Thanks for sticking with the team Tim. If it's any consolation, before the Rams left St. Louis, they left many with the same sinking feeling you had when they left Orange County, and for all we know, also when they left Los Angeles, and before that, Cleveland.
Whenever I can steel my nerves enough to go tolerate Twitter, I read the team updates from the Rams social media account, and sure enough there are always salty St. Louisians having to say their piece. But true fans know the truth; your commitment to a team isn't always about geography. I mean, sure I support the Texans too here in Houston, but also run into Cowboy fans everywhere I go whether it's California, Virginia, Florida, or Mexico. Maybe that means that not all football fans are smart but I prefer to think it just means that people pick a team for any number of reasons besides geography, and it's all good. It's an example of freedom, and it's good. If I were Roger Goodell I would say the entire world is a fertile market for any team's merchandise to and that's good too.
Anyway, even after moving around the USA a few times I've stuck with the Rams. God help me, it hasn't been easy, they've been mostly awful, with one lucky streak when they got a Lombardi (Yes, lucky, because they clearly couldn't sustain it like those bastards running the Steelers, Seahawks, and Patriots). Now though, I think they finally got real football people running the show instead of accountants and lawyers, and now they'll at least be consistently competitive like they were in the 70s and 80s.
I don't know why the team played so listlessly in the first game against the Niners this year. I'm still unhappy about it. They could go a long way to proving they aren't frauds by winning most of the remaining games, starting with this one.
We cannot afford to lose this game against Shan Fran. Seattle has perhaps the easiest remaining schedule in the NFC.
