I have to respectfully disagree with that...
The city has dealt with the worst five year stretch in NFL history, as detailed in the article, AND has a lease cloud yet remaining. That is a tough combo.
I can't blame the fans too much on this one, although I wish the dome were packed myself.
I understand that we have been bad, really bad, but if I lived within a 10 mile radius of EJD, my ass would be there. Just saying. I also believe no matter where the team is located their aren't enough fans like us here at ROD, that would fill every seat up.Thordaddy said:Although I have a notoriously metalic ear for such things, METHINKS Barri was poking funSTL-Rams said:Barrison6 said:Because the citizens of St. Louis take for granted our beloved RAMS!

All that aside,I think the futility is part of it and if we had been just an average of 8-8 over the Rams tenure in St.L it would be sold out.
I checked the weather for Sunday and it's calling for rain so IMO it'll sell out.

These are similar reasons why the Rams relocated to St. Louis. Fault or not, pack the stadium or prepare to move. L.A. fans still love the Rams, but it's not love that keeps a team in place. It's MONEY.STL-Rams said:Barrison6 said:Because the citizens of St. Louis take for granted our beloved RAMS!

Two more posts ...Angry Ram said:I wish that ppl would support the Rams no matter what, make the place so tough to play.
Chiefs, Bills, Jets, Redskins, Raiders etc...these are teams that have been bad more times than not lately yet their stadiums are always packed and screaming.
I guess it's sort of unfair, the Rams don't have much history in St. Louis except the GSOT like those teams.

I think the economy could have been part of the issue.X said:Some interesting points, and I don't know how anyone else feels, but the record wouldn't mean jack to me if I lived in the area. I'd go to every one I had a chance to go to (if financially possible). I've only been to 5 Rams games, and that's not nearly enough.
Then get a second job, bitches. Just make sure you stipulate up front that you can't work on Sundays.DR RAM said:I think the economy could have been part of the issue.X said:Some interesting points, and I don't know how anyone else feels, but the record wouldn't mean jack to me if I lived in the area.
