Warner, Faulk, and Bruce want the Rams in STL.
This is very bush league.
I just linked an article. You want St. Louis sunshine, lollipops, and rainbows? Go to a St. Louis board.
I want the Rams where I think they belong: LA. I think St. Louis is a terrible NFL city. It's a baseball town. Plus, I will never look favorably on a city that needs to steal a team.
That appears to be the narrative of the national media. However, back when the Rams had a legit product-over a decade ago- STL was regarded as one of the be toughest places to play. They had the whole crowd noise thing going for them and everything. SEA understands how cool that is now.
I did go to several games last year, though. I'd be lying if I said I was not disappointed with the crowd much of the time. It's just not fair to expect cities to show up like their team is a world beater when they already knew career back up QB's would be starting for 16 games with poor OL play. You're kidding yourself if you think LA would have handled it better.
You know how it goes though, friend. NFL is the "what have you done for me lately" league. Rams look to a considerably better team with the additions of Foles, Gurley, and an even better DL/defense. If STL doesn't show up this year then I'll be livid STL, beyond mad. I myself may throw them under the bus. There is no excuse. They know they gotta show up to change their recent image and have a much improved team to boot. No excuses this year for STL fans, zero.
But with that said I have confidence they will show up and a box will be checked in the league's eyes.
And for what's it's worth, I wasnt attacking you for posting that. I've seen former players taking sides for months now. I just don't really like that because what they say or think has no weight over the outcome and yet it breeds hard feeling within a team's fan base. But yeah, that doesn't matter here though because this is a SEA site. Point taken.
