And you've got an excellent point, Chris. I know, as a Cards fan, I love the fact that Musial, Brock, & Gibson are so often found around the redbirds.

But, as you point out, that same brand of franchise loyalty just doesn't seem to be evident in today's NFL. Just like you, I wish it were different. However, in the case of Faulk, he is the world's leading expert in the RB position in Martz' offense. Maybe he just likes to contribute where he can, even if it is on Satan's favorite team.
