut,' and growing up on a set, it's where I feel most safe, so I always try to say I don't ever want to do a project that I wouldn't stand on the firing line for because it's not a final product, it's about your experience." "But yeah, I thought I fucked up at that moment," she laughed, "but I guess I didn't." I surely hope so! You can catch Brenda on Running Point now and check out the clip of her remarks here.

Jared Verse challenging Aaron Donald to a workout went exactly how you would expect
Aaron Donald was one of the most dominant defensive players the NFL has ever seen over his 10-year career for the Los Angeles Rams, recognized for intense training regimens that made his opponents look like light-work come Sundays (remember the knives?? -- who cares if they were fake). Just two years removed from his early retirement as a three-time Defensive Player of the Year and eight-time All-Pro, the now 34-year-old Donald is still someone to tread lightly with when it comes to any kind of physical contest. Advertisement Rams 2024 Defensive Rookie of the Year Jared Verse recently learned that the hard way after challenging Donald to a workout. This went exactly how you might expect. By the end of the video shared to social media by the NFL, Verse looked exhausted while Donald was still doing pushups. "You feel the difference?" Donald asked. "I feel it," Verse responded. Big credit to Verse for having the heart to even challenge Donald and then actually showing up for the workout. This will only make him a better player and the Rams a better team.
