Stop Whining, St. Louis; We Deserve Another Chance
By Miklasz, Bernie

The Rams are vanished, headed to Los Angeles, and in St. Louis they are in the early throes of a hot-blooded tantrum. Some rather vitriolic analysis is coming over the transom as angry journalists and bitter team boosters accuse the Rams of treason and other high crimes.

Stan Kroenke is being cast as some sort of football version of Ma Barker - a sinister character who hijacked a Brinks truck and singlehandedly caused St. Louis to go bankrupt. The man with a team and no conscience.

I gather that they will not be throwing Stan a farewell soiree in St. Louis. In St. Louis, he is about as popular as a liberal Democrat pushing a tax increase.

And you know what? I don't care what these people say.

I don't care what Stan Kroenke did, or did not do, in St. Louis - though the record shows that he has owned this franchise for 20 seasons, and it has made the playoffs in five of those years.

The first day of the rest Kroenke 's life began on a glorious Tuesday afternoon in downtown Inglewood, in a jammed, jubilant convention center room that's a long Todd Gurley touchdown gallop from the rising stadium.

Sorry, this is our party, we deserved it, and sore losers are not invited. We lost a football team twenty one years ago, and no one felt sorry for Los Angeles. As we had our little revival meeting Tuesday, we easily could disregard the caterwauling from the land of Ferguson, violent crime, declining population, and Cracker Barrels.

St. Louis defaulted on its team. Get over it. We hear that the Arch is lovely this time of the year.

As for the Rams and Kroenke, I care only about what happens from this day forward. The St. Louis Rams are dead. The Los Angeles Rams are alive. This city has been assailed for its alleged indifference for football. Kroenke has been condemned for his alleged indifference for the Rams.

Today, we both start over.

We will judge Kroenke and on how he handles this franchise, this city, and our trust, when the Rams kick off in 2016. …

I dont understand, did Bernie actually write this?

I dont understand, did Bernie actually write this?

Bernie wrote almost that exact piece but in reverse. When the Rams left LA he wrote an article just like this but telling LA to quit whining cause the Rams belonged to St Louis now. Karma is indeed a bitch.
