Maybe move to California like the RAMS did and join the PAC?


So, get limp dick syndrome after flash on the pan success and pray LA shows up?

If only it were so simple.

Good troll but St Louis Rams had easily the worst pro fan base of the Missouri teams. In my opinion.


They probably had the most rabid hungry fans during the GSOT days, even as it was being dismantled. It’s honestly impressive how often fans still showed up despite clear indications of tanking the team ala Jeff “ain’t no 7-9 shite” Fisher.

Speaking of that, how did Clemson pluck Isaiah Simmons out of KS of all places before they became well-known nationally?

I hate to say it, but Mizzou basketball has strong comparisons to the Rams.

The Battlehawks fan base proved that Rams were playing their cards horrendously.

I wish y’all would give this shite up and ship the name down river where it belongs so the Grizzlies didn’t have a retarded name

I honestly believe the recruiting sites are horrendous at evaluating Midwest talent or anything away from a coast for that matter.

I believe that attributes to why so many lower level schools in the Midwest in JUCO, D1-AA and D-2 have tremendous success because of the unknown diamonds that walks through their doors

Florida pro sports fans have no leg to stand on when it comes to critcizing other fanbases.

Venables being a Kansas guy I’m sure helped. And he wanted to go to Arkansas but they didn’t want him

It's also amazing seeing all the famous people that come from Missouri that leave and never return to the state rarely. The one that hurts the most is probably Sam Walton who's a Mizzou alum even.

It is. For whatever reason, the gov't leaders just can't get out of their own way.

Kronke as well. That mofo went from being a Mizzou alumni, to possibly the most hated person in the state when it comes to sports lol

I also think the damn "rebranding" when we switched conferences was horrendous. However, our icy white jerseys are fire as hell but took forever to get them in the rotation.

Almost as big of a joke as the R&R hall of game being in Cleveland

No one cares about hockey (although I highly respect it). Give us the Blues, and y’all take the Washington Bullets old name. Would be very appropriate for Saint Louis in the current year

Yeah and people are dumb

You think anyone in their right mind thinks of Saint Louis with blues music before thinking of Memphis? Or the Mississippi delta?

Lol, of course not.

Y’all have that arch and what not, and shitty beer you sold to Belgium, and a helluva a baseball team. Not much blues music though

ETA almost forgot about the throwed rolls about halfway in between. I’ll give that one to you guys as well

Memphis doesn't care about the Grizzlies. Move em to Nashville.
