I think it is important to embrace all of a teams history, The good and the bad. St Louis did a very poor job of retaining the history of this great franchise. To them, the Rams were more of an expansion team than an actual team with 50+ years of history. The actively severed ties with many of the great Rams players (Youngblood was especially vocal about that). We need to make sure the great players that have played for this team regardless of the actual city that they played in feel at home. We should celebrate Faulk, Bruce, Holt in the same breath we celebrate Dickerson, Deacon, and Youngblood. They all wore the Horns and did us proud.

I've already heard LA radio guys say the GSOT never existed as far as they are concerned.

That's just dumb.

Guys like Bruce, Holt, and Faulk are part of the fabric of the great history of the Rams.

We as fans have to make sure that the GSOT Rams (actually all Rams players that played in St Louis) are never forgotten. Let's not do what we called out the St Louis fans for doing. Our history is our history. It's not Cleveland Rams history, It's not Los Angeles Rams history and it's not St Louis Rams History. It is RAMS history. One Team, One history Period!
We have to remember that will be getting a lot of new fans that will have absolutely zero connection with those guys. We will have to deal with "new" fans that will come off as idiots.

When we get a gameday suite, we can invite some of the StL players to join us for the game. I wonder if Prohel will show? :)

That would be incredible. We could become the ambassadors of good LA will. But must have the suite to entice them.
