Re: City of St.Louis owes the support to our Rams.

From what I can tell, St. Louis HAS supported the Rams. Most of what you are probably basing this is the week 16 blackout. That would have been a hard sell for any losing team in the NFL. The Rams had 11 straight years of sellouts of 65000+ in the dome when the majority of the teams have been sub-.500. That is support no matter how you spin it . Even on the day of the blackout, Rams fans answered the call by putting 63000 butts in the seats. That is pretty good for a bad day. Did you see the stands for the Jets/Miami game on Christmas day in Miami. It was baron. There were just as many Jets fans there as Phins fans. The Raiders never filled up the Colisseum this year.

And as for being invaded by Bears and Cheifs fans invading the Dome, first consider the geography of the teams, then consider how loud that dome is, then consider how the Rams played during those games. Case closed.
