Been a fan since the day the rams beat the colts 34-10 for the Coastal Division Championship. Maxie Baughn was my first favorite player and Willie Ellison was my first favorite 'underdog' player. Willie proved me right by being the rams best player in 1971 per Pro-Football Reference. And Maxie was a great choice being in the middle of 4 pro bowls capped off by his last pro bowl in 1971 when he also made All-Pro. Damn good LB'er playing behind the fearsome foursome in their heyday. My favorites are usually the underdogs: Doug Smith; Nolan Cromwell; LeRoy Irvin; Kurt Warner; Larry Brooks; Irv Pankey; Kevin Greene; D'Marco Farr, Az-Hakim, et al. Georgia (God Rest Her Soul) was the Trent Dilfer of owners. And I still hate john shaw for screwing Eric (The Great) Dickerson.
Although disappointed, I stayed a fan when they moved to The Loo. Joined the st. Louis Post-Dispatch Rams Talk in 2008.
When the rams moved back to The City of Lost Angels, most st. louis rams fans left, but those that stayed are very bitter. After initially trying to be understandable with them, I've been giving 'em Holy Hell ever since and they deserve it. Born and raised in SoCal. My 2nd home is Texas (pronounced Tayhaus in Spanish), my 3rd home is Arkansas. (best folks I've ever been around) A rams fan for life. No doubts. No questions.
