Another Clue You're Not In Philadelphia
Posted by Derek
It's funny, everyone always talks about St. Louis as if it's some sort of sports nirvana. The fans are always polite, but knowledgeable, and players can perform without the same sorts of "pressure" they are under in a place like Philadelphia.
All of which may be true, but humor me for a minute and check out the Eagles coverage on our local newspaper website. I count nine stories about the Eagles, plus a couple of wire pieces on the rest of the league.
Now hop on over to the Rams section of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch and what do we see? One story on the Rams and the same wire piece on the guy who got shot.
One.
Four days before the season opener.
Inasmuch as this means I should really have considered becoming a Rams blogger -- seems like zero MSM competition out there -- I think it's safe to say that most of us are pretty darn happy to have things the way they are here in Philadelphia.
