Until I traveled back to St. Louis that first time, for a Ram's game, I was completely unaware of the in state rivalry with KC. So you bet, I can easily see how this is a tough one for you.

I HATE that effin war whoop chant -tomahawk chop done by every sports team (college and pro) that has some kind of Native American mascot (Chiefs, Braves, Indians, Redskins, Seminoles, etc). I mean... good grief.. was there only ONE?? Whenever the Chiefs played the Rams in St Louis, you couldn't walk down a street downtown without hearing swarms of Chiefs fans chanting it everywhere you went. And then, when the Rams left... the local Fox station kept airing Chiefs games the first couple of seasons. I wrote an email to the tv station telling them I resented the fact that they were trying to shove the Chiefs down my throat and that it wasn't gonna make me a Chiefs fan. A lot of Rams fans became Chiefs fans when the Rams left. Not us. We only watch the Chiefs when they're playing some other team we want to watch or if it's a game that's been touted as a good matchup.
