Meet the Fordham Rams — New York City’s undefeated college football team, the pride of the Bronx. F-U! F-U! F-U!
Meet the Fordham Rams. The proud football team of Fordham University in the Bronx, New York.

The Rams have a revered football legacy — ever heard of a guy named Vince Lombardi?
Before Lombardi became a legendary NFL coach, winning the first two Super Bowls with the Green Bay Packers and having the Super Bowl trophy named after him, he was one of the "Seven Blocks Of Granite" on Fordham's offensive line from 1934-36. Naturally, Fordham's athletic center is named after him.
Lately, Fordham football hasn't quite lived up to Lombardi's example. In 2010, Quarterback John Skelton became the first Ram selected in the NFL draft since 1968. In three seasons in the league, he has appeared in 20 games and has 63.0 passer ranking.

You might have seen Skelton with the Cincinnati Bengals on HBO Hard Knocks this season. He was cut.
He did recently sign with the San Francisco 49ers. He's a 6 ft. 8 in, 240 lbs. He'll probably bounce around the NFL for at least a little while.
