Traffic, Rams settling into LA

Cornerback Trumaine Johnson has a cool place to live Tyler Lockett Jerseyin Hollywood. Defensive end Robert Quinn got a rental house in the suburbs while he looks for a permanent family home. The Los Angeles Rams are http://www.officialseahawksnflstore.com/AUTHENTIC+12TH+FAN+JERSEYsettling into their new city, and any trepidation about their franchise's move is quickly losing out to excitement about their fresh start. Their first few days in Southern California's irresistibly pleasant weather have been pretty great, too. ''I woke up today and I looked outside, and California just smells good,'' Johnson said. ''It tastes good, you know?'' Exactly five months before their official return to the Coliseum, the Rams got together http://www.officialseahawksnflstore.com/AUTHENTIC+AHTYBA+RUBIN+JERSEYMonday for the first day of their official offseason workouts. They're training west of Los Angeles in coastal Oxnard through June, using the residential hotel and attached complex that hosts the Dallas Cowboys' annual training camp. They're also doing plenty of work off the field. Johnson and safety T.J. McDonald are among the California natives on the Rams' roster serving as field guides while their teammates look for apartments, restaurants and clubs in their unfamiliar new home. ''Everybody has different questions,'' said McDonald, the former USC Trojans star. ''Some guys are from small towns or in the James White JerseySouth, wondering if there's movie stars going left and right or whatever. But I just told them, 'This is really regular life. Just be yourself, be humble, show up to work like we do in St. Louis, and we'll be all right.''' Many Rams arrived over the last two weeks with not much knowledge of the area beyond a vague fear of LA's legendary traffic, but they're starting to see the possibilities. Before the move,http://www.patriotsofficialnflproshop.com/AUTHENTIC+JAMIE+COLLINS+JERSEY receiver Tavon Austin said his knowledge of Los Angeles was confined to one prominent local landmark: ''Kobe Bryant.'' Austin moved to California a few weeks before most of his teammates to settle in. So far, the speedy wideout thinks he'll like it here. ''I came from Baltimore to West Virginia to St. Louis, so I never had great weather like this all year round,'' Austin said. ''That's a plus. You can always be working out. I'm really thankful for it.''
