You know-I keep repeating this mantra but I never saw behavior like that portrayed in your attached photo growing up and watching the Rams at the Coliseum. And if you google those games you won't see it either. What's important to me is the sociological question: Why? What has happened over the years to cause this in your face behavior. I see it everywhere-not just at football games. I see it on message boards like this , I see it on the roads, I see it in movies, I have a friend who has a simple answer to most problems: far too many people.But for sure football stadiums are not a model of civility.

but that's a larger question I have no answer for. The trash talk, the online trash talk, this and that.

I am more concerned the attitudes of some here. I wonder if The Herd got a bunch of seats in a away town, say 20 of us and there were a couple who couldn't make it so they sold them to some fans of the home team

then Todd Gurley scores a TD and sees all the Rams jerseys and leaps into our little section and maybe Watkins and Goff join in and Gurley gets shoved down by a let's call it a Cowboys fan...would we think Gurley was stupid, and Watkins and Goff because we were in Dallas and the stands was the "domain" of the fans...

please.

So, to connect the two things, the incivility you talk about is reflected into the attitudes of a few here. They arethe ones calling for Long's actions to be an assault or "he should have known better"

We are them, the ones you mention in your post...the uncivilized.
