For those of you who lived through a terrible baseball season the NFL, NBA, and NHL season brings hope and most importantly a chance at the playoffs. Well, my NFL season started with a big fat ZERO! My Rams were shutout by the Seahawks in a game that was disgusting and left me with nothing more than a "what the hell just happened" moment.

I knew my Rams weren't going to be doing anything big this season but starting off the year with a big fat egg, come on guys you couldn't even get into field goal territory and kick one through the two yellow poles?! After going 5-27 over the past two seasons I was hoping for the team to at least match those 5 wins this season. At the moment, I don't see 5 wins happening but you never know. With a new coach and the power of Steven Jackson in the backfield the Rams might be able to pull of a few wins this year. It's only the first game and there is time to pull together some wins. I'm still optimistic.

I am not one to shy away when people ask me why I cheer for the Rams. It all started when they took the Super Bowl in 1999 against the Titans. I love the fast pace game that Warner had with Faulk, Holt, and Bruce. Greatest show on turf baby! Ever since that season I have been a Rams fan, through the great times and the shit times. Maybe I jumped on the wagon during the Super Bowl run but unlike others, I've stayed on for the bumpy ride.

Oh, when the day comes when the Rams are winning again, oh how sweet it will be.
