Quote:I was up there the week after the draft.  It just didn't seem like a football town for me.  They seemed to love the Cardinals and the Blues, but no chatter about the Rams....the week after the draft!  I usually wear a ton of Jag gear in NFL cities to strike up conversations.  I didnt have one all week.

I spent a month there working around the draft a couple of years ago, and got to know several sports fans there who were my coworkers.  I still talk to them pretty regularly, and to a person, they've basically said that the Rams are a fun distraction when they're winning, but that when they're mediocre or bad, nobody cares.  You'd be hard pressed to find a lot of true Rams fans there.  Throw a rock in any direction and I'll guarantee if you hit someone who is a sports fan there, they're Cardinal fans first and foremost.
