I'm fairly sure there are 20+ teams in the NFL who if they player at the Rams would be super loud and remove the home field advantage.
I don't think the question is why are we so badly supported, but what do we do about it?
A certain stalwart of the Rams (and a guy whose posts I love as much as any!) sold his tickets yesterday for a princely sum. And who could blame him?
However, if Packer fans are prepared to pay into the thousands for tickets in LA, then why don't we see them dominating more stadiums?
I understand most live locally, but by the same token that representation will be in other cities. And if you're paying into the thousands for tickets, then airfare becomes less of a factor.
I doubt there are more Packers fans in LA than there are in NYC.
And looking at NYC, it will be chock full of Cowboys fans, yet they don't over run the stadium when they play the Giants. Nor do they in DC or Philly.
My hunch is that Rams fans are looking to sell tickets and make hay. Whereas Cowboys, Packers, Steelers fans (and many more) just don't even consider selling because their support and the pleasure they get from attending is worth more than money.
If the Rams were 7-0 going into the game yesterday in St Louis it would have been a very different story even though I understand the reasons are not just loyalty baed, but geographic too.
There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.
