Re: 1969 Rams best and worst of times

July 16, 2019 10:24AM
I became a ram fan in 1967. I was 7. From that time through the 70’s the Rams were year in and year out a very talented team. They fielded teams sufficiently talented to have appeared in and even won a couple of Super Bowls. I was drawn to the team by the fearsome foursome (Merlin and Deacon my favorites), Gabriel and it seemed they always had a prolific running game. It was the best of times. But, they always came up short and often lost in the playoffs in uncharacteristic ways, it was the worst of times. So very disappointing. Needless to say, since 1967, even in the leanest stretch of years, the move, and return, I remain a die hard Rams fan! Did I mention the Horns!
